Apple is inching closer to realizing Steve Jobs’ dream of a “perfect glass cube” with its upcoming iPhone 20 Pro, slated for release in 2027. According to Bloomberg’s latest revelations, this iPhone model will boast a buttonless, portless, bezel-less, and fully curved glass design, pushing the boundaries of technology.
ET News Korea reports that Apple and its supply chain are developing a “four-curved edge” screen technology, creating a seamless glass front that wraps around all four sides of the device. The traditional bezel has been relocated to the side edges, creating an “invisible” effect when viewed head-on. Beneath this glass lies an under-display camera system, including Face ID, allowing for a truly immersive viewing experience without the need for a notch or cutout.
Apple is also planning to incorporate solid-state batteries with silicon-based cathodes, significantly enhancing battery life. With a portless design, users will rely solely on wireless charging, primarily through Apple’s MagSafe system.

These groundbreaking improvements are expected to debut in 2027, marking two significant anniversaries: 20 years since the introduction of the first iPhone by Steve Jobs on January 9, 2007, and 10 years since the release of the iPhone X, Apple’s first OLED iPhone with gesture navigation.
The key question now is not about design or concept but whether Apple’s supply chain can deliver on such a complex product. While Apple is gradually moving its production out of China, it is believed that the assembly of the iPhone 20 Pro will largely remain in the country, leveraging its decades-long expertise in manufacturing world-changing iPhones.
If all goes according to plan, the iPhone 20 Pro could be a monumental leap forward in smartphone design, solidifying Apple’s position as the leader in the industry, despite the dynamic nature of technological advancements since the first iPhone’s debut in 2007.
