The iPhone of 2017 is not going to leave anyone indifferent, for obvious reasons, and it is that it is postulated as a somewhat special edition if we take into account that the tenth anniversary is celebrated since the iPhone, the smartphone arrived on our shelves reference for Apple users. In short, one of the main rumors about this new device is precisely the fact that it can include a curved screen, something like what Samsung presents in the Galaxy Edge on duty. Analysts have come to the fore to deny this information and tell us what the screen of the next iPhone will be like.
Today, our iPhone from 6 onwards have a 2.5D panel, Those of us who used tempered glass protectors know well and that this protection is extremely complicated with the arrival of this type of glass. The big difference is that at the edges, the glass is slightly reduced, forming a tiny curve that makes the device more pleasant to the touch, but that exposes the screen much more.
This is the intermediate step between a flat panel (like the one on the iPhone 5s) and a 3D panel (like the one on the Galaxy Edge). Nevertheless, we will have to quickly forget about the "curved" panels for the iPhone of 2017, at least that's what it tells us Nikkei AsiaAs according to IHS analyst Markit Wayne, what the iPhone of 2017 will have is a slightly more curved 2D panel, but not a 3D panel like the one that Samsung presents in its Edge models.
It is not the first analysis that leaves rumors in the same sense, KGI's Ming-Chi Kuo has already commented that the 2017 iPhone would have the same 2.5D panel that we have right now on the iPhone 6, 6s and 7.
