We’ve heard a bunch of rumors about next year’s iPhone, tentatively dubbed the iPhone 20, and the changes Apple may implement to celebrate the 20th anniversary of its flagship device.<\/p>\n

One of those rumors claims we’ll see some kind of wraparound glass display that curves around all four edges of the phone, and the newest claim is that prototypes of that design are already being tested.<\/p>\n

This comes from prolific Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station (DCS) over on Weibo. According to the leaker, supply chain rumors suggest the 2027 iPhone will feature a quad-curved screen and that evaluation testing is already underway.<\/p>\n

However, the leaker also claims that the iPhone 19 Pro series, as they’re calling it, is already in mass production, despite the fact that it won’t be going on sale for another 16 months. Phones normally don’t hit the mass production stage until, at most, a few months before they’re released.<\/p>\n

Last we heard, the iPhone Fold, which is arriving later this year, isn’t expected to enter mass production until July. So there’s no way the 2027 iPhone is already being built at scale. DCS may mean the curved screens themselves are being mass-produced, but even that seems unlikely, especially if the design is still in the evaluation and testing stage.<\/p>\n

Quad-curved displays are nothing new and were quite popular among Chinese phone brands for many years. From what we’ve seen and heard, Apple’s take may not be a straight copy of those designs. Instead, the curved edges are supposed to offer a wrap-around effect, and when combined with a glass backplate, could give the illusion that the iPhone 20 is completely made of glass \u2014 rather than a fusion of glass and metal.<\/p>\n

Another tidbit from the post is that these screens will apparently have a hole-punch camera, rather than an under-display camera. That said, DCS suggests that a…<\/p>\n
