iPhone 18 Pro will have three upgrades that have been rumored for years

The iPhone 18 Pro is set to launch next week, bringing three upgrades that have been rumored for years. One of the most anticipated features is the variable aperture camera system, which was initially expected to debut in the iPhone 17 but has now been confirmed for the iPhone 18 Pro line. This feature could significantly enhance the camera capabilities of the device.

Another long-awaited change is the reduction in size of the Dynamic Island, a cutout in the display that has been present since the iPhone X. Apple is reportedly making the Dynamic Island on the iPhone 18 Pro about 35% smaller than its previous iteration. This reduction in size has even been hinted at by the new look of Siri in iOS 27.

Lastly, Apple is rumored to be shifting away from Qualcomm modems in the iPhone 18 Pro and moving towards its own next-generation C2 chip. This move is expected to bring speed improvements, as well as enhanced efficiency and privacy benefits. The C2 modem is anticipated to outperform its predecessors, the C1X and C1, in terms of performance.
