For the 10th anniversary of the iPhone,
Mashable's Tech Team embarked on an ambitious project: to imagine what the
iPhone of 2020 would look like. The idea wasn't to just throw out a bunch of futuristic ideas, but to look at recent rumors surrounding the iPhone 8, Apple's history with the iPhone, and current mobile trends to create a realistic portrayal of what the iPhone will look like three years from now.
What we ended up with something that — while clearly a step beyond the smartphones of today — is unmistakably an iPhone. But an iPhone with an edge-to-edge screen, no home button, a more AI-driven version of iOS, and no ports whatsoever.
What will the iPhone really look like in the future? Check out our vision of
iPhone 2020, and feel free to tell us what you think of it at
