Apple expected to replace Notch with Pill-and-Hole on all iPhone 15 models

All four iPhone 15 models scheduled to be released next year will use a pill-and-hole display design to replace the notch, which has a considerable track record when it comes to display-related information.

A roadmap suggests that both the standard and Pro models of the iPhone 15 will feature a pill-hole layout, with a pill-shaped cutout for the Face ID sensor and one for the front-facing camera. hole. By comparison, only the iPhone 14 Pro models are expected to switch to a pill-hole design this year, with the standard iPhone 14 models expected to retain the same notch as the iPhone 13 models.

Apple’s ultimate goal is to move the Face ID sensor and front-facing camera completely below the display. If development is successful, the transition is expected to begin with under-display Face ID on the 2024 iPhone 16 Pro models, followed by under-display Face ID and under-display front-facing cameras on the 2026 iPhone 18 Pro models.

The pill-hole design will result in a slightly larger screen size for the iPhone 14 Pro models compared to the iPhone 13 Pro models.

Barring any major supply chain disruptions, Apple is expected to launch the iPhone 14 series in September. For the Pro model, an upgraded 48-megapixel rear camera is expected to support 8K video recording, currently 4K, the sixth-generation iPad mini will feature an 8.3-inch display, and the 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pro models will feature ProMotion.
