According to the latest news from the well-known digital blogger “Digital Chat Station”, Apple is currently prototyping and testing a large screen with a physical size of approximately 6.96 inches and a standard size close to 7 inches. This screen has a high chance of debuting on the future iPhone 20 Pro Max, challenging the record for the largest iPhone screen in history.
In response to the grip problem that many users are concerned about, the blogger further revealed that the nearly 7-inch screen will continue the design of the current 6.9-inch model in terms of body proportions, so it will not bring too much additional burden to one-handed holding. Looking back at the development of past models, the iPhone Pro Max series has gradually increased from 6.7 inches in the early days to 6.9 inches in the iPhone 16 Pro Max. If this news is true, it means that the display area of the flagship model will further breakthrough.
In addition to the increase in screen size, the appearance design of the iPhone 20 series may also undergo significant changes. Bloomberg technology reporter Mark Gurman previously mentioned that 2027 will be the 20th anniversary of the release of the iPhone, and Apple is likely to skip the naming of iPhone 19 and directly launch the commemorative iPhone 20 series.
Based on relevant news from the supply chain, the iPhone 20 Pro and iPhone 20 Pro Max are expected to abandon the pure straight screen shape that has been used for many years and instead adopt a four-micro curved screen solution. At the same time, the new phone is also expected to be equipped with complete under-screen Face ID technology for the first time, completely hiding the facial recognition module under the screen. This can not only significantly reduce the width of the front bezel, but also completely get rid of the hole-digging and dynamic island areas, achieving a true full-screen display with a strong sense of integration.
