Apple Rumored to Drop “Mostly Glass” and Foldable iPhones in 2027

Summary

  • The 20th anniversary of the iPhone in 2027 will be marked by an Apple “product renaissance,” according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman.
  • In 2027, Apple is rumored to release a “mostly-glass, curved iPhone” and the first foldable iPhone.

According to tech expert Mark Gurman’s May 11th newsletter from Bloomberg, it was suggested that the year 2027 could mark a significant period for Apple with a wave of new products, referred to as a “product renaissance,” featuring significant design overhauls.

One intriguing prospect under discussion is a “predominantly curved, largely glass iPhone,” which supposedly won’t have any openings in its display. While Apple started exploring predominantly glass designs with the iPhone X, the upcoming 20th model might push this concept further, potentially concealing the camera and Face ID technology within the screen itself.

Although Samsung has already incorporated displays along the edges of their phones, it remains unclear if Apple will adopt a similar design. Some speculate this might be possible based on Apple patents dating back to 2013 and as recent as 2019, which propose all-glass designs featuring a continuous curve that eliminates the need for side frames altogether.

As per Gurman’s reports, we can expect some new products from Apple in 2027, such as their inaugural foldable iPhone model and their initial line of smart glasses. These innovations are expected to challenge the recent advancements by Meta and Ray-Ban. The newsletter underscores the significant part that Apple Intelligence will play in future Apple inventions, hinting that both the smart glasses and potentially even the AirPods could incorporate Apple’s artificial intelligence, utilizing extra cameras for data collection.

As we move closer to the iPhone’s 20th anniversary in 2027, eager fans can anticipate a flood of information being revealed over time. Keep an eye on TopMob for updates on this exciting milestone.
