Leaked details reveal Apple's upcoming foldable iPhone will feature a 7.8-inch inner display and a 5.5-inch outer display, with a launch expected in late 2026. Meanwhile, iOS 26 public beta is anticipated soon, bringing features like video support on CarPlay and new iPad Pro models with M5 chips and dual front cameras. Apple is also expected to announce the iPhone 17 series in September, with design changes and new models.
A rumor suggests that the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max will feature larger displays of 6.27 and 6.86 inches, respectively, with a shift from the traditional pill-shaped cutout to a punch-hole design to improve screen-to-body ratio, and Face ID components embedded beneath the screen, though the technology's effectiveness remains uncertain.
The iPhone 17 lineup will include four models with new display sizes, notably a 6.27-inch iPhone 17 and a 6.55-inch iPhone 17 Air, alongside existing sizes for the Pro models, with expected features like a 120Hz refresh rate and a new camera design, set for release in 2025.
Leaks reveal that the Google Pixel Fold 2 will feature a 6.29-inch outer display and an 8.02-inch inner display, with a Tensor G4 processor expected to power the device upon its release later this year. The new display sizes represent a significant increase from the original Pixel Fold, and the device is anticipated to launch in the Fall.
The iPhone 16 Pro models are set to have larger display sizes than the iPhone 14 Pro models and the upcoming iPhone 15 Pro models, with the iPhone 16 Pro featuring a display with a size of 6.3 inches and the iPhone 16 Pro Max featuring a display size of 6.9 inches. Both models will also feature the new periscope lens, allowing for 5x to 6x optical zoom. The standard iPhone 16 will continue to feature a screen size of 6.1 inches.
Apple plans to introduce larger 6.3 and 6.9-inch display sizes for the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max in 2024, with the change in screen size limited to the Pro models. The standard iPhone 16 models are expected to feature the same 6.1 and 6.7-inch display sizes. The larger display sizes for the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max will be the biggest screens that Apple has introduced to date, suggesting a design revision, a decrease in bezels, or both.
The iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max models launching in 2024 are expected to feature larger displays of around 6.3-inch and 6.9-inch, respectively, according to display industry analyst Ross Young. These would be the largest displays ever for an iPhone. Young has a good track record with display-related information about future Apple products. He will reveal the actual sizes to two decimal places during his speech at the Display Week conference in Los Angeles on May 23.
Display industry analyst Ross Young has revealed that the Google Pixel 8 will have a 6.16” screen, smaller than its predecessor, while the Pixel 8 Pro will feature a standard 6.7” panel. Panel production for both models is set to begin in May. The Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro are expected to debut in late 2023, but a sneak peek may be revealed at Google I/O next month.
