Rumor suggests Apple could kill Dynamic Island with under-display camera
Apple is rumored to be removing the Dynamic Island cutout, replacing it with an under-display camera. In other words, Apple might be going with a clean, all-screen look for its display.
Apple-focused tech site MacRumors reported on Monday that rumors suggest the 20th anniversary iPhone in 2027 could conceal the front-facing camera and have no visible cutouts on the screen. It's worth noting that these rumors come from anonymous leakers, so there remains reason to be skeptical. And it's a long time until 2027, so plans could always change.
But this is not the first time we've heard this rumor. There were reports back in May that the 20th anniversary iPhone could have an all-screen display. The iPhone certainly wouldn't be the first phone to cram tech under the display, but it would mark a major change in how the devices would appear and operate.
