iPhone 20th Anniversary Revamped
There are such voices, mainly because there are rumors in the market that Apple will celebrate the 20th anniversary of the iPhone next year and may introduce the most significant design change since the iPhone X. According to current sources, the 20th anniversary iPhone will use "a lot of glass" as the design core, and the screen may be further extended around the body to create a visual effect closer to a true full-screen.
In addition, it is also reported that Apple hopes to hide the Face ID sensing element and front lens under the screen, so that the dynamic island or any digging hole cannot be seen from the front. Although it is still impossible to confirm how much these technologies can ultimately be achieved, the topic of "20th anniversary major revision" has already made many Apple fans want to wait.
Fruit fans may be stuck in multiple-choice questions
This also puts this year’s iPhone 18 Pro series in an interesting situation. For users who have not changed their phones for many years, or whose battery life and performance have begun to fail to keep up, it is quite reasonable to upgrade to a new phone this year. However, if the iPhone in your hand is still usable and you are particularly concerned about the changes in appearance, "lasting it for another year" is indeed more attractive. It seems that whether to switch to the iPhone 18 Pro series this year or wait for the 20th anniversary major revision next year has become the most difficult choice for many Apple fans.
