Spy shot offers first look at the iPhone 18 Pro’s smaller Dynamic Island

Macworld It’s no secret that 2026 is a big year for the iPhone. The new Siri that was promised in 2024 is almost certain to arrive, we’re likely getting our first look at the first folding iPhone, and Apple will reportedly shift the iPhone 18 release to next spring to put more attention on the iPhone 18 Pro. According to rumors, the biggest change coming to the Pro phones will be a smaller Dynamic Island. For the first time since the camera cutout was introduced with the iPhone 14 Pro, Apple is reportedly going to shrink the size when it’s not in use, so it takes up less of your screen when watching videos.
