As Apple's product series with a large number of users, every change in the iPhone will receive attention from the outside world. With the arrival of Face ID, the "bangs" groove has also become the standard for the iPhone flagship.
Such product designs have been debated over the past few years, but they have also been continuously carried by iPhone products. Now, there is new news about this product design again.
In the iPhone 13 series released last year, the space occupied by its front "bangs" was reduced by 20%, which is also the first time in many years that Apple has changed the "bangs" groove. Based on this, many speculate that Apple may not bring design changes to the screen part again soon. Recent news, however, suggests a different narrative.
Previously, it was revealed that Apple may bring a perforated screen design scheme in the next generation of iPhone 14 series. The latest news now repeats this statement again.
It is reported that the news from the blogger's @Ark click mentioned that "IT is said that BOE has received an order for Apple's iPhone 14, which is its front panel shape", and together showed a product outline schematic diagram.
Combined with this picture, it can be seen that this new machine seems to have applied 2 punches of different sizes to the front screen part. One of the punches is a small size single punch, and the other is an oval-like "pill" shaped punch. Such a design scheme has also appeared in previous revelations, and the corresponding renderings have also been exposed.
At the same time, other sources also mentioned the revelation and showed how it compares with the punch size of previous renderings.
Combined, if this revelation is accurate, the actual size of the two punches seems to be larger than previous forecasts suggest. In this way, the actual presence of the punch will also be stronger.
However, such a design does not seem to be carried in the full range of the iPhone 14.
Sources from analysts suggest that Apple seems to be only adopting such a design for the higher-positioned iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max. That is to say, the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max, which are slightly lower positioned, will not apply this scheme, but will continue to use Liu Haiping.
To see this design in the iPhone version with a slightly lower position in the series, it may be necessary to wait for 2023. According to analysts, Apple will adopt a screen solution combined with 2 punches for all models in this year's iPhone series. And with the gradual development and breakthrough of the corresponding technology, it seems that the punch size on the iPhone series in 2023 can also be expected to be reduced.
Of course, before the arrival of the new iPhone 15 series, the first thing we will see will be the iPhone 14 series.
According to the information mentioned in the relevant leaks, the iPhone 14 series seems to continue the current fuselage scheme, but it may incorporate some elements on the iPhone 4, such as the round volume button may return.
At the same time, several recent renderings have revealed that Apple seems to be planning to bring new adjustments to the camera module behind the fuselage. The adjusted iPhone 14 series may cancel the overall camera module, and the lens assembly will be flush with the back shell of the fuselage, no longer bulging.
As far as the news is concerned, it seems that both this year's and next year's iPhone series will bring design changes. These changes don't involve more of the overall look, but they also bring quite a few new ideas. This may also be related to Apple's technological breakthroughs for some time.
On the whole, the possible appearance changes mentioned in the existing exposés, which one are you more looking forward to?
