A man walks up the stairs at the Apple Store in Grand Central Station February 25, 2016. - Apple has been in a legal fight with the government in the San Bernardino case, where the FBI wants the company to help hacking the iPhone of Syed Farook.
Now, newly leaked glass panels of the iPhone 15 models show that the Pro and Pro Max could have ultra-thin bezels.
If this is true, then the new iOS devices could offer an experience that is almost comparable to all-screen smartphones.

In the leaked videos, you can see that the front screen panels of the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max really have ultra-thin bezels.
However, the ones for the base iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus still have the common bezel sizes.
Unknownz21 said that the front screen panels were bought by a screen protector maker, clarifying that the video didn't come from his sources.

However, since Apple didn't confirm these details, the best thing you can do is wait for the iPhone maker's official announcement before making any conclusion.
Benefits of Thinner Bezels
For some iPhone users, having thinner bezels is a big deal.
Tech experts explained that thin bezels could lead to larger screens.
Aside from this, they could also allow smartphone makers to reduce the size of their devices.
This can make handsets more comfortable to hold and easier to carry.
