iPhone 18 Pro Revolutionizes Selfie Camera Technology
Apple is reportedly set to unveil significant changes to the selfie camera technology in its upcoming iPhone 18 Pro. The phone is expected to feature a new design that pivots away from the traditional center placement of the front camera.
New Selfie Camera Placement
Recent leaks indicate that the iPhone 18 Pro will introduce a small punch-hole cutout for its front-facing camera. This positioning will be located in the top-left corner of the display, a substantial shift from Apple’s long-standing centered aesthetic.
Innovation with Under-Display Face ID
- Apple plans to implement under-display Face ID technology in the iPhone 18 Pro.
- This advancement allows the TrueDepth sensors to be concealed beneath the screen.
- As a result, only the selfie camera will be visible.
The new design eliminates the need for the existing pill-shaped cutout, known as the Dynamic Island, offering a cleaner look. Industry analyst Digital Chat Station has suggested that only the Pro models of the iPhone 18 will incorporate this new feature, while the standard versions will retain the current Dynamic Island.
Dynamic Island Adjustments
Reports suggest that if the selfie camera is repositioned, the Dynamic Island may also shift accordingly. A video presentation by Jon Prosser shows the Dynamic Island potentially relocating to the top-left corner. This adjustment would allow it to expand when needed for Live Activities, calls, or navigation purposes.
The Future of the iPhone 18 Pro
If these rumors are confirmed, the most notable change in the iPhone 18 Pro will focus on the selfie camera’s new placement rather than flashy software enhancements. The official reveal of the iPhone 18 Pro is anticipated later this year, when all speculations will be clarified.
