Leakster: the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max confirmed for under-display Face ID modules | Infinium-tech

The iPhone 17 Generation – Pro Max model, at least – is a rumor to be a small dynamic island thanks to some metalance technique. However, the dynamic island will appear this year. Next year, however, with the iPhone 18 Pro Series, things will start changing, regularly reports the Weibo leakster account. Digital chat station from China.

The iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max will have 6.27 ”and 6.86” OLED displays respectively. They will be the LTPO panel with 1.5K resolution and will use Hiaa technology for selfie camera and under-display face ID system.

Hiaa or “Hole-in-active-area” is familiar punch hole design where part of the pixel matrix of the display is removed to give a camera lens under a clear view.

Face ID introduced with iPhone X

It is well installed at this point, but does not have the technique of transferring face ID. Face ID is a projector (which rented a pattern of infrared light), a flood Illuminator (also working in infrared) and a combination of a camera (to see infrared lights). This display camera cannot work with current under the camera tech because it is adapted to visible light, not infrared. Although Apple resolved the issue, it is already being tested by prototype already.

Such a step has long been rumored – as far as the iPhone 15 generations. There were similar reports for later models, including the iPhone 17 generation, but it is not happening until next year. It is not believing that an unexpected issue is not a crop, of course.
