iOS 26’s Liquid Glass Design is Precursor to 20th-Anniversary iPhone With Curved Glass Edges
iOS 26’s shimmery new Liquid Glass design will be a precursor to the 20th-anniversary iPhone, according to Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman.
In his Power On newsletter today, Gurman said that the 20th-anniversary iPhone will feature curved glass edges, extraordinarily slim bezels, and a truly edge-to-edge screen with no cutout. Inside Apple, he said that the device is known as the “Glasswing,” in reference to a type of butterfly that has transparent wings.
The new iOS design will pair nicely with the simplistic, all-glass 20th-anniversary iPhone, which is expected to launch in September 2027.
The new Liquid Glass design will be unveiled during Apple’s WWDC 2025 keynote this Monday.
