Apple is expected to release the Apple Watch Ultra 3 with a slightly larger 1.98-inch display, achieved by reducing bezels, along with significant upgrades like satellite messaging, 5G support, blood pressure detection, and new chips, likely announced alongside the iPhone 17 on September 9.
A new leak suggests that the iPhone 16 Pro Max will feature a nearly borderless design with the thinnest bezels ever seen on a smartphone, surpassing even the Galaxy S24 Ultra. The phone will have a 6.9-inch display and will be more compact and comfortable to hold despite its larger screen size, thanks to advanced Border Reduction Structure (BRS) technology.
A supply-chain report suggests that Apple's display suppliers have acquired new technology to further reduce the bezels on the upcoming iPhone 16 models, while also expanding the screen size, particularly in the Pro models. The report also hints at the possibility of hiding the Face ID module beneath the display by 2026, although it acknowledges potential delays. Additionally, the challenge of increasing the display size without significantly increasing the phone's width is addressed through the use of CAD models, showing a larger screen for the iPhone 16 Pro Max while keeping the overall form factor as close to the same as possible.
