Apple to Launch iPhone with Hole in Display in 2020

[The AchieVer]

The 2018 iPhone generation landed on the market only a few months ago, but Apple is already planning in advance, and according to one leakster, some pretty big changes are prepared for 2020.

Twitter user Ice Universe, who has until now provided several accurate scoops on unreleased mobile products, says that Apple may launch an iPhone with a hole in its display in 2020, technically embracing the same solution that others are working on right now, including rival Samsung.

Apple adopting this design idea is both good news and bad news.

First of all, it shows that sooner or later, Apple may give up on the notch and focus on features that are more important for users. For instance, drilling holes in the display would basically kill off the notch because the front-facing parts, like the 3D sensing cameras, can just be embedded into the glass.

Additionally, it also allows for other technology to make its way to the iPhone, like the Touch ID fingerprint sensor, and it helps the company improve the available screen estate without design gimmicks like a notch.One more notched iPhoneOn the other hand, Apple doing this next year means we’ll have to stick with a notch for at least one more generation. The cited source claims there’s a good chance Apple would launch the 2019 iPhone with a notch, though some upgrades are prepared this time too, including a possible return of Touch ID.

The notch has become a love it or hate it kind of thing, and it has actually generated mixed reactions from customers across the world. However, it has also evolved to be a trend that others are embracing too, including brands like Huawei and Motorola.

For now, it’s still recommended to receive these rumors with a healthy dose of skepticism, especially because anything can change overnight if Apple wants it. The 2020 iPhone is likely still on the drawing board, so it could take a while until the first accurate leaks make the rounds.
