Leaks concerning 2021’s crop of iPhones have seen a number of twists and turns, the least of which concern whether they will be called the 13 or 12s series. However, the latest rumor, coming courtesy of the XDA contributor Max Weinbach via a new EverythingApplePro video, asserts that a major trend in smartphones is finally to be adopted by them this year.
Always-on displays, pioneered by Samsung, have become hot features due to their ability to keep the user updated to a device’s status at a glance. They are strongly associated with AMOLED displays, as they can leave pixels on over an otherwise black background. They were well-received when they came to Apple Watches in their fifth generation, but have yet to make it to iPhones.

Apple iPhone 13 could get an always-on display and might also support high-refresh rate, as per a new leak. Apple is unlikely to launch the successors to the iPhone 12 series at least in the first half of the year but new leak gives us a look at some of the features that Apple could be working on for the iPhone 13 lineup.
According to a video by EverythingApplePro based on a tip from Max Weinbach, the iPhone 13 is slated to get an always-on display, making it the first of its kind. Until now, Apple has been using the feature on its smartwatches but the next generation of phones could soon receive it. As per the information, iPhone 13 could feature LTPO display technology which has been developed by Apple for always-on display functionality in OLED screens.
