iPhone 16 Pro will have a 20% brighter screen, rumor says

10 May 2024
We're not talking peak brightness here, but typical, day-to-day brightness.

Nice. This is "proper" screen brightness not like other panels claiming 2600, 3000, 4000 nits and then you pair them with an iphone and see that iphone is brighter! Oh but other panels claim it's only in a small patch of the screen...jeez give us a break!

      Being from the UK where the sun does not exist I have never cared about peak brightness!

        Who needs all this brightness? Everyone want to burn their retina out of their eyes or something?

            Sold my iPhone 14 Pro and switched to Pixel. I'm happy now. I don't need an expensive piece of toy to impress people I don't care about.

              I wonder if they do it as planned obsolesence to burn in the screen faster and have us upgrade our phones sooner.

                Innovation!

                    Even $120 entry level LCD smartphones have 1000nits these days 🥱🥱🥱

                    Apple needs to step up, the realme GT neo 6 has a top tier amoled panel

                      give 120Hz first for 16 instead of this useless.

                        Even my iPhone 12 is plenty bright enough in direct sunlight; those crazy brightness numbers in current phones and apparently even crazier ones in upcoming ones like the iPhone 16 are beyond redundant. R&D money is much better invested in battery technology to create more compact, energy-dense batteries that last longer before deteriorating.

                          Slow news day?

                            How about instead having 20% larger battery, 20% lower weight, 30% higher screen resolution , 20% faster storage ?

                              The brighter screen is one of the useless feature that maybe increase the price of "whatever" phone. Current phones is still bright enough.

                                Considering 15 Pro currently has the highest sustain brightness of any smartphones, this is very impressive

                                  At this point its redundant

                                    Yes it will shine brighter than my future
