iPhone 14 Pro gets punch-hole design
There is a good chance that the iPhone 14 Pro will have a notch-less design. Earlier there were rumors that the selfie camera is processed in a hole in the screen. Now there is even more evidence that Apple has opted for a so-called punch-hole design with the iPhone 14 Pro.
Read on after the ad.
iPhone 14 punch hole
The reliable Korean website The Elec reports that the iPhone 14 Pro models launching in 2022 are likely to have a punch-hole design. This is a design where the camera is hidden behind a hole in the screen. Many Android devices already have such a camera hole in the display.
Both the 6.1-inch iPhone 14 Pro and 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Pro Max are expected to have the updated design. The notch that has been used since the iPhone X will disappear on the high-end iPhones. This creates more space for the display.
Face ID under screen
If Apple moves to this design, the hardware for Face ID will have to be placed below the display. According to previous rumors, Apple faces a significant technical challenge in this regard and it is uncertain whether the technology will be ready in time. But because of the news of The Elec seems more likely that this will work.
The Korean website further reports that the iPhone 14 Pro models are equipped with ProMotion screens with refresh rates up to 120 Hz. That is not surprising, because the technology is already there with the iPhone 13 Pro (Max). There is, however, a difference: while the panels now all come from Samsung, Apple would also use LG Display’s OLED screens in 2022.
Better camera
Earlier, the reliable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo already reported an iPhone 14 Pro with punch-hole design. He also had more news. The 2022 flagship would be equipped with a 48-megapixel camera. Now the iPhone still has to make do with a sensor of 12 megapixels.
