iPhone 17 Pro Max will have a "transforming" Dynamic Island, a true edge-to-edge screen?
Dynamic Island, the solution to "shield" the TrueDepth camera cluster on the iPhone , may be significantly reduced in size on the iPhone 17 Pro Max.
This information was revealed by analyst Jeff Pu, based on the latest research on Face ID camera technology.
iPhone 17 Pro Max will have a breakthrough in Dynamic Island cluster.
iPhone 17 Pro Max will have a breakthrough in Dynamic Island cluster.
Apple is said to be using "metalens" technology for the TrueDepth camera on the iPhone 17 Pro Max.
Metalens is an ultra-thin lens, made by etching microstructures onto a flat surface.
This technology allows the camera cluster to be reduced in size while still ensuring 3D face scanning performance.
If this information is correct, Dynamic Island on the iPhone 17 Pro Max will have a significantly smaller area, making the screen more airy and closer to a true edge-to-edge design.
Apple often uses the Pro Max version to test new technologies before applying them to other versions.
Therefore, if Metalens is indeed used on the iPhone 17 Pro Max, we can expect it to appear on all future iPhone models.
The shrinking of Dynamic Island is a welcome step forward in Apple's efforts to optimize display space and bring a more perfect screen design to the iPhone.

With Dynamic Island available on all four iPhone 15 models this year, more iPhone users have gotten to experience it.
Even though it has been on the market for a year, many people still feel overwhelmed by Dynamic Island.
But what many people may not know is that before deciding on the final location and capabilities of Dynamic Island, Apple considered a number of other locations and formats.
Based on the information it received, MacRumors has created various renders showing what the concepts Apple developed would look like if the company decided to use it to replace the notch at that time.
One of the alternatives to Dynamic Island would be to place a vertical screen on the right side of the display with some of the icons typically found on the status bar on the right side of the screen.
This shows the time, cellular signal strength, Wi-Fi indicator, screen brightness, volume, and battery life indicator. When this screen is not in use, it will not appear.

Another possibility that really caught my eye was to hide the notch in a large black status bar at the top of the screen. The time would be displayed on the left side with status bar icons on the right. Since the iPhone 14 Pro has an OLED panel, making the screen black requires turning off the appropriate pixels, which would also
