This year is a litmus test for Apple. His most popular device, the iPhone, It has been ten years since it was introduced by Steve Jobs in 2007. Ten years in which, it has evolved a lot and has been a differentiating element in the lives of many people, acquiring with the latest model, the iPhone 7, a maturity and consolidation as a device that we have never seen before.
However, this maturity is also accompanied by the third consecutive year in which the changes we see in terms of design are too light and the additions, in general, have not left many people with their mouths open. Removing the relocation of antenna bands and the new colors in matt and gloss black, The iPhone 7 does not bring with it anything 'groundbreaking' that represents a transcendental change from previous models (with the honorable exception, perhaps, of the double camera of the Plus model and the water resistance).
That is why many of us hope that in this 2017, the year of the tenth anniversary, Apple once again demonstrates its capacity for innovation and leadership to the world in an industry where the thousands of similar mobile devices are becoming difficult to distinguish from one another. In addition, with the looming shadow of the Samsung Galaxy S8 that, according to the leaks, aims high, those in Cupertino cannot let another year go by with low-key updates.
In this concept, carried out by ConceptsiPhone, we are presented with an iPhone 8 with screen dimensions slightly higher than those of the Plus model, thanks to the fact that the frames of it have been eliminated and some curves have been introduced on the sides, similar to those found in the Samsung Galaxy Edge, but not so pronounced. In addition, the body would be made of ceramic - one of the materials in which the new version of Apple Watch is found - and its general lines would be more angular than the current models, reminiscent of the iPhone 5-5s-5SE.
What does attract our attention, the upper and lower frames retain their current proportions, since they are expected to be thinner, as well as the presence of the start button, since this could be the first iPhone to integrate this sensor directly on the screen. There is still much to know what the new iPhone will be like, but it is time to start placing our bets.
