It looks like the cutouts in the screen will continue to be present in the iPhone lineup for a few years.
Everything indicates that the iPhone 14 they will eliminate the notch in favor of a double hole in the screen, although it won’t be the complete removal of the notch as we’d hoped. However, what we are all waiting for is not that, it is a complete elimination of any type of screen cutout. In other words, for Apple to include Face ID and the front camera under the iPhone screen.
According to Young’s report, Apple plans to choose Face ID under the panel eliminating the need for a notch or hole-like cutout in the screen, but this technology is not expected to be ready for the iPhone 15 launch in 2023. Which makes us think that Until the iPhone 16 of 2024, we will not have an iPhone without cuts On the screen.
We’ve heard from some sources that the Face ID sub-display is likely not complete for 2023 mass production. Part of this could be related to coordination between the display and sensor teams. Of course, at least two of your suppliers will also need to be qualified to mass-produce it. The companies we spoke to weren’t expecting it to launch in 2023.
It seems that one of the main problems Apple is having is infrared radiation from OLED panels. Face ID needs an infrared camera to detect the dots that are projected on our face with the so-called “dot projector”, so it is essential for Face ID.
“Perhaps the most critical area is the replacement of the conventional Yb/MgAg cathode above the OLED panel, which is not very transmissive in the infrared regions”
Therefore, it seems that we will be at least two years with the new Apple solution that replaces the notch. the double hole in the screen It will accompany us until, at least, the iPhone 16.
Almost since the launch of the iPhone X, we can’t wait to see a real all-screen iPhone, without any cutouts and with the minimum possible frames. But the truth is that current technology does not allow it to be created, and it seems that it will still take a few years to become viable. In addition, the quality of the current cameras under the screen leaves something to be desired, and we already know the importance of selfies today.
