A new leak on the iPhone 15 ensures that the side frame of the screen will be minimal, the thinnest on the entire market.
The leaks about the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro continue to happen and, after the leak of the 3D models, now we have new information regarding its design. It seems that The iPhone 15 Pro will have very small screen framessomething that we could appreciate in the filtered crystals a few days ago.
New information ensures that Apple will considerably reduce the side frames of the screen of its iPhone 15 Pro. This is something that has not happened since the iPhone X, practically since then the black frames on the screen have remained constant. But with the iPhone 15 Pro Apple will reduce them no less than 0.62 mm.

The iPhone 15 Pro Max will have minimal frames
According to the latest leaks, it seems that the iPhone 15 Pro Max will be the smartphone on the market with the thinnest side frames. At the moment, the Xiaomi 13 has this honor by having a 1.81 mm frame. The Samsung Galaxy S23 have a 1.95mm frame and the current iPhone 14 Pro have a 2.17mm frame.
However, the iPhone 15 Pro Max, and we imagine the iPhone 15 Pro as well, will drop all these records by sporting a black side bezel of only 1.55mm. Which is a considerable reduction compared to the framework that the iPhone has had for years.
The iPhone 15 Pro Max will break the 1.81mm black bezel record held by Xiaomi 13, and we measure its cover plate black bezel width to be just 1.55mm. (S22 and S23 ≈1.95mm, iPhone 14 Pro 2.17mm)

This design improvement will be exclusive to the iPhone 15 Pro, such as other major design changes related to the volume buttons or the ProMotion screen. And honestly, it’s about time Apple reduced the side bezels on its iPhones.
This change in frames will cause the “all screen” design is much closer, so they will look like much more futuristic devices than current ones. Now all that remains is to completely remove the screen cutouts, although that will have to wait a couple of generations.
