iPhone 16 Pro models may feature thinnest bezels- Know what's expected

Apple is poised to introduce major display improvements with the upcoming iPhone 16 series. According to recent leaks, the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will boast significantly thinner bezels compared to the current iPhone 15 lineup. This reduction in bezel size is expected to enhance the screen-to-body ratio of the new devices.

Thinner Bezels for Improved Screen-to-Body Ratio

The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max are anticipated to have bezels measuring just 1.15mm. This is a notable decrease from the bezels on the iPhone 15 Pro. Specifically, the iPhone 16 Pro is rumoured to have 1.2mm bezels, while the iPhone 16 Pro Max's bezels would measure 1.15mm. For comparison, the iPhone 14 Pro's bezels measure 2.15mm, and the iPhone 15 Pro's bezels are 1.71mm. Tipster Setsuna Digital, who shared this information on Weibo, claimed that these will be the world's thinnest screen bezels.
