This year’s iPhones aren’t expected to be a major upgrade over its predecessors, but it seems that in 2020, Apple will go out and significantly redesign its entire iPhone lineup. While the Cupertino based tech giant will be introducing some attractive upgrades to this year’s lineup, but the real game is expected to take place next year.
The iPhone XR’s successor will reportedly sport an LCD display for this year too, but industry insiders say that Apple will switch to OLEDs completely in 2020. The screen sizes are also not expected to change this time but the Cupertino giant may finally get rid of the notch cut out in 2020.
Although it is not yet clear how the notch will be replaced, Apple could incorporate punch holes in the display or, as a patent has shown, it can put a matrix beneath a display that will allow the sensor emitters to pass between the pixels of the display through invisible pores, in this way Apple will literally place the camera inside the display hidden under it.
Apple will be apparently splitting orders for the OLED panels for the 2020 iPhone lineup between three suppliers, Samsung, LG, and a Chinese display panel manufacturing company BOE. Moreover, next year’s iPhones might also come with an in display finger scanner. It seems that the the 2020 iPhone series is shaping up to be impressive and may help Apple recapture market share it is currently losing.
