It is becoming increasingly likely that Apple will introduce Dynamic Island to the entire iPhone 15 lineup when the phones are launched, and a new leak from China confirms this.
The images shared by Ice Universe (who has a decent track record with iPhone leaks) on Twitter showcase what appear to be tempered glass protectors for the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max.
An add-on that will be available for all models
Several rumors have already suggested that all models of the iPhone 15 will feature Dynamic Island this year, and it wouldn’t be surprising given that new features introduced in Apple’s Pro iPhones tend to trickle down to non-Pro models a generation or two later.
Some Pro features have remained exclusive to the Pro lineup for a longer period (such as LiDAR and a telephoto sensor), which were introduced in the iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max and have yet to appear in non-Pro iPhones.
As such, we are fairly confident that Dynamic Island will indeed appear across all iPhone models this year. Goodbye notch, and hello Dynamic Island.
A big boost for Dynamic Island
Honestly, Dynamic Island is a clever way to remove the notch – the Notch – from the TrueDepth module, introduced with the iPhone X, while retaining most of the technology that has made Face ID, selfies, and front-facing AR operations so effective.
Although some features, like timers and apps such as Uber and Deliveroo, make good use of Dynamic Island, developers, in general, have been slow to leverage its potential. It has been more of an additional feature rather than a differentiating technology.
If Apple brings Dynamic Island to the entire iPhone 15 lineup, it will be more likely for developers to incorporate meaningful and truly useful functions. Furthermore, there are reports suggesting that Apple is introducing improvements to Dynamic Island, indicating its long-term commitment to the technology.
