While Apple enthusiasts are still exploring their new iPhone 15 devices, rumors and leaks about the next phone, the iPhone 16, have begun to circulate. Leaks reveal that Apple plans to replace the dynamic island at the top of the iPhone screen with a single hole-punched camera. If these leaks are accurate, the industry-leading company will adopt a design that Android phones have used for years, according to the British "Daily Mail."
**Less Space**
The current iPhone design embeds the front cameras within a set of black pixel units called the dynamic island, which also functions as an interactive display. The company is reportedly testing the new iPhone 16 Pro, according to a user named MajinBuOfficial, indicating that final details will depend on March of next year. The main advantage of the hole-punched camera design is that it takes up less screen space. Some may remember how older smartphones had large black areas at the top of the screen where the camera was located.
**Android May Copy Apple's Design**
While it’s possible that Apple is testing this feature, it does not necessarily mean there are plans to change the camera design. Conversely, there have been rumors that Android manufacturers might replicate Apple's dynamic island design instead. With the iPhone 16 expected to be released in 2024, users commented on MajinBuOfficial’s post, suggesting that Apple might retain the current front camera design in its next generation of phones and make modifications in the iPhone 17.
