Apple is actively preparing for the “largest iPhone update” in its history. This unexpected news was shared by Bloomberg columnist Mark Gurman, who specializes in insider information.
Main theses:
- Apple recently confirmed the development of a completely “frameless iPhone.”
- Steve Jobs dreamed of such a smartphone for quite a long time.
New iPhone update — what Apple has planned
According to insiders, the company is planning several radical changes at once.
First of all, we are talking about the transformation of the appearance and form factor of the popular smartphone.
Mark Gurman has information that Apple will introduce its first foldable iPhone model in a few months.
The insider also notes that this is a device with a foldable display. It will be similar to the Samsung Z Fold.
According to him, the new product will offer a large internal panel for videos, games, and multitasking.
There is currently no publicly available data on the specifications, but it is known for certain that iOS 27 will be the first mobile operating system that Apple is developing with a focus on the foldable format.
It was previously believed that the device would receive an improved hinge without a noticeable crease at the bend, but Apple engineers failed to achieve such an effect.
In 2027, Apple wants to introduce a model with a bezel-less display that will take up the entire front panel — the front panel will be located under the screen.
