According to the Weibo-based account Digital Chat Station — as noted by MacRumors — Apple is testing under-display 3D facial recognition for 2026’s iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max models. Other rumors about next year’s smartphones:
° They will have a major leap in memory performance.
° They will have A20 chips manufactured with TSMC’s 2nm process.
° They will sport the C2 modem, a follow-up to Apple’s C1 modem.
° They will pack a 3nm A20 processor updated for Apple Intelligence.
° Apple’s A20 chip in iPhone 18 models will switch from the previous InFo (Integrated Fan-Out) packaging to WMCM (Wafer-Level Multi-Chip Module) packaging.
