I can’t wait to hold a phone that will inadvertently launch something every time I pick it up. 🥴
I may be surprised but I can't imagine them having active, usable display on the curved edges. Not only would you have the problem you describe but the image is obviously distorted if on a curve. It may be displaying something on those edges, but I don't see any controls there nor do I see things like videos and such using that part of the display. Way too many people would have a problem with that and I'm sure Apple knows that.
And market it as the Magic Mouse inspired charging port... 🤢
I have my doubts they’ll get rid of the notch for a pin hole next year. Much less get rid of said pin hole the following year.
Do you think Apple hasn’t thought about this? A screen that expands to the sides would 100% have measures for this.
What a design, it costs more. But the all-screen concept is breathtaking.
An edge to edge screen means no case and more easily broken if dropped. I think Apple will raise the price of AC+ with a phone as described.
Can't believe it's been 40 years since the introduction of the Mac
I can’t help but think I’ll probably have to use one of those fully transparent phone cases.
Real talk, how expensive would screen repairs become? Would one-day repairs still be a thing, I wonder?
Totally agree they look great!
Indeed! That's why I am skeptical about it
I don’t use cases anymore, so an all screen iPhone is right up my alley.
What's funny to me about rumors like these is that Apple has described the iPhone's design as "all-screen," "edge-to-edge," etc since iPhone X.
Makes me wonder how they'll spin this supposed thing. "All-screen, for real this time!" or something?

I had a Note 20, which had an edge to edge screen and it was impossible to type on it without a thick edged case on it. The edges of my palms would cause unintended keypresses. Edge to edge phones are not fun to type on. Who knows…. Maybe Apple will do it right.
If they don't keep adding things that others cant copy then it wont be special compared to other phones. Such a gimmick. How does this benefit the user? They have the power to put a computer in your pocket, you could dock it to a tablet, laptop, or computer shell and use it as a complete computer as good as a Mac mini. But instead we get pixels that will mostly be covered up by cases. It seems as though they want more people to not use cases because they make so much money off people breaking there screens. Thats not doing things for the consumer thats a sneaky way to get people to replace broken devices. What happened to this company?
Phone with glass corners? Yes, please!
It's not like you ever drop/bump you phone, right?

Don’t forget that Microsoft skipped Windows 9 and went to 10.
