The upcoming iPhonefor the 20th anniversary promises to mark a turning point in Apple's history. The company plans to eliminate physical buttons entirely and replace them with a system of integrated haptic controls in the frame.
The project, leaked by the Instant Digital account, would be part of the internal development known as Project Bongo. The idea isn't new: Apple had tried to implement it in the iPhone 15, but the technology didn't pass the initial tests and was postponed.
Un iPhone especial para celebrar 20 años
The definitive farewell to physical buttons
According to the leaks, the iPhone 20 will feature haptic buttons that simulate the sensation of a real click through vibration, without the need for moving parts. This system would offer more precise feedback, greater resistance to wear, and better protection against water and dust.
Apple has already applied this principle in the Force Touch Trackpad of its MacBook and in the iPhone 7 Home button. Now, the leap would be complete: all buttons, including volume and power, would disappear from the device's physical design.
A pure glass design and futuristic aesthetics
Sources indicate that the 20th anniversary iPhone will be made entirely of glass, with hidden metallic edges and a continuous structure. This concept aims to reinforce Apple's minimalist philosophy, eliminating any visible element that interrupts the phone's aesthetics.

The result would be a device with clean lines, without interruptions or joints, combining design, technology, and durability in a single piece. In addition, this evolution is expected to improve the tactile sensation and the user's immersive interaction with the screen.
A silent revolution on the way
Rumors indicate that Apple has already completed the verification phase of the new haptic system, suggesting that the project is progressing successfully. If confirmed, the iPhone 20 would mark the definitive farewell to traditional buttons and usher in a new era in smartphone design.
