Reports are suggesting the Apple iPhone 5 or possibly the iPhone 6 will get the curved glass feature as the iPod nano shown in the picture above, the question is “Will this be a very expensive option if added to the future iOS smartphone?”
DigiTimes has reported that Apple may possibly look into the curved glass screens for future iPhones, the iPod Nanos as said above have this glass already but the screens are very small whereas the iPhone versions will be around 4-inches, expensive option but possible.
Apple do have great experience already we know that and if reports are correct that they are investing in 200-300 glass cutting machines then they must be serious in incorporating this technology, Apple has the money to make this investment and if succeeded we could see brand new iPhone designs that would definitely be good for the eyes of the customer.
Aesthetically the new curved glass design would look great but do we really need to sway away from the current flat screen?
Of course this is not officially announced and we will keep a close eye out for this news, in the meantime would you like to see the curved glass feature on the iPhone 5 or the iPhone 6?
The glass cutting machines mentioned above are at the moment being stored at some assembly plants, apparently they will come into use as soon as yield rates for the production for such curved glass has reached a satisfactory level.
As usual the word “Waiting” for official news has arisen again, please do post your comments in the area provided below. We would love to know if you would like a new glass design on the iPhone models mentioned above.
