When Apple launched the iPhone 13, the company kept the "bangs" design, but a smaller one. However, for some users the design differences are still not large enough, which is why, if you were thinking of upgrading, you may still be able to resist up to the iPhone 14, which will be launched next year.
According to a post on Weibo by Digital Chat Station, a well-known leaker, Apple has begun testing a new 120Hz display with a perforated cutout for the front camera. This is a design that many other Android phones have adopted in the past to try to reduce the bangs, so it's not a completely new design.
This statement seems to be confirmed by another by analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who said that for the iPhone 14, Apple could adopt the cut. Mark Gurman of Bloomberg had also suggested that for the iPhone 14, Apple could go with a completely new design, so a notch-free iPhone seems like a possibility.
The iPhone 13 is an upgrade over its predecessor, but apart from the usual performance updates, there are no major differences. For those who are thinking of upgrading, if they can wait another year, maybe the iPhone 14 could be a more suitable smartphone.
