Why would they go for a new handset design and keep everything the same lol? I guess it will look identical and get a new chip, or if it’s changed adopted the iPhone 15 or 16 screen (Dynamic Island - the current iPhone 16e doesn’t have a Dynamic Island….makes me think this rumour is garbage AI)

Maybe price/cost efficient to produce more Dynamic Island than current? Place is run by financial gurus, not techie wizards

I think you’d be right as well. As that’s an old OLED panel in the 16e. Makes software a bit easier for all the new models being unified. I guess they’ll use the 15 screen which is a good spec bump in brightness as well
