Iphone 18 pro leaks reveal smaller dynamic island, unified back design, and exciting color options

Apple's flagship iphone 18 pro and pro max expected this fall

Following last year's significant design overhaul of the iPhone 17 Pro series, rumors suggest that Apple's approach to the iPhone 18 Pro's design will be more evolutionary than revolutionary.

Dynamic island to shrink, but stay

Dynamic island to shrink, but stay

The Dynamic Island feature, introduced with the iPhone 14 in 2022, is likely to remain on the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max. However, it may be smaller than its predecessor, reportedly by around 35%.

Unified glass and aluminum back design

For the iPhone 18 series, Apple is rumored to have refined the design of the two-tone glass and aluminum back, aiming for a more seamless and unified look.

Camera plateau and metal frame to remain

The distinctive camera plateau and metal frame design introduced with the iPhone 17 Pro will likely carry over to the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max.

Three new color options in the works?

Rumors suggest Apple may offer three new colors for the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, including Coffee Brown, Purple, and Burgundy. A black color might not be in the cards this time around.

Display sizes and face id expected to stay the same

Rumors indicate that the display sizes of the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max will remain unchanged, with Face ID components potentially being rearranged under the screen to accommodate the smaller Dynamic Island.
