The new "iPhone 14 Pro" and "iPhone 14 Pro Max" displays will be larger by hundredths of a millimeter according to a supply chain analyst.
Leaks have shown that the "iPhone 14 Pro" models will feature a pill and hole cutout with slimmer bezels around the display. These changes will provide slight increases to the overall display area available.
Display supply chain analyst Ross Young has shared the exact measurements for these new models. He attributes the increase in size to the bezels and the cutout, although the cutout shouldn't affect display size, just effective display area.
According to his tweet, the "iPhone 14 Pro" would have a 6.12-inch diagonal versus the iPhone 13 Pro 6.06-inch diagonal. The "iPhone 14 Pro Max" has an even smaller change to 6.69 inches from 6.68 inches.
iPhone 13 Pro - 6.06"

iPhone 14 Pro - 6.12"
iPhone 13 Pro Max - 6.68"
iPhone 14 Pro Max - 6.69"
Differences due to pill + hole replacing the notch and narrower bezels.
It is unlikely that this display diagonal increase will be perceptible to users. The "iPhone 14" lineup is expected to be announced during an Apple event in September.

I think it’s time declare that we’ve reached peak Apple news.
Bad copy editing once again: it's hundredths of an INCH, not hundredths of a millimeter.
0.06 inches is actually somewhat noticeable; that's basically 1/16".
TSMC is raising prices again. Will Apple raise prices on new iPhone 14?
Why not keep the damn notch, skip the pill and pinhole and go straight to neither in (hopefully) 2023.
