According to Ross young, a display industry consultant, all four iPhone 15 models released next year will adopt a pill shaped perforated display design to replace bangs. He has a fairly accurate record in displaying relevant information. Young shared a roadmap on twitter, indicating that both the standard and pro models of the iPhone 15 will adopt a "pill + perforated" layout, that is, a pill shaped bangs will be designed for the face ID sensor and another hole will be punched for the front camera.
In contrast, only [iPhone] this year( https://apple.pvxt.net/c/1251234/435400/7639?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.apple.com%2Fcn%2Fiphone%2F ) The 14 Pro model is expected to use this design, while the standard iPhone 14 model is expected to retain the same bangs as the iPhone 13 model.
Young believes that Apple The ultimate goal is to move the face ID sensor and front camera completely under the display. If the development is successful, it is expected that this transition will start with the off-screen face ID of iPhone 16 pro in 2024, followed by the off-screen face ID and off-screen front camera of iPhone 18 pro in 2026. Compared with the iPhone 13 Pro model, the shot hole design will result in a slightly larger screen size of the iPhone 14 Pro model.
Without any major supply chain disruption, apple is expected to launch the iPhone 14 series in September. For pro models, the upgraded 48 million pixel rear camera is expected to achieve 8K video recording capacity, which is higher than the current 4K video.
