Apple‘s iPhone lineup is rumored for a size shift in 2024, with the iPhone 16 Pro models receiving larger displays compared to their predecessors.

According to reliable sources, the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max will boast displays measuring roughly 6.3 inches and 6.9 inches, respectively. This represents a noticeable increase from the current 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch displays on the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max.

The increase in display size comes with slightly larger dimensions overall. Both Pro models will be marginally taller and wider than their 2023 counterparts while retaining the same thickness.

This size shift could have several implications. The larger form factor could allow Apple to incorporate bigger batteries for improved battery life, a common user request. Additionally, the increased display area could pave the way for potential display improvements or other internal upgrades.

It’s rumored that these size changes are currently limited to the Pro models. The standard iPhone 16 and 16 Plus are expected to retain their current 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch displays. However, rumors suggest that Apple might introduce the larger 6.27-inch and 6.85-inch displays to its standard iPhone models with the 2025 iPhone 17 lineup. This could also bring a shift to a taller 19.6:9 aspect ratio for all iPhones.

Remember, these details are based on current rumors and leaks, so take these details with a pinch of salt. Apple will likely launch the iPhone 16 series in September, as usual, so there’s enough time for the company to make changes to the plan. Nevertheless, this shift in display sizes for the Pro models suggests an interesting development in Apple’s iPhone strategy.
