iPhone 20: A Move Toward a Single Slab of Glass

Former Apple design chief Jony Ive always described his long‑term vision for the iPhone as a “single slab of glass.” Apple is believed to have kept that goal long after Ive left, with Liquid Glass representing software prep ahead of new hardware. Reports suggest the 20th anniversary iPhone will bring us significantly closer to that vision.

It is now expected that the iPhone 19 Pro, or perhaps a renamed iPhone 20 Pro, will feature a display that curves on all four sides, creating the illusion of no bezel. Apple is likely to embed the Face ID module beneath the display, with front‑facing camera and speaker also under‑screen, delivering a truly slab‑like look.

Leakers say the iPhone 20 will also return to a glass back, mirroring genyen quality of the first‑generation Air. While glass is fragile, it would reinforce the single‑slab aesthetic. Seven new features are rumored, though details remain speculative.
