The iPhone Will Soon Turn 20, but the Last Thing It Needs Is an All-Glass Makeover

  • Apple plans to launch a radically redesigned iPhone in 2027 to mark the 20th anniversary of the original iPhone.
  • This redesign follows from prior milestones like the iPhone X in 2017, which removed the Home button and introduced a notched display and swipe navigation.
  • The new model may feature a bezel-free, four-edge curved display with under-screen cameras, sensors, and Face ID, using advanced OLED and silicon battery technologies.
  • Reports describe a 'single slab of glass' design with display driver ICs using 16nm FinFET technology and emphasize major technical challenges in sensor placement and structural integrity.
  • If successful, this iPhone could represent one of Apple’s largest hardware leaps since 2017 but may face issues like fragility, higher costs, and changes to user interaction.
