Credible leaker reiterates final iPhone 18 Pro (Max) design with smaller dynamic island, new color, and tweaked Camera Control

There have been talks of a small redesign for the front of the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max. None of it is official, but there are numerous reports that all but confirm the design change, and that’s to do with the dynamic island. It is going to be much smaller than the current generation. A credible leaker has now shared, with confidence, what the final design for the iPhone 18 Pro will be.

The leaker in question is Jon Prosser from fpt (Front Page Tech), who, in his latest YouTube video, showed off what he believes is the final design for the iPhone 18 Pro. It shows a small dynamic island that is said to be around 25% smaller than the iPhone 17 Pro. That’s about all the redesign entails for the front of the phone.

The leaker also reiterates that variable aperture will be coming to the primary sensor on the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max. The new Dark Cherry color will be part of the lineup, in line with previous leaks, and the Camera Control button will be nerfed due to budget constraints. It will be only pressure sensitive without the capacitive element.

Lastly, Prosser mentions that the iPhone 18 Pro Max will feature a larger 5,200 mAh battery, and both the Pro models will come with the new C2 modem, along with 5G via satellite.

Recently, it was reported that while there will be several updates coming with the iPhone 18 series, the build, however, will remain the same. Apple is said to be sticking with aluminum for this upcoming generation, which is a bit disappointing considering the durability issues.
