Apple’s dynamic island feature has been a part of iOS and iPhone for a few years, starting with the iPhone 14 pro. While The feature (which is a combination of hardware and software), was apple’s shift from a dated u-shaped display not to a more modern cavity placed in the centh Displays, it was not well received. Initially reserved for its pro models only, the feature finally arRVD Another feature, which may get rid of the dynamic island capsule when in use, leaving a very android-like hole-punch hale-punch cavity visible for its selfie camera.
According to digital chat station’s recent weibo post, apple might be reading a new feature for the iPhone 18 Pro And iPhone 18 Pro Max, set to be unveiled in 2026. Displays, The Tipster States that the iPhone 18 Pro will have a 6.27-inch panel with the bigger 18 Pro Max will get a 6.86-inch OLED Panel. These will be ltpo panels with a 1.5k resolution.
While The Above Sounds Pretty Normal in the case of iPhone, The Tipster also Menges Display, Leaving only the selfie camera exposed.
This is very unlike the current face Id implementation which apple has masked with a dynamic island feature with Activities being displayed. For there not in the knowledge, dynamic island isn’t really an “island” but consists of one oblong camera cutout A black software layer of the display filling up the pixels in between to make it appear like a neat capsule.
With apple said to be switching to halaya or hole-in-active-area, means that only the selfie camera will be visible to the user, while the face Id system will be hidden just below the display. It will definitely be impressive to see how the face id system and its Array of Flood Illuminators and cameras (which use infrared light) work through the display panel, but many will be HAPPY TO SEE Thee Black Blob Gone. That will then become a premium or “pro” feature.
If this is indeed the implementation that apple goes ahead with next year for its premium pro models, it then again again Camera) will only be reduced to a dot. Apple could indeed animate a fake capsule-like blob Around it, but it seems unnecessary Given that the hardware has shrunk and does not need the cover-up anymore.
As it stands, the recently launched iPhone 16e is the only new smartphone in apple’s lineup to not get the dynamic island island treatment as it is the first affordable iPhone to Trouble ID This year. Touch ID is still being used on Apple’s Macbooks and Affordable iPad Models Today.
