Apple is preparing for a significant redesign for their iPhone 20 to mark the 20th anniversary of their device in the year 2027. A Bloomberg report stated that the new model will have a curved glass edge all around; it marks a new age of Apple's evolving Liquid Glass design philosophy for iOS.

On their 10th anniversary in 2017, iPhone X was launched, and the introduction of the all-screen display gave their devices a new look and also removed the physical home button.

According to reports, Apple is prepared to design its first foldable iPhone, which is scheduled for 2026. Bloomberg reports that Apple is improving their screen technology and are likely to reduce the visibility of the crease, which mostly appears when the device folds.

Foldable iPhone Expected Before 2027

Before the iPhone 20 release, Apple is said to be preparing its first foldable iPhone, scheduled for 2026. Bloomberg notes that the company is working on switching screen technology, likely to reduce the visibility of the crease that appears when the device folds.

The foldable iPhone is rumored to feature a larger display when unfolded, similar to Samsung's Galaxy Fold lineup. Apple is reportedly partnering with LG Display to develop the foldable screen technology, which would allow for a seamless display when the device is opened up.

Additionally, Apple is said to be focusing on improving the durability of the foldable iPhone, as issues with screen durability have plagued other foldable devices in the past. The company is expected to conduct extensive testing to ensure that the folding mechanism is robust and long-lasting.

While specific details about the foldable iPhone are still scarce, the device is expected to be a game-changer in the smartphone industry, offering a new form factor and user experience for consumers. With Apple's reputation for innovative design and technology, the foldable iPhone is sure to generate a lot of buzz and excitement when it finally hits the market in 2026.

Tech industry analysts believe Apple is about to enter a new era of innovation in terms of design, and it might kickstart with their curved and foldable displays that are about to become a mainstream feature.

Some believe that the curved glass edge may be a more immersive display, while the foldable design could also bring in more functionalities without touching portability.
