Earlier, it was suggested that the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max could adopt an under-display Face ID system with the Dynamic Island shifting to the left side of the screen. However, a new leak now disputes those claims.
According to Weibo tipster Momentary Digital, Apple does not plan to relocate the selfie camera on the iPhone 18 Pro series this year. Instead, the front-facing camera is expected to remain centre-aligned within a smaller Dynamic Island. The leak suggests that only some components of the Face ID sensor array could be shifted slightly toward the left side.

The tipster further claims that earlier reports indicating the entire Dynamic Island would move to the left edge of the display on the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max were “mistranslated.” There have also been separate speculations about Apple potentially removing the Dynamic Island altogether in favour of a smaller punch-hole cutout, but this new information contradicts that idea.
Display industry analyst Ross Young has also supported this view on X. He noted that not all Face ID components are expected to sit beneath a transparent section of the display, which would naturally result in a reduced cutout rather than a complete redesign.
Young added that this approach is likely to continue through 2026 and 2027.
While Apple is expected to refresh the Dynamic Island design in future models, recent leaks indicate that the iPhone 18 Pro could feature a 6.27-inch LTPO display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The iPhone 18 Pro Max is said to sport a 6.86-inch screen with the same refresh rate. Some earlier reports had claimed that both models might completely drop the Dynamic Island in favour of a punch-hole selfie camera, but the latest leak suggests otherwise.
Both the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max are rumoured to feature 12GB of LPDDR5x RAM, 18-megapixel front-facing cameras with 6P lenses, and a new C2 modem.
On the rear, they could come equipped with a triple camera setup, including a 48-megapixel main sensor, a 48-megapixel periscope telephoto camera, and a 48-megapixel ultra-wide lens.
As for launch, the iPhone 18 Pro series is expected to debut in September this year.
