Rumors say Apple’s 20th‑anniversary iPhone (launching in fall 2027) will feature a curved edge‑to‑edge all‑glass display, under‑display Face ID, two size options, a custom image sensor, solid‑state haptic buttons, a 2‑nm A21 chip, high‑bandwidth memory, and other power and design upgrades that could redefine the iPhone.
Rumors suggest the iPhone 20, due 2027 for Apple’s 20th anniversary, will ditch bezels for a fully screen front with under-display Face ID, feature Samsung COE-based OLED, improved anti-reflective coating, a pro-grade camera with HDR sensor and variable aperture, the A21 chip, silicon-anode battery with higher energy density and HBM, capacitive buttons with haptic feedback, and a new 'liquid glass' UI.
Rumors say Apple’s 2027 anniversary iPhone XX could sport a quad-curved, all-screen chassis with Face ID under the display, potentially swap to capacitive buttons, and adopt new CoE display tech and a silicon-anode battery as part of a major design overhaul.
Rumors suggest the iPhone 18 Pro will usher in an under-display Face ID and a smaller Dynamic Island, a step toward notch-free displays in a future lineup such as the iPhone 20 Pro (planned for 2027). Early reader polls favor the slimmer Dynamic Island, while reports caution that under-display Face ID may be sluggish; other anticipated upgrades include better cameras, more energy-efficient displays, AI features, and faster performance.
New CAD renders allegedly showing a smaller Dynamic Island for the iPhone 18 Pro revive the ongoing debate about shrinking or removing Apple's notch-like feature; credibility of the leak is uncertain as the source is new, and prior rumors about under-display Face ID or a significantly reduced island remain unconfirmed. Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro this fall, potentially alongside a foldable iPhone, with the standard iPhone 18 arriving next year.
Apple is reportedly delaying a full under-display Face ID and front camera, prioritizing incremental Dynamic Island tweaks instead; the iPhone 18 Pro may keep a largely unchanged front design while ambitious under-display tech shifts to a later generation, and a foldable iPhone faces supply-chain expectations.
A Tom’s Guide preview suggests the iPhone 18 Pro is arriving this year with a 2nm A20 Pro chip, a 48‑megapixel sensor with a variable aperture for better depth control, and rumors of under‑display Face ID, with the Fold also teased as a new form factor; upgrades are expected to be incremental rather than a radical redesign for most users.
A leaker claims the iPhone 18 Pro’s Dynamic Island will be about 13.5mm wide (roughly 35% narrower than the iPhone 17 Pro), with under-display Face ID moving only the flood illuminator so the pill-shaped cutout remains. Experts say the smaller Dynamic Island could persist through 2027, and Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro lineup in September.
Respected display analyst Ross Young corroborates a leak about the iPhone 18 Pro’s front panel, arguing only the IR flood illuminator moves under the display while the dot projector, IR camera, and selfie camera stay within a smaller, centered Dynamic Island; this aligns with Instant Digital and Bloomberg reports and contradicts Wayne Ma’s top-left selfie camera hole-punch claim. Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro line in September.
Rumors from Jon Prosser claim the iPhone 18 Pro will move the Dynamic Island to the top-left corner to accommodate an under-display Face ID, with mixed reports from other analysts about placement and size; final details aren’t confirmed ahead of a likely September launch, and Prosser remains involved in an ongoing Apple trade-secret lawsuit.
Rumors claim Apple has started prototype production for the iPhone 18 lineup, with the Pro models allegedly featuring under-display Face ID and LTPO OLED displays (6.27 inches for the iPhone 18 Pro and 6.86 inches for the Pro Max). The lineup is expected to include four regular-shaped models, including an iPhone Air 2, while the iPhone Fold is not mentioned; an iPhone 18e/20 path is also floated for 2027.
