New Leaked Images Show Smaller iPhone 13 Notch In Comparison To iPhone 12 And It’s Still Quite Big

There have been countless rumours of a smaller notch iPhone 13 due this year but now a leaker known as “DuanRui" shared images that could give us our best look at the smaller notch. Apple’s redesigned notch for the iPhone 13 was also compared with the existing iPhone 12 notch to put things into perspective.

The leaker posted three images that originally appeared on Weibo; however, the source of the images still remains unverified. These images appear to be "film samples" or screen protectors for the next iPhone which could give us a better idea of what to expect. 

One can clearly notice that the new notch’s width is smaller than the current notch design but still isn’t a radical change. The reduced width was possible because the earpiece is now being integrated into the top bezel, right about the TrueDepth camera and Face ID sensors. According to a similar report by Mac Otakara, the iPhone 13’s TrueDepth comer system is getting narrower because the receiver at the top of the display will move to the edge instead.

Other reliable Apple leakers such as Ming-Chi Kuo has also said in the past that the iPhone 13 will have a smaller notch but did not mention any further details. According to previously leaked 3D-printed mockups, the new notch design will be 5.35mm in height, as opposed to 5.30mm, and 26.80mm in width, down from 34.83mm.

It’s been five years since Apple introduced the notch with the iPhone X in 2017 and has not changed the design since then. Apple will probably redesign the notch with the iPhone 13 to give users more screen real estate on either side of the notch. 

The iPhone 13 is shaping up to be a bigger upgrade than expected as other rumours suggest the smartphone will also feature a 120Hz “ProMotion” display, larger batteries, a fast A15 chipset amongst other upgrades. Apple’s new flagship devices are expected to launch sometime in September this year and we should know more about the new iPhone closer to its launch date.
