According to multiple sources, Apple’s 2024 iPhone 16 Pro series will be equipped with a larger display. This was first claimed by display analyst Ross Young earlier this month, and a few days later Ming-Chi Kuo expressed a similar view, saying that the Pro models in Apple’s iPhone 16 series will have larger screens.
Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman also said earlier, but there is no clear consensus on how much larger the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max are than their predecessors. Gurman thinks the increase will be fairly small—”a few tenths of an inch diagonally”. (Note: Ross Young thinks it is 6.2 inches and 6.8 inches, while Guo Mingji thinks they will be larger, 6.3 inches and 6.9 inches)
Part of the reason for the larger screen is Apple’s desire to pack additional hardware into these phones, and Mark Gurman believes that Apple will bring a periscope zoom camera is a factor in this.
Now, according to Weibo blogger @Digital chat station, “Next year Apple (temporarily called the iPhone 16 series) will indeed increase the main screen size, especially the super-large Pro Max (Ultra). 1.14-inch super outsole and periscope telephoto, this is Apple’s imaging flagship.”
