Mark Gurman said "Always-on display for lock screen widgets". Xiao Lei believes that this is the screen-off display function on the iPhone 14 Pro series. The display content of is likely to be iOS 16 Widget information and time and date on the lock screen.
The off-screen display is exclusive to the iPhone 14 Pro series, because it is equipped with an LTPO display with a refresh rate as low as 1Hz, which has the least impact on the battery life of the phone in the off-screen display state. Other iPhone models do not have an off-screen display. It is very likely that and Apple do not want to decentralize it out of consideration for the battery life of the mobile phone.

Therefore, Xiaolei believes that other iPhones cannot achieve "perfect" screen display, and the new function has become exclusive to the iPhone 14 Pro series.
Sources revealed that Samsung will provide Apple with 80 million OLED panels, all of which will be used to produce iPhone 14 series models. 38.17 million of them are traditional LTPS OLED panels, which will be carried by the standard version and Max version, and the remaining All of them are LTPO OLED panels. It can be seen that the stock of high-end models is very sufficient this time, and there should be no shortages or premiums when they go on sale.
