We return to talk about the iPhone 15 series, in particular the top-of-the-range model iPhone 15 Pro Max (or Ultra? It’s not yet clear when Apple will want to use this suffix), which could equip an even brighter display than the one present on the current iPhone 14 Pro Max (here our review), which already reaches record values; 1,600 nits in HDR and a whopping 2,000 nits peak when using the smartphone outdoors.
According to reports on Twitter by the insider ShrimpAppleProit seems that Apple could equip the next Pro Max with the brand new latest generation OLED panel made by Samsung, which seems to reach a peak of even 2,500 nits. Obviously we expect that also in this case the maximum brightness will help the user only during environmental situations in which it becomes difficult to read the contents on a display, i.e. during use in direct sunlight, while in all other scenarios should remain on smaller values ​​(although 2,000 nits in HDR certainly becomes within the reach of the panel).
The rumor in question it is only the first in this directionso that’s right for now give it an all in all contained weight, awaiting further confirmation on this feature. The analyst Ross Young – expert on the topic of the display supply chain -, for example, did not confirm the news to colleagues at 9to5Macso it’s good to take everything with a grain of salt.
According to what emerged, However, Apple could increase the maximum brightness even without resorting to a new generation panelinstead going to intervene on some aspects of the technology, such as the implementation of the MLA (multi lens array), which allows you to increase the nits on smaller panels, or replacing the polarizer with the technology color on encapsulationalways let 9to5Mac know.
In both cases, these are solutions that go to reduce the amount of light emitted by the panel that is usually blocked, so that a higher level of brightness can be reached without changing consumption and other panel characteristics significantly. We are therefore awaiting further confirmation.
