While the iPhone 17 hasn’t even hit Indian shelves yet, whispers about the iPhone 18 Pro are already making waves. According to early leaks, Apple could be gearing up to eliminate the pill-shaped cutout, opting instead for an under-display Face ID system to achieve a cleaner, uninterrupted screen. Here’s what we know so far about this upcoming iPhone.
iPhone 18 Pro: All the Details Revealed So Far
A new report from The Information suggests Apple may be gearing up for a bold design shift in its upcoming iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max models. This leak suggests that the company is planning to phase out the current pill-shaped Dynamic Island in favour of a single hole-punch cutout.
Interestingly, unlike the centrally placed cutouts seen on most Android devices, Apple is said to be positioning this new cutout towards the top-left corner of the screen, along with the front-facing camera.
The report also hints at Apple’s first attempt to embed Face ID technology beneath the display—a significant step forward in its pursuit of a cleaner, more immersive screen.
What makes this rumour particularly surprising is how recent the Dynamic Island innovation actually is. Introduced just two years ago with the iPhone 14 series, it quickly became a signature design element. Whether Apple is ready to move on from it remains to be seen.
Apple’s design shake-up could also tie into a broader strategy shift. According to reports, starting in 2026, Apple may move to a biannual iPhone launch cycle — effectively doubling its iPhone releases each year. For now, none of this is official. However, with the iPhone 17 series still ahead of us, all eyes are on how Apple’s future design language will evolve.
