iPhone 18 lineup could largely look similar to predecessors, save for colors
When it comes to design changes, the iPhone 18 line is expected to have a few noteworthy updates.
iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, at minimum, are getting a smaller Dynamic Island, and also switching to a more unified look across the back glass and aluminum.
