There are the first prototypes of the iPhone 19 Pro with a “Quad Curved” display
According to Weibo leaker Digital Chat Station, Apple is currently testing prototypes of the iPhone 19 Pro with a display that wraps around all four edges of the case. Such reports are not new, but Apple now seems to have manufactured the first functional devices. It also remained uncertain whether Apple would position such a device as a regular Pro model, as a Pro Max or as a separate Ultra or anniversary variant. According to Digital Chat Station, it is almost certainly a Pro model. When we talk about a “Quad Curved” display, that probably doesn’t describe surfaces over the edges like on some Android devices – but rather a strongly curved panel, which gives the impression that there are no corners anymore due to the bend.
What happens to the front camera?
At the same time, the leaker comments on a rumor that can be described as a long-running favorite in the rumor mill, namely the camera located behind the display including TrueDepth sensors for Face ID. This step in particular is considered difficult because “under display” cameras often suffer from poorer image/sensor quality because the light falls through the display structure. Apple’s goal is to implement an uninterrupted design, which also includes hiding the cameras – but here there are still technical hurdles and unclear chances of success.
