iPhone 14 Pro selfie camera to sit in a wide pill, says leading Apple leakster
The iPhone 14 Pro has long been rumoured to ditch the infamous display notch after a long run since 2017's iPhone X. In its place, the iPhone 14 Pro is said to go for a dual cutout layout for holding the front camera and a TrueDepth camera system.

Rumours suggest that the AOD feature on the iPhone will show a minimal version of the lockscreen widgets, unlike the AOD functions you see on most Android phones.
However, note that the display innovations from Apple will only come on the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max. The standard iPhone 14 and iPhone 14
