Apple is planning to incorporate bigger displays on the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro next year. This year, the company will potentially stick to the 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch displays for the iPhone 16 Pro. However, the bigger displays could feature additional benefits in terms of design. According to the latest, the bigger display size on the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will make room for an upgraded camera setup at the back, potentially the Periscope lens and the primary sensor. Scroll down to read more details on the subject.

Bigger Displays on the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will create internal space for an upgraded periscope and primary camera sensor

The news was shared on Weibo, stating they have industry insider information. The source also agrees with earlier reports of an increase in display size for the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. As mentioned earlier, the iPhone 15 Pro models will feature the same display size as the current models but the bezels would be greatly shrunk down. We have previously shown the dummy units of the iPhone 15 Pro Max. The slimmed-down bezels would give the devices a brand-new look as far as the front of the device is concerned.

It is now being reported that the increased display size of the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro will make room within the device, which could be used for various purposes. For instance, Apple could house bigger sensors and fit a bigger battery. Take note that the news is not official yet, and Apple could see fit to add an additional component to take the extra space. It was previously rumored that the iPhone 15 Pro models would come with solid-state buttons. These buttons would require additional Taptic Engines under the buttons for proper haptics. Henceforth, the extra space in the iPhone 16 Pro models could be used for additional components as well.

iPhone 16 Pro Max to feature upgraded periscope and main camera, iPhone 15 Pro Max to remain exclusive

This year, the iPhone 15 Pro Max is exclusively expected to feature a periscope lens. The standard model will pack the same sensor but improved camera quality. It could be true that the iPhone 15 Pro Max has extra space inside the device, which makes room for the periscope lens. Henceforth, Apple could streamline its iPhone 16 Pro models next year with a periscope lens. As for the scale of improvement, the iPhone 16 Pro Max features a 1/1.14-inch camera sensor compared to the iPhone 14 Pro Max's 1/1.28-inch sensor. This year, the company would stick to the same sensor size.

Overall, the iPhone 16 Pro could feature one of the best cameras on a smartphone. Samsung's latest Galaxy S23 Ultra features 10x optical zoom in contrast to Apple's speculated 5x to 6x zoom in the iPhone 15 Pro Max. What this means is that the Cupertino tech giant is working to catch up to its competitors. This is all there is to it, folks. We will keep you guys updated on the latest, so be sure to stick around.
