what about the recent leaks with iPad design taking ques from the 5 design?
I think a return the squared 4/5 style in a more polished design with the glass completely flush would be a massive hit but I just really loved that design the best over the curved sides/glass. The 5's glass still wasn't completely flush I was disappointed in that and I think the biggest flaw with the 4's was just that. The glass wasnt flush with the frame. I don't see why larger phones couldn't be designed with the flat edges with flush glass. I think it would be less prone to breaking too. The 6 and on design is too prone to breaking with the smaller frame and glass sticking out on all sides now.
Id be happy to see a return to that design

See the Oneplus X. It took the iPhone 4/5 design and made it better in every way. Bigger screen, less sharp edges.

Now imagine Apple taking that and adding a bezelless display. I would love to see that.

That said I am not sure if I like the idea of that design for an iPad. Surface Pro is a lot like that and it does not feel as comfortable to hold as the current iPad.

I had one of these. Probably the best phone ever designed. Spot on proportions, spot on weight. The ridged metal band and the slightly curved glass made it surprisingly comfortable to hold. If you replaced the logo with Apple and put an edge to edge screen, it could easily pass for the new SE
 
I think enough using curved design time to change back Square edge to edge with Oled display 6.5 =. Now big things

I got one for my girlfriend when the phone was released and she still uses it and it runs fine, just on a rather old Android version. Should put a custom ROM on it. The iPhone X is not far off in terms of size so that's what I'm planning to get for my next phone.
 
Highly doubtful. The notch is not going to be leaving anytime soon, until that technology is completely refined where the components can be reduced, the notch will be here I would be willing to believe at least for the next few years or so at minimum.

I agree. Time will tell until they can refine that tech and make the components reduced under the screen to make it more seamless.
 
I think we've reached some sort of pinnacle and Apple needs to start working on other features. I can see bezels getting slightly thinner, maybe figure out some technology to get rid of the notch finally. But besides that it should just be gravy here on out, work on stuff like battery life, pencil support, etc. The next big redesign will most likely be a foldable screen.
