iPhone 14 Pro is rumored to feature a pill-shaped front camera cutout and the notch will be gone for good. This was shared by leaker @dylandkt on micro-blogging platform Twitter this Tuesday.

Last year this was also confirmed by a reliable Apple analyst Ross Young. They correctly predicted that the new iPad mini would feature an 8.3-inch display with Touch ID integrated into the Home button itself.
Apple is expected the launch the new iPhones in September of this year. The new lineup will include 6.1-inch 14 and 14 Pro, 6.7-inch 14 Pro, and also a rumored 14 Max. The pill-shaped camera and the under-display Face ID probably won’t be featured in the non-pro models.
Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo had also said that the Cupertino-based company is working on a 6.7-inch 14 Max which will probably be priced at $899.
