If the iPhone 14 will reduce its notch to the minimum expression, simply with the hole in the front camera screen and the Face ID "pill", it seems that in the iPhone 15 Pro We can only see the camera, since the TrueDepth sensors will be hidden under the panel.
Without a doubt, it would be a shocking novelty in the iconography of the iPhone. With just one transition model, the iPhone 14, we would go from the current top notch to just a tiny circle which would house the front screen. We will see.
The Elec just posted today report where he explains that Apple plans to adopt a new technology from Samsung, which allows TrueDepth sensors to be housed under the screen panel. And the first iPhone to adopt such a system will be next year's iPhone 15 Pro.
The report notes that Samsung Display is currently developing new under-panel camera technology, and will manufacture such panels so that Apple can hide your Face ID under the screen on the next iPhone next year. With this, the Korean company ensures the manufacture of the panels of at least the iPhone 15 Pro.
It is also explained that said new technology from Samsung Display will be applied first to Samsung Electronics' foldable phones that will be launched next year, and once on the market, it will also be seen in the iPhone 15 Pro.
With this new technology it will be possible to hide a camera under panel, which will include a metal pattern layer using cathode mask materials. In OLED panels, the light emitted by the emission layer at the bottom passes through the cathode at the top. This is called "overcast".
So the cathode must be transparent for the under-panel camera technology to work. Said cathode is designed so that it can be transparent while absorbing light from outside at the same time.
In this way it is possible to house a camera under the light emitting panel towards the outside, and that can capture the light that comes from the outside towards the camera sensor. If this theory really works, the iconic image of future iPhones will change radically, definitely. We will see.
