Next year’s iPhone Pro redesign gets new update from leaker

Apple is reportedly set to unveil a significant redesign for next year's iPhone Pro models, coinciding with the iPhone's 20th anniversary. A recent leak on Weibo, shared by Digital Chat Station, has revealed details about three new iPhone models slated for early 2027: the iPhone 18e, iPhone 18, and iPhone Air 2. The focus of the leak was on the iPhone 18, which is expected to receive two Pro-inspired upgrades.

However, in a follow-up post, the leaker addressed a key design question regarding the design of next fall's iPhone Pro models. It was rumored that Apple was working on a major redesign for the iPhone's 20th anniversary, featuring a quad-curved display that wraps around the edges of the device, creating a visually appealing bezel-free look.

Early rumors suggested the device could also do away with the Dynamic Island for a completely glass display, eliminating any cutouts. Yet, the leaker confirmed that this isn't the case after all.

When asked if the 'iPhone 20 Pro Max' would have a Dynamic Island or a hole-free display, the leaker confirmed that the display will retain the holes, thereby preserving the Dynamic Island cutout. It's unclear whether the size of the Dynamic Island will remain the same as the one on the iPhone 18 Pro. However, given that the device is expected to feature Face ID, it is highly likely. This revelation may impact the interest of potential buyers in the upcoming iPhone 20 Pro.
