A reliable leaker says that Apple's iPhone 15 Pro lineup could feature brighter displays, possibly reaching 2,500 nits of brightness. The iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max have the brightest displays of any iPhone, but Apple could be taking it up a notch with the next generation. The next generation may be able to hit 2,500 nits of brightness, thanks to changes in the display panel.
Leaker "ShrimpApplePro" retweeted a post by another leaker, known as "Connor" or "OreXda," on Tuesday that mentioned display panels from Samsung, a longtime supplier of screens for Apple's iPhones. Connor's original tweet stated that "Samsung's next-gen panel hits 2500 nits". The leaker also said: "I still don't know if this is the M13, but it will be two generations after the M11." The M11 is used in Samsung's just-launched Galaxy S23. ShrimpApplePro commented on the tweet, saying it "could be coming to the iPhone 15 Pro Max" For reference, the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max have a typical maximum brightness of 1,000 nits, rising to 1,600 nits for HDR content, and 2,000 nits for outdoor use. It's not unusual for Samsung to create panels that can reach high brightness levels. For example, it created outdoor signage screens that work at 2,500 nits, though that's for large screens rather than compact displays. Samsung hasn't shown the M13 display at the center of the rumors working at that brightness, but it's still a reasonable prospect. Of the two leakers involved in this rumor, ShrimpApplePro is the better known and fairly accurately documented. For example, he did say correctly that the Apple Watch Series 8 won't be redesigned, and he was pretty accurate about the size of the iPhone 14 Pro as well. "Connor" or "OreXda" were not mentioned in previous reports, because they mainly released information about processors and other parameters of Android products, rather than Apple. It's possible that the information provided by "Connor" doesn't refer to Apple at all, as the post is more about Samsung's display technology than its application, and ShrimpApplePro is the one linking it to Apple in this instance.
