The 20th anniversary iPhone will have a completely new design

Apple is considering a complete redesign of the 20th anniversary iPhone in 2027, with a completely bezel-less display that extends to all four sides.

According to ETNews , the screen on the 20th anniversary iPhone version is not only curved to the left and right edges like many previous phone models, but has a design that wraps around both the top and bottom, promising to bring a seamless visual experience on every corner of the product.

A report from Bloomberg also said that Apple is planning to launch "an iPhone with a curved screen and no bezels at all." The Information also revealed that at least one iPhone model launching in 2027 will have a truly edge-to-edge screen.

The 20th anniversary iPhone will have a four-sided curved screen design

The new edge-to-edge display technology is considered a major effort by Apple in the development of next-generation hardware for the iPhone. The "bitten apple" is also said to be developing an OLED display driver based on a 16nm process, instead of the current 28nm process.

Sources from the supply chain said Apple will soon discuss with OLED display suppliers including LG Display and Samsung Display about implementing advanced technologies on the 20th anniversary iPhone version.

In addition, sources from ETNews also said that Apple is also seriously considering integrating high-bandwidth mobile memory (HBM) into the iPhone line launched in 2027 - the year marking the 20th anniversary of the iPhone's launch.

The use of HBM is a major change for Apple. HBM requires stacking multiple layers of DRAM, which increases the speed of signal transmission and bandwidth. This allows the processor to access and process data much faster.

Typically, HBM is connected to the application processor, but it can also be connected to the GPU, which is crucial for AI processing. This is how Apple applies Unified Memory in Macs using Apple Silicon chips.

The source said that “Apple” is considering changing the design of the processor chip to better serve AI. They also said that the possibility of connecting HBM directly to the GPU is very high.

There are also rumors that Apple will use all-silicon (no graphite) cathodes, which will improve performance and battery life on the 20th anniversary iPhone. Since AI is high-performance and power-hungry, any improvements in battery efficiency or new battery technology will help make the iPhone a more powerful AI device.

However, technology experts say Apple will face many technical challenges when implementing these ideas. With a four-sided curved screen design, the company will need to rearrange the location of sensors, cameras and speakers below the screen.

The four-sided curved screen design will make it difficult to ensure product durability. In addition, Apple also needs to handle a series of software-related issues so that the hardware components can operate stably.
