The elongated punch could be reserved for the Apple iPhone 14 Pro and the under-screen camera system wouldn’t arrive until 2024, at best.
According to a report from a few weeks ago, it is possible that Apple finally gets rid of the notch for its iPhone 14 to replace it with a punch. Two hallmarks, to be more precise. One round and one oblong. This would bring us closer to an iPhone with a full screen on the front, which many customers of the Apple brand dream of.

That being said, according to new information from DSCC analyst Ross Young, it seems that this elongated punch may be reserved for the iPhone 14 Pro models only.
This would therefore only concern the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max. It would be necessary to wait until 2023 and the iPhone 15 range for the Cupertino company to adopt this design in all of its offer.
And the under-screen camera system wouldn’t arrive until 2024, at best.
For those who hope to one day see a front camera system directly embedded under the screen, which would therefore make it possible to permanently get rid of the notch and the punch, know that Ross Young affirms that, according to his sources, this will not should not happen in 2023.
Indeed, the operation requires coordination between the screen and sensor teams, and it is necessary to be able to find a manufacturer capable of manufacturing the panel in mass, while meeting the many standards imposed by Apple.
While some manufacturers already offer smartphones with a camera module under the screen, these devices are still far from being widespread. The fault, in large part, to the image quality of the pictures and videos obtained with such a system.
In any case, this means that we will most certainly have to wait, at least until 2024, before seeing such an iPhone arrive. There is no doubt, however, that when the Cupertino company is decided, it will guarantee high image quality.
