In a separate report by investment bank Haitong International, Apple is expected to include a new “metalens” for the Face ID system which claims to significantly reduce the size of iPhone's Dynamic Island. According to a MacRumors report, the metalens is said to have flat lenses that consist of microscopic patterns to capture light effectively.
