Next-Gen iPhones Could Look Thicker, with Smaller Notch

With the iPhone 12 series being a huge hit already, we guess it is now time for us to discuss the next generation of iPhones, the 13 series. Reportedly called iPhone 13, the first report of 2025 suggests that the two Pro models will have 120Hz OLED panels from Samsung.

According to Japanese blog MacOtakara, the iPhone 13 lineup will retain the iPhone 12’s chassis with the flat edges, but will be approximately 0.26mm thicker and will reduce the size of the notch thanks to a position change of the top receiver.

Additionally, the camera bump will be just as thick with a small change to the appearance. Reportedly, Apple will slap sapphire glass on top of the lenses and make it appear like a single camera unit as opposed to the more exposed design now.

Since the bump remains the same size, we can safely assume that the same camera setup will appear on the iPhone 13 models, which is in line with previous reports about the phone’s design.
