According to DSCC analyst Ross Young, Apple is rumored to be changing the screen design of the smartphone regular iPhone
Later, the Notch on the regular iPhone series will be replaced with a Pill Shaped and Punch Hole design.
However, Ross Young also emphasized that the plan will not be implemented on the iPhone output in 2022.
The design change plan will only be implemented on the iPhone 15 , which will be released next year.
Ross Young himself also mentioned the design changes to the iPhone Pro and Pro Max series.
According to him, the Pill Shaped and Punch Hole designs will be available faster on the iPhone Pro and Pro Max series.
Ross Young said that the new design will be applied to the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max, which will be released this year.
In addition, Ross Young also shared a roadmap for the regular iPhone screen design and the Pro series for the next few years. Read more on the second page.
As already mentioned, for iPhones released this year, the screen design changes are only for the iPhone Pro series.
As for the iPhone 15 , which will be released next year, the new regular series will be redesigned, by applying the Pill Shaped and Punch Hole designs.
After the iPhone 15, the following year Ross Young reported that Apple would again make changes to the iPhone design.
According to him, the iPhone output in 2024 will apply the Face ID design on the screen, and still use Punch Hole.
Just like before, the design changes will first be applied to the iPhone Pro and Pro Max series.
As for the regular iPhone series, the Face ID design on the screen and Punch Hole will only be implemented in 2025.
Based on the technical challenges remaining for under panel cameras to meet discerning brands quality requirements as well as panel manufacturers' cost requirements, I still believe this roadmap makes sense for the iPhone. pic.twitter.com/3ck5X3sVcL

Even so, keep in mind that what Ross Young said is still only a rumor.
We'll just have to wait and see if Apple will really change the design of the iPhone, which can be seen from this year's iPhone and next year's iPhone 15.
