All iPhone 16 models could be getting skinnier bezels around their displays, thanks to new advancements in smartphone screen production.
Reporting from Sisajournal in Korea (shared by leaker Revegnus on X/Twitter), referencing industry sources, states that the new iPhones could implement a Border Reduction Structure (or BRS) to shrink the bezels surrounding their displays.
Great news for all iPhone 16 buyers
The iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max currently have the thinnest bezels of any iPhone, with the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus not far behind. Having all the new iPhones use BRS could mean unified bezels across the whole model line-up, which would be a nice touch in particular for the entry-level versions.
The iPhone 16 Pro models would be able to differentiate themselves anyway, since the rumor mill also claims their display sizes will be changing. We may still see the same size 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch displays for the standard and Plus models, but the Pro and Pro Max could expand to 6.3 and 6.9 inches respectively.
These rumors already have us looking forward to September, the likely month we'll see these new iPhones. If you also want to keep up with the latest developments in rumors and leaks for the iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max, then check out our regularly updated news hubs.
