Yes. Xs Max to Pro Max was kind of lame (except for the cameras) to be honest. I expect no notch (or atleast a smaller one), a larger 6.7" screen, USB-C, 5G and other various improvements.
I’m not sure it’ll disappear entirely, but it really needs to shrink in size. For me, the side bezels are worse especially when you see other manufacturers with much thinner ones.
