iPhone 18 Pro Render: Hidden Face ID, A20 Power

• iPhone 18 Pro renders visualize under‑display Face ID, a smaller Dynamic Island cutout and three possible new colors (brown, purple, burgundy).
• Apple’s first 2nm Apple A20 system-on-chip and a new Apple C2 modem are expected to power the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max.
• The iPhone Fold will remain separate from Pro models, with Touch ID and punch‑hole FaceTime cameras on both displays.
• Rumored additions include 5G via satellite and a variable‑aperture main camera, though neither is confirmed.

What the renders show

A recent render video from FPT (host John Prosser, produced with Asher Dipprey) compiles prevailing leaks and prototypes to visualize the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max design direction.

The clips present a punch‑hole display layout common on Android phones but hide Face ID hardware beneath the panel, shrinking the visible cutout and keeping the Dynamic Island feature albeit in a much smaller left‑side notch.

Design and color options

The renders depict a refined Pro chassis with at least three colorways reportedly under test: brown, a purple shade, and burgundy red. Sources suggest Apple may choose among these during final production.

Apple is also separating the iPhone Fold from the regular Pro lineup this year, leaving only two standard flagship releases: iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max.

Under‑display Face ID and the Dynamic Island

Prototypes indicate Apple is moving Face ID sensors beneath the display glass, effectively creating a smaller punch‑hole for the camera while concealing TrueDepth components.

Dynamic Island will persist but be repositioned inside the smaller left cutout, according to the renders—preserving Apple’s software affordances while enabling a cleaner front panel.

Performance: Apple A20 and C2 modem

Leakers and analysts expect Apple’s first 2nm SoC, likely called the Apple A20, to power the iPhone 18 Pro series. The A20 is predicted to bring CPU and power‑efficiency gains over the A‑family predecessors.

Apple’s own C2 modem is also rumored to replace current Qualcomm parts, potentially consolidating baseband and improving integration. Details on carrier support and release timing remain unconfirmed.

Camera, satellite features and other changes

Other reported upgrades include a variable‑aperture main camera aimed at enthusiasts and expanded satellite features—some analysts point to full 5G via satellite beyond today’s SOS capabilities, but these remain speculative.

Until Apple confirms specs at an official event, the renders serve as an aggregated preview of likely hardware and color tests rather than final product decisions.
