\t\"iPhone<\/p>\n

Rumors indicate Apple is planning something special<\/a> for its 20th anniversary iPhone model, the \u2018iPhone 20.\u2019 We\u2019re expecting an all-glass display with no cutout, and the latest leak says the new model could drop every physical button in favor of solid-state buttons with haptic feedback.<\/p>\n

Solid-state buttons might finally be coming to iPhone<\/p>\n

Leaker Instant Digital writes on Weibo<\/a> [translation]:<\/p>\n

The solid-state button scheme of Apple iPhone has completed the functional verification and is planned to be mass-produced and applied on the iPhone 20 in 2027. At that time, the power button, volume button, operation button and camera control button will be upgraded to solid-state buttons with local vibration feedback!<\/p>\n

This is far from the first time that Apple has been predicted to replace physical iPhone buttons with solid-state options.<\/p>\n

We were last expecting<\/a> the switch to happen with iPhone 16 Pro, for example. That didn\u2019t pan out.<\/p>\n

However, if the company was ever going to actually ship the change, the new \u2018iPhone 20\u2019 model seems a great candidate.<\/p>\n

Similar to the iPhone X that marked the iPhone\u2019s 10th anniversary, we\u2019re expecting an especially unique new iPhone 20 in 2027.<\/p>\n

Rumors indicate<\/a> it could have an all-glass, wrap-around display with no cutouts. But since we\u2019re still a couple years out, it\u2019s highly possible for the final details to change before launch.<\/p>\n

If Apple does replace all physical buttons in the device with haptic feedback, it could be related to the rumored wrap-around display. So I\u2019m giving this leak a little more weight than I normally might for a two-year-out model.<\/p>\n

How would you feel about Apple replacing the iPhone 20\u2019s physical buttons with solid-state haptics? Let us know in the comments.<\/p>\n
