That would mean all four edges of the screen would be curved, though we\u2019d suspect it might only be a slight curve, especially on the top and bottom edges.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve seen this idea before on phones like the Honor Magic 6 Pro and the Motorola Edge 60, so it&#8217;s not a new concept, and dual-curved screens used to be very popular among Android phone makers (even if, these days, most Android devices have flat screens).<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"inline-flex items-center gap-1.5 text-sm font-article-heading capitalize leading-5 text-white whitespace-nowrap\"><span class=\"jwp-carousel-title-mobile\"\/><span class=\"jwp-carousel-title-desktop\">Latest Videos From<\/span><span class=\"jwp-carousel-brand inline-flex items-center\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/media\/img\/techradar_logo_v2.svg\" alt=\"\" class=\"max-h-12 w-auto\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\/><br \/>\n        <span class=\"\n            flex\n            after:content-[''] after:flex-1 after:ml-4 after:my-[0.7rem] after:border-t after:border-solid after:border-t-[#ccc]\n            before:content-[''] before:flex-1 before:mr-4 before:my-[0.7rem] before:border-t before:border-solid before:border-t-[#ccc]\n            font-article-heading pb-0 text-[length:var(--article-river-title--font-size,1em)] uppercase sm:text-[length:var(--article-river-title--font-size,0.875em)] font-bold\n        \"><br \/>\n            You may like<br \/>\n        <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.27%;\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SZcXqkQUzYAmhi74xhqd7D.jpg\" alt=\"Honor Magic 6 Pro\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SZcXqkQUzYAmhi74xhqd7D-1200-80.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SZcXqkQUzYAmhi74xhqd7D-1024-80.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SZcXqkQUzYAmhi74xhqd7D-970-80.jpg 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SZcXqkQUzYAmhi74xhqd7D-650-80.jpg 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SZcXqkQUzYAmhi74xhqd7D-480-80.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SZcXqkQUzYAmhi74xhqd7D-320-80.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" loading=\"lazy\" data-new-v2-image=\"true\" data-original-mos=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SZcXqkQUzYAmhi74xhqd7D.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SZcXqkQUzYAmhi74xhqd7D.jpg\" class=\"rounded-[var(--image--border-radius,0)] inline\"\/>\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"caption-text\">The Honor Magic 6 Pro has a quad-curved screen <\/span><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Future \/ Axel Metz)<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"follow-the-leader-4\">Follow the leader<\/h2>\n<p id=\"elk-0e312206-95a8-4a14-a55b-3d153e4029bc-0\">However, if Apple really does launch a quad-curved iPhone, then it\u2019s very likely that we\u2019ll see a lot of Android devices following suit.<\/p>\n<p>Quad-curved screens look striking and can reduce the visible display bezels, so they certainly have upsides. And it makes sense that Apple would want to turn heads with the iPhone 19 Pro line, since these phones will be the 20th-generation iPhone models (hello, iPhone XX?).<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve also previously heard that the iPhone 19 Pro could have an under-display Face ID component, meaning it&#8217;d either have just a small punch-hole camera or no cut-out in the screen at all. So, you might want to skip the iPhone 18 line and hold out for September 2027, when the iPhone 19 Pro series is expected to land.<\/p>\n<p>Today&#8217;s best iPhone deals<\/p>\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:31.51%;\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/diM9tpwF2Lz85R8q85CT78.jpg\" alt=\"Google logo on a black background next to text reading 'Click to follow TechRadar'\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/diM9tpwF2Lz85R8q85CT78-676-80.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/diM9tpwF2Lz85R8q85CT78-676-80.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/diM9tpwF2Lz85R8q85CT78-676-80.jpg 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/diM9tpwF2Lz85R8q85CT78-650-80.jpg 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/diM9tpwF2Lz85R8q85CT78-480-80.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/diM9tpwF2Lz85R8q85CT78-320-80.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" loading=\"lazy\" data-new-v2-image=\"true\" data-original-mos=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/diM9tpwF2Lz85R8q85CT78.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/diM9tpwF2Lz85R8q85CT78.jpg\" class=\"rounded-[var(--image--border-radius,0)] pull-rightinline\"\/>\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"elk-bb542066-3965-45a2-a709-a94a689f5eb6\"><strong>Follow TechRadar on Google&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/phones\/iphone\/think-iphones-have-become-boring-apple-could-debut-quad-curved-screens-on-the-iphone-19-pro-series-and-you-know-what-that-means-for-future-android-phones\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Think iPhones have become boring?
