If you could design your own iPhone 7, without compromises and limitations, it would probably look a little something like this insane concept. It doesn’t just look amazing; it’s also packing out-of-this-world features that make your existing model look like a relic.

Every iPhone concept we see is wildly unrealistic, with designs and specifications that are either years away, or just totally impossible. That’s what makes them so spectacular. But this one really takes the biscuit.

Created by DBS Photography, it depicts an iPhone 7 with a super-sharp 4K display that wraps around both sides of the handset’s slender frame, virtual volume buttons that you can place wherever you want, and sapphire glass.

Inside the device, you’ll find specifications that are more likely to be found in a high-end laptop, including a whopping 6GB of RAM, and up to 512GB of storage. The device also has a gigantic 5,000mAh battery, and a 24-megapixel rear-facing camera with f/1.7 aperture.

Believe or not, we’re likely to see smartphones with specifications similar to these in just a few short years. But I wouldn’t get your hopes up for an iPhone with a wraparound 4K display and a design this sensational if I were you.

Apple’s actual iPhone 7 is expected to look almost identical to its latest offerings, but recent leaks have revealed we could see redesigned antenna bands, an added Smart Connector, and a dual-lens camera on the larger iPhone 7 Plus.

The leaked images and schematics that have surfaced in recent weeks are brought to life in the design video below.
