There have been rumors debunking those claims and now another leaker has reiterated the same.<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">There have been quite a few leaks about the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, particularly related to their design. Some claimed that the new phones will get a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.notebookcheck.net\/Apple-iPhone-18-Pro-Concept-images-show-controversial-design-change-in-detail.1205255.0.html\" target=\"_self\" class=\"internal-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">redesigned front<\/a> after several years of the same. But now, it\u2019s starting to look like the design of the iPhone 18 Pro phones will be \u201clargely unchanged\u201d compared to their predecessors. &#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">The latest information, once again comes from Digital Chat Station who claims that <a href=\"https:\/\/weibo.com\/6048569942\/QvAucu18W?pagetype=profilefeed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Apple is reusing the molds<\/a> from the previous generation (iPhone 17 Pro) to manufacture the iPhone 18 Pro. This means the Dynamic Island will be \u201clargely unchanged\u201d as the leaker mentions. Unfortunately for those hoping for a reduction in the size of the pill, both the size and the shape will remain the same.<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">Recent rumors suggested that Apple is switching to a hole-punch design for the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, located at the top left corner. On top of that, it was said that an infrared sensor with Face ID will be hidden under there, and the Dynamic Island will be no more. Another rumor claimed that there will be an invisible infrared sensor in the upper left corner of the display <a href=\"https:\/\/www.notebookcheck.net\/Apple-iPhone-18-Pro-Translation-error-may-have-caused-completely-inaccurate-leaks.1208409.0.html\" target=\"_self\" class=\"internal-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">along with a smaller Dynamic Island<\/a>. Digital Chat Station points out that this has now been delayed to the following generation, i.e. iPhone 19 Pro. &#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">The leaker adds that there will be some upgrades coming with the iPhone 18 Pro like the A20 Pro chip based on 2nm architecture, a larger aperture camera system, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.notebookcheck.net\/Apple-iPhone-18-Entire-lineup-might-sport-larger-batteries-for-global-customers.1227579.0.html\" target=\"_self\" class=\"internal-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">over 5,000 mAh battery<\/a> \u2013 likely only for the iPhone 18 Pro Max. &#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">It should be noted that these are all rumors at this point, regardless of the credibility of the leaker. Apple, as usual, has not shared any information about the upcoming phones.<\/p>\n<p>\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.notebookcheck.net\/Notebookcheck-Team.212978.0.html?&amp;tx_nbc2journalist_pi1%5Bmode%5D=show&amp;tx_nbc2journalist_pi1%5Buid%5D=394\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/csm_Vineet-Washington-profile-image_2ea3673869.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"120\" height=\"120\" alt=\"Vineet Washington\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I have always been passionate about gaming and technology, which drove me towards pursuing a career in the tech writing industry.
