According to technology analyst Jeff Pu, who has a pretty good track record with rumors Apple , the high-end iPhone 17 Pro Max, which will be introduced next year, will have a smaller Dynamic Island. This echoes information he first shared in May.
In an analyst note with investment bank Haitong International earlier this month, obtained by MacRumors, Pu said that iPhone 17 Pro Max will have "metal lenses" for Face ID, which will result in a "significantly narrowed" Dynamic Island on the device. He doesn't expect this change to affect the smaller iPhone 17 Pro or any other iPhone 17 model.

In his research note this month, Pu did not provide any specific details about how Apple plans to use metalens for the Face ID system, nor did he explain how the change would lead to a narrower Dynamic Island.
Apple introduced Dynamic Island oniPhone 14 Pro models in 2022, and it is available on all iPhone 15 and iPhone 16 models. Apple is expected to introduce the iPhone 17 series in September next year, and more details about this metal may appear in the coming months.
