We’re around seven months away from the first glimpse of iOS 10 and almost one year from the launch of the iPhone 7, but since when has that been enough to stop forward-looking Apple fans?
With that in mind, designers at DeepMind (not the AI company Google acquired last year) have put together a nifty concept video showing a next-gen Apple handset, running a future version of iOS, optimized for a bezel-less iPhone.
Check it out below.
Personally, I think it’s pretty darn sweet — although I’d like to see Apple get rid of the home button, too.
Can I see the company going quite this extreme with the iPhone 7? Despite the fact that the patents are all there, I’m not sure we’re necessarily going to get a fullscreen iPhone just yet, but we know that it’s something Apple’s definitely shown some interest in working on.
Would you buy this as the next big iPhone refresh? Leave your comments below.

Concepts never happen.
Unless they came directly from Apple Inc.
Fun. Looks like they were inspired by the 4s – which was easily the apex of iPhone design.
Nope not getting this phone, i’m getting the s7.
Completely agree on the 4 and 4s….the most beautiful iPhone made….would love an iPhone 7 built from the iPhone 4 design….I sold my 4 recently on eBay and it felt still like an advanced design with amazing quality
I think it was too thick just quietly. But we can only wait and see. I too loved the glass back and front of the iPhone 4/4s, it was also really nice to hold.
will buy it
