Rumors about Apple's 2028 iPhone are already circulating, giving an early glimpse of how the company plans to evolve the flagship’s design, display, and cameras. The device follows the 20th‑anniversary iPhone, slated to introduce a display that curves around all four edges for a near borderless effect.

The 2028 model is expected to refine that curved‑glass design rather than replace it, carrying over the all‑glass body, a crater‑shaped light diffusion layer that keeps brightness uniform, and a shift toward solid‑state haptic buttons integrated into the frame. Apple aims to move Face ID and the front camera beneath the display for a cut‑out‑free front that may finally be achieved in 2028.

Technology rumors point to a more transparent indium zinc oxide cathode that should reduce image distortion and heat, lighter bezels, and a tandem OLED that stacks two organic layers for brighter, longer‑lasting panels. The high‑end 2028 will likely feature a 1.4‑nanometer A22 Pro chip built on TSMC’s A14 node, offering up to 15% better performance or 30% lower power draw. Apple has also tested a 200‑megapixel periscope telephoto sensor, which could deliver unprecedented detail for cropping and large‑format prints.

With the device still about 26 months away, none of these details are set in stone, and the further out a rumor sits, the more room there is for change. Buyers of the iPhone 18 Pro this September will likely upgrade to the 2028 iPhone, making these rumors highly relevant for the next two‑year cycle.
