However, that doesn\u2019t mean the California-based giant won\u2019t face problems with this design, as a new report highlights a flaw that may not be addressed next year, when Apple\u2019s 20th-anniversary launch takes place.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-materials-used-for-the-iphone-20-s-quad-curved-design-carry-a-distortion-risk-at-the-edges-that-can-decrease-the-panel-s-overall-brightness\">The materials used for the iPhone 20\u2019s quad-curved design carry a distortion risk at the edges that can decrease the panel\u2019s overall brightness<\/h2>\n<p>The technical aspect of the flaw has been highlighted by Korean technology media outlet ETNews, stating that the display cathode layer is made of a magnesium-silver alloy that risks distortion at the screen\u2019s edges, resulting in a brightness reduction. Apple will likely view this flaw as a blemish to the iPhone 20\u2019s entire design, which is why the report mentions that the Cupertino firm will replace the magnesium-silver alloy with Indium-Zinc Oxide (IZO).<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, don\u2019t expect the iPhone 20 to be treated to this change next year because Apple is expected to implement it in 2028, with Samsung and LG closely working with its customer to address this issue. Interestingly, LG wasn\u2019t mentioned as a supply chain partner for Apple\u2019s iPhone 20 as the company reportedly formed an exclusive partnership with Samsung.<\/p>\n<p>Having a single manufacturer will raise the quad-curved display\u2019s price, which is why LG could be added to the supplier list in 2028. The Korean display manufacturer will inject around 1.106 trillion won (approximately $741.29 million) into the construction and operation of a new facility.<\/p>\n<p>The IZO cathode layer is&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wccftech.com\/iphone-20-quad-curved-display-design-has-a-major-design-flaw\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apple\u2019s Quad-Curved Display Design For The iPhone 20 Has A Major Flaw, But The Company&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":245728,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cdn.wccftech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/iPhone-20-with-Liquid-Glass-Display.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[120],"tags":[89],"class_list":["post-245726","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-iphone","tag-flaw"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/245726"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=245726"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/245726\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":245730,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/245726\/revisions\/245730"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/245728"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=245726"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=245726"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=245726"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
