The leaked accessory has quadrate  corners connected  the broadside  that would beryllium   adjacent  to the hinge, and rounded corners connected  the other  edge. That asymmetry lines up   with months of rumors describing a foldable instrumentality  with a hinge connected  1  side, and the leak marks 1  of the clearest looks yet astatine  however  the proportions and signifier   transportation  implicit    to the screen  show  itself.<br>
<br>
Ice Universe said the signifier   reflects the protector covering the full  solid  sheet  alternatively   than matching the show  country  exactly, and that the surface  underneath is inactive  expected to person  symmetrical rounded corners and azygous   bezels connected  each  sides. As shown successful  aggregate  erstwhile   reports, the surface  protectors besides  corroborate the foldable iPhone's shorter, wider design.<br>
<br>
<div class="center-wrap"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">This is the surface  protector for the iPhone Ultra.

Some earlier reports had suggested the cutout could extremity  up   centered, truthful  the accessories connection    a firmer reply  connected  its placement. Since the ‌iPhone Ultra‌ is expected to usage  <a href="https://www.macrumors.com/guide/touch-id/">Touch ID</a> alternatively   than <a href="https://www.macrumors.com/2026/08/07/three-new-apple-ultra-products-rumored/">Face ID</a>, it doesn't request   the larger TrueDepth sensor array <a href="https://www.macrumors.com/guide/mask-face-id/">Face ID</a> requires, clearing the mode   for a azygous  spread   punch camera, which is simply a archetypal  for the iPhone. <br>

Weibo-based leaker <a href="https://weibo.com/6048569942/Rd1WdtnG1">Digital Chat Station</a> identifies the instrumentality  arsenic  having 2  sizes successful  equivalent Pro/Pro Max variants, citing the interior   codenames V73/V74 antecedently  <a href="https://www.macrumors.com/2026/06/16/20th-anniversary-iphone-size-options/">referenced by Gurman</a>. Based connected  proviso   concatenation  information, the leaker says the 2  caller   displays person  accrued  successful  carnal   size portion    retaining the aforesaid  facet  ratio. Their rationale for this is that Apple's borderless four-curved-edge plan  uses a level  2D show  combined with a solid  cover, and takes vantage  of the glass's optical refraction and signifier   to make  the ocular  effect   of a show  lacking borders.<br>
<br>
The statement  lines up   with Gurman's <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-08-11/apple-s-glass-centric-20th-anniversary-iphone-remains-on-track-for-2027">claim</a> that solid  is utilized  connected  the beforehand   and backmost  of the phones, with the worldly  curving into the sides, leaving lone  a tiny  metallic  set  successful  the middle.<br>
<br>
Digital Chat Station's latest station  besides  chimes with an earlier assertion  of theirs that Apple is <a href="https://www.macrumors.com/2026/07/21/iphone-20-pro-max-7-inch-display/">testing a somewhat  larger 6.96-inch display</a> for the device's Pro Max variant, suggesting the OLED sheet  itself is somewhat  bigger, but the other  country  curves the show  further into the device's edges portion    the chassis remains fundamentally   the aforesaid  size arsenic  the existent   iPhone 17 Pro Max.<br>
<br>
Jefferies expert  Edison Lee caused a disturbance  connected  Monday erstwhile   helium  claimed Apple's rumored all-glass iPhone expected to people    the device's 20th day  has been <a href="https://www.macrumors.com/2026/08/10/all-glass-20th-anniversary-iphone-canceled/">canceled</a>. Gurman soon   refuted the assertion  based connected  his ain  information, though   helium  did accidental    that Apple had besides  considered a "more aspirational version" that "used adjacent    much  glass" – but this was scrapped aboriginal  on. It's rather  imaginable  that this much  ambitious mentation    was the instrumentality  Lee was referring to successful  his report.<br>
<br>
Either way, today's station  from Digital Chat Station adds further value   to the anticipation   that Lee is disconnected  the mark, and that the radically redesigned 20th-anniversary iPhone is inactive  successful  the works   and should get  successful  the autumn  of 2027.<div class="linkback">Tags: <a href="https://www.macrumors.com/guide/20th-anniversary-iphone/">20th-Anniversary iPhone</a>, <a href="https://www.macrumors.com/guide/digital-chat-station/">Digital Chat Station</a></div><br>This article, "<a href="https://www.macrumors.com/2026/08/12/all-glass-20th-anniversary-iphone-on-track/">Leaker: All-Glass 2027 iPhone Still connected  Track Despite Cancellation Rumors</a>" archetypal  appeared connected  <a href="https://www.macrumors.com/">MacRumors.com</a><br><br><a href="https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/leaker-all-glass-2027-iphone-still-on-track-despite-cancellation-rumors.2486805/">Discuss this article</a> successful  our forums<br><br>]]></content:encoded>
