20th Anniversary iPhone Coming Next Year With These 10 Features

20th Anniversary iPhone Coming Next Year With These 10 Features

Apple’s 20th anniversary iPhone is expected to arrive in the fall of 2027 with the most significant redesign the device has seen since the iPhone X. The first iPhone was announced in January 2007 and went on sale that June, meaning the device’s 20th anniversary technically falls on June 29, 2027. Apple rarely launches new high-end iPhones outside of its September timeframe, and the anniversary models are still expected to arrive in the fall of that year, just as the iPhone X did in 2017 despite marking the 10th anniversary of a device that launched in June. The 2027 model has been rumored for well over a year, with reports pointing to an all-glass design, new display technology, and a series of upgrades Apple has been working toward for several generations. Much as the iPhone X set the template for the years of iPhones that followed, the anniversary model is likely to define the device’s design direction for some time. Apple could skip the name “iPhone 19” in the same way it skipped “iPhone 9” …

Apple Testing 7-Inch Display for Largest 20th Anniversary iPhone Model

Apple Testing 7-Inch Display for Largest 20th Anniversary iPhone Model

Apple is reportedly prototyping a larger iPhone display measuring roughly 6.96 inches, which would likely be marketed as a 7-inch panel if it reaches production. According to Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station, Apple is testing the display internally in preparation for the 20th anniversary iPhone, which is expected to launch next year. The leaker said that the screen ratio is the same as the current iPhone 17 Pro Max, but whether the display is ultimately used in the iPhone 20 Pro Max remains unconfirmed at this stage. Last month, Bloomberg reported that Apple had started ramping up work on two sizes of the 20th anniversary iPhone. Multiple rumors have suggested the device will have an edge-to-edge display with curved glass at all sides for a nearly borderless visual effect. This year’s upcoming iPhone 18 Pro‌ and ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ Max models are expected to be the same dimensions as the current iPhone 17 Pro models, which are available in 6.3- and 6.9-inch sizes. Apple last increased the size of its premium iPhone displays with the …

Tent Collapses During Virginia Church’s 20th Anniversary Celebration, Killing 1 and Injuring 22

A large tent collapsed during a Virginia church’s 20th anniversary celebration on Friday evening, killing one person and injuring nearly two dozen others, officials said. Heavy rain, lightning and strong winds tore through Moneta, a small community about 124 miles (200 kilometers) southwest of Richmond, as the EastLake Community Church was holding an outdoor service, Shelley Basinger, a spokesperson for Bedford County, said in a statement. The group was in the process of leaving the event tent when it collapsed, according to Abbey Johnston, acting chief of Bedford County Fire and Rescue Eleven people were taken to the hospital and 11 others had minor injuries and were treated at the scene, Basinger said. “Initially, I’m told it was a very chaotic scene, trying to account for the individuals,” Johnston told reporters. Officials rushed to rescue everyone inside the tent behind the church and move them to safety as the strong thunderstorm raged on, she said. Troy Keaton, the non-denominational church’s senior pastor, said he had just walked up to the stage to tell the group …

Independent 20th Century Finds a New Home in the Breuer

Independent launched Independent 20th Century in 2022 in the Battery Maritime Building, a Beaux-Arts landmark overlooking New York Harbor. This fall, the fair is moving uptown to Marcel Breuer’s former Whitney Museum building, now Sotheby’s global headquarters. The fifth edition of Independent 20th Century will run from September 24–27 at the Breuer, bringing together 56 exhibitors and presentations devoted to artists and movements from across the 20th century. More than 130 artists will be featured, with roughly 80 percent of the presentations dedicated to one or two artists. For Independent founder Elizabeth Dee, the move marks more than a change of address. Related Articles “This is a rebirth of a new concept for us,” Dee told ARTnews. “We’re moving from downtown to uptown. We’re moving from an early 20th-century icon, the Battery Maritime Building, to the Breuer, which is a mid-century modernist icon.” The new venue has allowed the fair to grow substantially. Independent 20th Century will be nearly twice the size of previous editions, giving organizers room not only for more galleries but also for …

20th Anniversary iPhone’s Curved Display to Improve a Year Later

Apple is already planning a second version of the “four-edge bending” display that is rumored to debut on next year’s 20th-anniversary iPhone, claims a new report out of Korea. For the 20th-anniversary iPhone, Apple is said to be introducing a display that curves down around all four edges of the device for a borderless visual experience. It could be one of the biggest design shifts in the iPhone’s history since the 10th anniversary iPhone X, which saw Apple drop the Home button, introduce a notched display, and adopt an intuitive swipe gesture-based navigation interface. Today, ETNews reports that Apple is planning a two-stage rollout for the new OLED display technology that the commemorative iPhone will use, with a more advanced version said to be coming a year later. For the 2027 variant, Apple will reportedly rely on OLED technology that uses a magnesium-silver (MgAg) alloy in the cathode layer. This implementation can cause image distortion and brightness loss in the curved areas, but Apple is apparently willing to live with the compromise for the 20th-anniversary …

20th Anniversary iPhone’s ‘Liquid Glass’ Display to Make Bezels Vanish

Apple’s 20th-anniversary iPhone will use a new type of curved screen technology that more effectively hides the display bezels from the user’s line of sight for a purer viewing experience, claims a Chinese leaker. Apple is reportedly planning a radical redesign for the 20th-anniversary iPhone that could feature a display that curves around all four edges of the device. To achieve this, Apple will reportedly use an equal-depth quad-curved panel supplied by Samsung, and it sounds like it’s going to be quite different from typical curved screens. According to leaker Ice Universe, “It is not a traditional quad curved display, nor is it anything like the curved screen solutions we have seen on Android phones over the years.” This is said to be down to its extremely subtle curvature, but there are apparently other factors that could come into play. “What truly creates the visual impact may be a sophisticated combination of optical refraction, light guiding structures, and carefully engineered visual illusion,” said Ice Universe, writing in a post on X. “The end result could …
