Notwithstanding, the most recent leak displays the model bearing a stainless steel and glass design, and also wearing an edge-to-edge display with no bezels.

The Volume and mute buttons can be seen on the left-hand side, while the power switch and the SIM tray are visible to one side. The only prominent distinction is that the power switch looks somewhat longer than past versions. Geskin also revealed later that the upcoming gadget will be 7.1 millimeters thick and will wear similar dimensions from the iPhone 7. The mobile phone will apparently wear a Space Black finish. The truth of the spilled images is discreet and these renders could most likely be one of the models or prototypes that Apple considered while manufacturing the forthcoming mobile phone.
