We are still testing the new iPhone 12 that were presented in October and we are already with the rumors of the next iPhones of 2021. Go fabric. It will happen again like this year, we were little surprised by the presentation of the iPhone 12 range because almost all its features had already been leaked.
Today's buzz is about screens. it seems that the next models of next year will mount panels Pro Motion 120Hz, like those that mount the current iPad Pro, and will always be on, as with the screens of the Apple Watch Series 6.
A supply chain report from days ago already pointed to the possibility that next year's iPhones will mount a always-on display, (Allways On). And a new follow-up report suggests that these same panels will also be ProMotion with refresh rates of up to 120 Hz.
Both reports suggest that the panel manufacturer LG Display will supply the same type of LTPO panels to the 2021 iPhones that are currently used in the Apple Watch Series 6, so that they can always be on with very little power consumption.
The report you published today TheElec goes in this direction. Explain that the LTPO panels used in next year's iPhones may be ProMotion. This means that the same screen can work in saving mode at 1 Hz, (as with the LTPO screens of the Apple Watch Series 6) or do it in intensive mode up to 120 Hz (like the screens of the iPad Pro).
The rumor of the ProMotion screens is not new, and it was hoped that perhaps the current iPhone 12 could already carry them, but in the end it was not like that. So it's no wonder, with many months to go, that Apple may finally incorporate such panels in the next few iPhones of 2021. We will have to wait seated to find out.
