IT house January 10 news, all the current revelations indicate that Apple will launch this year's high-end iPhone 14 series model meter will be changed to the pill / capsule shape of the punched screen design, so as to bid farewell to the appearance of the bangs since 2017 iPhone.
Although there are still months to go before the release of the next generation of iPhones, we can actually imagine the possible styles of this model.
Punch screen for IPhone 14
Developer Jeff Grossman showed us a model of the iPhone 14 on Twitter, giving us a visual glimpse of what the iPhone 14 might have.
Compared with the previous bangs, this punched screen is located in the center position slightly below the bangs border, and the length and height are shorter, providing more screen space on both sides.
Foreign media said that although Apple has reduced the size of the bangs on the iPhone 13, the extra space cannot be effectively used, and even the user still cannot display the battery power percentage in the status bar, but must slide down to the control center.
Therefore, some netizens believe that if Apple adopts this shape of punched screen, users can see more information on the status bar, thereby improving the experience.
In addition, foreign media released an illustration of the "iPhone 14 Pro display", indicating that Apple will place some important sensors (pill part) in the hole-punching position, while infrared and other secondary sensors (round holes in the picture below) will be hidden under the display. Among them, the right half of the elliptical punch hole is equipped with components for Face ID, and the front lens of the new machine will also have a wider wide-angle shooting capability.
Battery utilization for the IPhone 13
Since the iPhone X, Apple's bangs design has always been a hallmark of the iPhone design language. The new punching screen requires Apple to install multiple sensors and TrueDepth systems on a smaller area, and the integration is quite high.
Therefore, there are rumors that only the high-end iPhone 14 Pro this year will use punch screens, while low-end models will continue to use full-size bangs, but the credibility is average.
In addition to this, there are people who believe that starting next year, the iPhone 15 will no longer need any bangs or punch holes, because Apple wants to put Face ID and related sensors under the screen.
