Apple will not introduce a new anti-reflective coating for the iPhone 17 Pro displays, as production scaled-up issues have prevented successful implementation. Even when limiting the coating to Pro models, yield results were inadequate for Apple's production needs. Current displays have a fingerprint-resistant oleophobic coating, yet they lack the anti-reflective properties found in competitors’ products, like the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. This could affect performance and visibility. Future use of Apple's nano-texture technology remains uncertain for iPhones by 2025.
Apple has decided against introducing a new anti-reflective coating on the iPhone 17 Pro displays due to production scaling problems and low yields.
Currently, Apple uses an oleophobic coating, which resists fingerprints but does not perform as well against reflections compared to competitors like Samsung.
The new Gorilla Glass Armor display panel from Samsung significantly reduces reflections by up to 75%, providing better performance in bright conditions.
While Apple has a nano-texture display for the Mac and iPad Pro, it's unclear if this technology will ever be used for iPhones.
