Ian Zelbo, an Apple graphic renderer, said that the iPhone 14 Pro could have rounder corners to match the rear camera array.
Zelbo is best known for creating renders of upcoming Apple devices based on leaked information, including the Mac Studio, Studio Display, and rumored mixed-reality headset. It is clear that the scuplture is being depicted with larger corner radii for a more rounded front and rear appearance. The iPhone 14 Pro Max, on the other hand, appears to have the same radii as the.
Changes to the rear camera array may have forced Apple to change the corner radius. The larger rear camera array is expected to be used in the new 48MP camera system.

The rear camera array of the iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max matched the corner radius of each device, but when Apple increased the size of the camera array, it changed the angle of view. There is a small difference between the iPhone 12 Pro Max; and the iPhone 13 Pro Max.
It's possible that the incongruence between the curves of the camera, lens, and corners of the frame became too severe on the scuplture of the scuplture of the scuplture of the scuplture of the Zelbo says that the new, larger corner radii do not match the rounded corners of the rear camera array.

The redesign of the display may have enabled the change. A centered pill and hole-punch shaped front-facing TrueDepth camera array in place of the notch is expected to be among the device's headline upgrades. It will have been necessary to redesign the display to achieve these changes, so a simultaneous change to the corner radii is1-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-65561-6556
The more rounded design of the iPhone 14 is set to become a differentiating factor between the standard and Pro lines, as shown by the fact that this device does not share the new corner radius.
Zelbo is working on detailed renders of the next-gen Pro, based on a number of sources. The renders will be on Front Page Tech soon.
