Apple has considered many ideas for the Dynamic Island notch in the iPhone 14 Pro and 15 Pro over the years. Edition MacRumors found out what layouts Apple was testing and, based on the data obtained, created renderings of what they could look like.
Before Dynamic Island, designers tested a pop-up menu on the right side of the screen that provided quick access to the time, cell signal, Wi-Fi strength, display brightness, volume, and battery level. This menu was probably brought up by swiping from the right and disappearing when not in use.
Apple was considering completely hiding the notch at the top of the screen. To do this, the area around the TrueDepth camera would always be highlighted in black. It would also save battery life because OLED displays turn off pixels when they show black.
When Apple began developing Dynamic Island itself, it tested different options for displaying information, which ultimately were not implemented. For example, the company tested displaying volume and some system settings in the cutout.
As a result, Apple came to the conclusion that Dynamic Island should be visually fluid so that it does not seem too intrusive to users. [MacRumors]
