Rumour: iPhone with edge-to-edge display and built-in Touch ID sensor, 2017

iPhone with edge-to-edge display in 2017. Perhaps the most "optimistic" rumor of the last few months!

It's that time of the year when rumors start to swirl about the appearance and features of the upcoming iPhone. The truth is that so far, at least in terms of appearance, the rumors have probably let us down. There are more than a few who believe that the inspiration of Apple's designers has dried up, which of course implies by "accepting" the rumors and blueprints that have "leaked" so far.

But here's the freshest "rumour" that shows that there is a chance that we might actually see something innovative and especially beautiful in the design of the iPhone 7s or iPhone 8, from Apple, in 2017. Of course, if this rumor is true, then we probably have to accept that this year, the iPhone 7 will not offer anything all that exciting, at least in terms of design. There's no way Apple is going to make major changes for two years in a row. But let's focus on the positives of the news/rumor.

In the latest podcast of The Talk Show, it was mentioned that the iPhone that will be released in 2017 will have an edge-to-edge display. Also, the fingerprint reader is expected to be integrated into the device's display.

According to the same sources, the front FaceTime camera is also expected to be integrated into the screen.

The fate of the Home button is unclear. That is, whether we will have a corresponding "integration" here as well, or whether the time has come to "say goodbye" to it.

In any case, almost accepting now that the upcoming iPhone 7 will not offer us something great in terms of design, the model to be released in 2017 is increasingly starting to gather impressive features. If this particular rumor is true and the addition of the OLED display as well, we might as well be talking about the most "revolutionary" iPhone since the launch of the iPhone.

"Better", we won't be tempted to buy a new iPhone again this year and we'll save a bit of money. Unless Apple manages to surprise us again next September. I'm cutting it pale...
