As anticipation mounts for Apple’s next flagship releases, reports suggest that the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max are poised to make significant strides in display size, thanks to an innovative technology known as “Border Reduction Structure” (BRS). This groundbreaking advancement, as disclosed by The Elec via 9To5Mac, promises to redefine smartphone design by minimizing bezels and enhancing the overall user experience.
The introduction of BRS technology signifies Apple’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of sleek design. By leveraging a sophisticated under-display system, the iPhone 16 Pro models aim to achieve notably thinner bezels, setting the stage for a visually immersive experience like never before. However, the journey towards this revolutionary design is not without its challenges.
Suppliers, including industry giants like LG Display and Samsung Display, are reportedly grappling with the complexities of meeting Apple’s stringent production standards. The intricacies of implementing BRS technology, which involve tight placement of circuits beneath the bezel and intricate wiring arrangements, present significant hurdles. According to reports, no company has yet achieved production rates that meet Apple’s exacting requirements.
Despite these challenges, suppliers are working diligently to overcome obstacles and meet Apple’s demands. Samsung Display is expected to supply all four OLEDs for the iPhone 16 Series, while LG Display aims to contribute to the OLED supply for the Pro and Pro Max variants. Additionally, BOE is slated to provide OLEDs for the lower-tier models, showcasing a collaborative effort to bring the vision of the iPhone 16 Pro lineup to fruition.
Amidst concerns regarding potential overheating issues due to the intricacies of BRS technology, Apple and its suppliers have reportedly devised innovative heat-controlled dissipation technologies to address these challenges effectively.
While specific details regarding the extent of bezel reduction remain undisclosed, speculation is rife that the iPhone 16 Pro models will feature larger displays without a significant increase in overall device size. Building upon the successes of the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, which already showcased reduced borders in previous leaks, the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max are poised to set new standards in smartphone design.
With the iPhone 16 Pro expected to sport a 6.3-inch display (up from 6.1 inches) and the iPhone 16 Pro Max featuring a 6.9-inch display (up from 6.7 inches), anticipation continues to mount among tech enthusiasts for Apple’s next groundbreaking release. As the launch date approaches, all eyes are on Apple as they prepare to unveil their latest innovations to the world.
