20th Anniversary iPhone's 'Liquid Glass' Display to Make Bezels Vanish
MacRumors • • technology
Key Points:
- Apple plans a radical redesign for its 20th-anniversary iPhone, featuring a new type of curved screen technology that curves around all four edges for a purer viewing experience with nearly invisible bezels.
- The display will use an equal-depth quad-curved panel supplied by Samsung, incorporating subtle curvature combined with optical refraction and light guiding structures to create a visual illusion that minimizes bezel visibility.
- The iPhone will adopt Samsung's COE (Color Filter on Encapsulation) OLED technology, making the display brighter and thinner, potentially branded by Apple as a "Liquid Glass Display."
- Apple aims for an uninterrupted display with no cutouts, but integrating Face ID and the selfie camera under the panel remains a significant technical challenge for the 2027 model.
