Radical design preparation from Apple for the 2027 iPhone Pro

While Apple’s special plans for the 20th anniversary of the iPhone have been on the agenda for a long time, the latest information shows that the company will evaluate this milestone with a design change spread across the Pro series rather than a single special model. Contrary to the previous “special anniversary iPhone” claims, it is stated that the iPhone Pro and iPhone Pro Max models, which are expected to be introduced in 2027, will adopt the new generation design approach. Initial details indicate that a four-sided curved screen structure will be used in these models.

The four-sided curved screen design in question has been tried by some Chinese smartphone manufacturers in the past. However, over time, these manufacturers turned to designs with flatter frames and sharp lines. It is noteworthy that Apple has adopted a different approach and brought this design to the agenda again. While this choice shows that the company continues to seek differentiation in hardware design, it remains unclear for now how it will contribute to user experience.

In addition, it is also stated that Apple is working on under-screen camera technology. The company’s goal of placing the front camera system under the screen has been talked about for a long time. However, current information does not provide a clear picture of whether this technology will be ready by 2027. On the other hand, the possibility of Face ID sensors placed under the screen remains on the agenda.

Under-screen technologies are on the agenda again in iPhone Pro models

Apple’s plans to move its biometric authentication system, Face ID, under the screen have been covered in various reports for years. Despite this, the fact that no concrete progress has been seen to date suggests that the development of this technology is more challenging than expected. In addition, existing examples of under-screen camera solutions have some limitations in terms of image quality. Apple’s lack of haste in this area coincides with its approach to maintaining quality standards.

In addition to all these, how the four-sided curved screen will affect the ergonomics and durability of the device also poses an important question mark. Although curved screens offer an aesthetically striking appearance, they can receive criticism on issues such as incorrect touch detection and fragility. How Apple develops solutions to such problems can directly affect how the products are received by users.

Available information shows that Apple is working on comprehensive changes on both the design and hardware side of the 2027 iPhone Pro models. Despite this, it is not yet clear whether all of these innovations will be reflected in the final products. It is possible that the company may choose to postpone some technologies and offer them after making them more mature, as in previous years. For this reason, the 2027 iPhone Pro models stand out as an update to be watched carefully in terms of both design language and technical features.
