Apple's iPhone 18 Pro Could Feature Smaller Dynamic Island Instead of Hole Punch Cutout, Leaked Screen Protector Suggests
Apple may introduce a smaller Dynamic Island on the iPhone 18 Pro models as it refines its display design. Reports suggest the company is facing challenges with under-display technology, so it may reduce the cutout instead of adopting a full-screen design. Leaks indicate the cutout could shrink to around 13.49mm from 20.76mm. While one tipster says the change is limited to Pro models, another claims it may extend to the full lineup. The phones may also feature a 2nm chip and launch in September.
