Rumors suggest the upcoming iPhone 17e will feature two major design updates: a Dynamic Island and thinner bezels, aligning its look more closely with higher-end iPhone models, although it will not support ProMotion. These changes aim to modernize the low-cost model's appearance and improve its integration with the iPhone 17 family.
The upcoming iPhone 16 models are rumored to feature thinner bezels using Border Reduction Structure (BRS) technology, which allows for a more compact layout of the screen's circuitry. This technology is expected to be implemented in the iPhone 16 Pro models, potentially leading to larger displays without a substantial increase in overall size. LG Display is diversifying its supply chain for Display Driver ICs (DDIs) to meet Apple's requirements, and there are rumors that BRS technology will be incorporated across the entire iPhone 16 lineup.
The iPhone 15 Pro is rumored to feature a titanium frame for a lighter and more durable design, along with thinner bezels thanks to new screen technology. The regular iPhone 15 models will reportedly have the A16 processor, ditch the notch in favor of Dynamic Island, and support USB-C charging. These changes mark significant updates to Apple's iPhone lineup.
The upcoming iPhone 15 Pro is rumored to feature thinner bezels, a titanium frame, and USB-C charging, replacing the lightning charger. The iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus may bid farewell to the top notch in favor of the Dynamic Island cutout. Other potential updates include camera upgrades, the A16 processor, and the introduction of an iPhone "Ultra" model. Apple is expected to release the new iPhones in September, possibly at a higher price point.
The upcoming iPhone 15 Pro models are expected to feature a titanium frame, thinner bezels, a customizable button, and a switch from Lightning to USB-C. However, these improvements may come with a price increase, both internationally and potentially in the US. Additionally, the standard iPhone model is rumored to adopt the Dynamic Island design and drop the notch, while the next Apple Watch processor, the S9, is expected to offer a significant performance boost. Apple's new devices will be unveiled in mid-September, competing against Samsung's recently updated lineup of folding and flipping phones.
The upcoming iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max are rumored to have thinner bezels around the display, but this has reportedly caused a manufacturing issue for Apple suppliers. The issue is said to be more pronounced with the Pro Max model, potentially leading to a supply shortage upon launch. However, reports suggest that the issue will be resolved within a week or two and will not significantly impact overall production. In addition to thinner bezels, the iPhone 15 Pro models are expected to feature various new features and improvements, including a USB-C port, titanium frame, faster chip, camera enhancements, and more. There may also be price increases due to inflationary pressures.
