(Pocket-lint) – Picking out a new iPhone wallpaper can be challenging.
It has to be crisp, beautiful, breath-taking, inspiring, bold, rich, and preferably all of the above. We’ve scoured the web looking for some of the coolest and best iPhone backgrounds and made sure to only select ones with a high resolution.
There are trippy geometric shapes, minimalist scenes, bokeh effects, space shots, starry nights, and more. We’ve even included hobby and sports-themed wallpapers, so everyone should be able to find something. Just be sure to click the download link under each cropped preview, and then you can long-press (or right-click) on the original, full-res image to save it to your iPhone.
How to change your iPhone wallpaper
You can set the wallpaper as your home screen, lock screen, or both.
- In Settings, tap Wallpaper > Choose a New Wallpaper.
- Choose an image from dynamic, stills, live, or your own photos.
- If you want your own photo, choose which one from your list of albums.
- Drag to move and scale the image – you can also pinch to zoom in and out.
- Finish by tapping Set.
