It has been posted that the display size of iPhone 17 Plus will be smaller than 6.7 inches.
The iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Plus are expected to use low-temperature polycrystalline oxide (LTPO) organic EL (OLED) displays, and the maximum refresh rate will finally be 120Hz, but the display size will also be changed at the same time. that’s right.
Is iPhone17 Plus 6.5 inches or 6.6 inches?
This forecast was distributed to paid registered users by Ross Young, CEO of DSCC, who is well versed in display industry information.
According to information that Mr. Young understands, the display size of the iPhone 17 Plus will be smaller than 6.7 inches, and will be between the size of the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro Max.
If the iPhone 17 is 6.1 inches and the iPhone 17 Pro Max is 6.9 inches, which is the same as the iPhone 16 Pro Max, the display size of the iPhone 17 Plus may be around 6.5 inches.
Subdivide display size by model
In that case, the iPhone 17 series lineup may be 6.1 inches for iPhone 17, 6.3 inches for iPhone 17 Pro, 6.5 inches for iPhone 17 Plus, and 6.9 inches for iPhone 17 Pro Max, starting from the smallest display size.
In the current model iPhone 15 series, the display size of iPhone 15 Plus and iPhone 15 Pro Max is 6.7 inches.
It is unclear how users will evaluate the smaller display size of the iPhone 17 Plus, but it will add differentiating factors other than camera specs.
Will the display size of iPhone 16 Plus become smaller?
In the iPhone 16 series, there are rumors that only the iPhone 16 Plus will have a smaller battery capacity than the current model.
It would be understandable if it was due to the reduction in display size, but if the reduction in size started with the iPhone 17 Plus, there must be another reason.
