LCD can’t possibly be as close to the bezel as OLED, right?
Not sure about round corners (maybe just masking?).

This is a joke honestly if real. The thing with the notch is that it becomes invisible on black backgrounds when watching videos because of the OLED screen which has very deep blacks, however with the lcd the notch will be visible at all times which is really bad for media consumption. Apple has gone to ****.

thats crazy they should lower the prices and start the XS on 799 and the plus at 899 or 949. I bought the X but its way too pricey. also they should make an iPhone SE2 and a smaller iPhone than the X for 649

Who said the LCD model has a notch? Could have chins.
Don’t mind the picture.
 
Another solid prediction by Kuo.

Not even two weeks have passed since the X was launched.

It looks like Apple seriously wants to prevent the bottleneck they experienced this year. I wouldn’t be surprised if:

6.4” OLED = Samsung
5.8” OLED = LG
6.1” LCD = JDI and Sharp

I get the 6.5" and 5.8", but why not make the LCD one smaller (maybe 5")? Make it more of a budget version, to replace the SE form factor. Guess that just makes too much sense.

Good point. Although IMO going from a 4" Form Factor to 5" could be a deal breaker for the SE users. They tend to be extremely focused on the 4" Form. The SE still sells in huge volume and is a Cash Cow for Apple. We also see the demand for the 4.7' 8 not developing. Is it from people wanting bigger phones, or not upgrading? It's a tough call for Timmy. :apple:

It makes no sense because the shift is towards large displays, for the entire industry.

Only diehard SE users think it makes sense.
