According to sources at the generally well-informed website The Information, the 2026 iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max would be the first to benefit from a Face ID sensor hidden under the screen. A technology that has been rumored for a while, but which has apparently been delayed.
As a result, the front oval perforation should be reduced to a small circle for the photo sensor, which will be moved to the upper left corner of the screen. In fact, it is not known what would happen to the Dynamic Island, which would probably be altered to work with this new configuration. Note that this rumor is supported by several other sources, including Taiwanese analyst Ross Young, who had already announced this invisible Face ID process for the iPhone 18 Pro. These models will normally be launched in September 2026.
