Apple’s next flagship, the iPhone 18 Pro, remains in flux as a trusted Weibo leaker, Digital Chat Station, releases fresh design clues. The company may shrink the Dynamic Island by roughly 35 % by repositioning Face ID beneath the glass, a tweak that could reshape the front‑end experience ahead of next generation phones today.

Digital Chat Station reports supply‑chain chatter revealing an A/B testing scenario. One branch keeps the existing screen mold, while the other experiments with a Mini Dynamic Island and sub‑display Face ID. Apple still weighs both paths, leaving the final form undecided for the upcoming model in the next quarter final decision.

On the rear, the leaker confirms the rectangular plateau will stay, echoing the iPhone 17 Pro layout. Minor tweaks to body materials aim for a cleaner aluminum‑glass blend, moving away from the two‑tone look. Color options are set to shift, offering new palettes for enthusiasts in this year launch cycle.

These incremental revisions underline Apple’s strategy to iterate rather than overhaul. Consumers will weigh the modest display shrinkage and chassis refinements against new software features when deciding on a switch. Ultimately, the iPhone 18 Pro’s look hinges on the final mold choice Apple seals this year for the next generation.
