iPhone 16 Design Changes and Production Challenges

The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max are rumored to feature larger displays achieved through "Border Reduction Structure" (BRS) technology, making the bezels thinner using a complex new under-display system. However, Apple suppliers, including LG Display and Samsung Display, are reportedly facing production challenges in meeting Apple's standards for this technology. The BRS technology involves placing the circuit under the bezel more tightly and bending down some wiring, increasing technical difficulty. Despite previous concerns about overheating, Apple and its suppliers have reportedly solved the problem with new heat-controlled heat dissipation technologies. The iPhone 16 Pro is expected to feature a 6.3-inch display, and the iPhone 16 Pro Max a 6.9-inch display, with smaller bezels compared to the iPhone 15 Pro models.

Apple is working to resolve the problem and still plans to launch in September, but there may be shortages of the devices. The iPhone 15 Pro Max is expected to be the most affected.
