The iPhone 6s may still be a pretty young device, but that doesn’t mean we’re not looking towards the next iteration of the iPhone, likely to be called the iPhone 7.
There might not be many leaks about the actual iPhone 7 just yet, but what we do have are concept designs from designers and tech geeks all over the world. Here are a few of our favorite concept designs.
iPhone 7 – Top 10 most requested features:
- Professional photography camera quality
- Digital crown for easier controlling
- Enhanced volume controls
- Wireless charging
- Impact resistant display screen (unbreakable)
- Waterproof features
- Dual-View or secondary display
- 48 hour battery capacity
- 4-inch version
- 3D display without having to wear 3D glasses

“I designed an iPhone that I would love to hold in my own hand,” said Farahi in an interview with Cult of Mac. “It’s a phone which keeps the iPhone 6’s rounded, shiny edges, but without the chunky and all-too-visible antenna lines. I also hate the camera protrusion on the iPhone 6, and as a concept designer — not an engineer — think there must be some way of extruding the lens only when the camera app starts.”
Farahi took things to the next level with this design, even describing the technical specifications of the device. Perhaps most interesting is that Farahi envisions a feature that many have been asking for for years now – wireless charging.
According to Farahi, his design would see the iPhone being 6.1mm thick, and would bring RAM to a pretty hefty 5GB.

Not only that, but the display would even go as far as to curve a little around the edges of the front of the device, which could lead to some very interesting functionality.
While the design is certainly fascinating, there are a few things that Apple would never consider doing, such as having the speaker in the display. This would disrupt the user interface, something that seems very un-Apple.

Of course, as with other concepts, the design by Yogarasa also sees the next iPhone being super slim, although this time we don’t know exactly how slim.
