Highlight The iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max will feature larger displays with ultra-thin bezels (1.15mm). Samsung’s nearly bezel-less OLED display technology enables this design improvement. For the first time, the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max will be assembled in India. Apple aims to offer competitive pricing in India and expand its market presence. There have been lots of leaks and reports outlining almost every detail about the upcoming iPhone 16 series. Amongst the things we know is Apple's upcoming iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max are set to debut with larger displays—6.3 inches and 6.9 inches, respectively. However, what’s interesting is how these larger displays will be provided while maintaining a similar overall size to their predecessors, the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max. We all already guessed that this feat will be achieved through an incredibly thin bezel. A new leak now reports we are getting bezels as thin as just 1.15mm wide. Trusted tech leaker ICE UNIVERSE @UniverseIce took to X (previously Twitter) to reveal this detail. In a post, ICE UNIVERSE shared a rendered image and mentioned, “As the ancient Greek god in charge of bezel, I would definitely buy the iPhone 16 Pro Max. I can’t refuse it.” As the ancient Greek god in charge of bezel, I would definitely buy the iPhone 16 Pro Max . I can’t refuse it. pic.twitter.com/QBhqIh0UE9 — ICE UNIVERSE (@UniverseIce) August 20, 2024 The image posted by ICE UNIVERSE reveals a mere 1.15mm bezels. If these reports are true, this will make both iPhone 16 models have the thinnest bezel ever on an iPhone. This design enhancement is made possible by advanced screen technology from Samsung, which has been tasked with developing a nearly bezel-less OLED display. The managing director of Samsung Display previously was quoted almost confirming this by saying, "Samsung Display is preparing an under-panel camera (UPC) and a zero-bezel concept product that completely removes the border itself." The result will be a lot more elegant and visually appealing device that maximizes screen real estate without increasing the phone's footprint. This will also be noticeably thinner than the 50% wider bezel of the iPhone 15 Pro Max. iPhone 16 Pro Max To Be Made in India iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max models will be assembled in India at the Foxconn factory in Tamil Nadu. In another news update on the Apple iPhone 16 series, it is being reported that Apple is shifting its production strategy. For the first time, the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max models will be assembled in India at the Foxconn factory in Tamil Nadu. This move is part of Apple's broader effort to reduce its reliance on China amidst ongoing trade tensions. The iPhones assembled in India will not only be sold domestically but also exported to key markets such as the United States and Europe. A news report claimed that while the iPhones used to have a stamp "Designed by Apple in California, Assembled in China" on the back of the handset, the country of origin stamp has now been moved inside the charging port. Your next iPhone 16 Pro will be made in India. (Image credit – News18). Thus, instead of China, some iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max batches will say India inside the USB-C port when placing them face down. Will iPhone 16 Be More Affordable in India? Apple manufactured less than 15% of its iPhones in India. While the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max will be assembled in India, the more affordable iPhone 16 and 16 Plus models will also be produced locally, catering to the broader Indian market. Certain media reports suggest that local assembly should also help Apple cut down the prices of these marquee models by up to 10%. Last fiscal year, Apple manufactured less than 15% of its iPhones in India, primarily targeting the local market. However, with the success of local assembly and government incentives, Apple is now confident in expanding production to include its most high-end model, the Pro series. This shift allows Apple to offer more competitive pricing in India by avoiding high import taxes, contributing to its record $8 billion in iPhone sales in the country last year. This strategic decision also highlights Apple's growing commitment to India as both a production hub and a key market for its products.
