A new report claims that all upcoming iPhone 12 models would not feature the 2.5D display approach. The 2020 iPad Pro design reportedly inspired this rumored design change on all the models of the company's upcoming flagship iPhone series. The industry anticipates that Apple would launch the iPhone 12 in September 2020.
Latest iPhone 12 Update
Industry insider Apple Lab recently shared a piece of new but bizarre news about the iPhone 12. On its official Twitter account, the tipster shared that the front side of all the models of the iPhone 12 is not going to be a 2.5D. This contrasts with the company's rivals that are currently utilizing the 2.5D display, making it a norm among high-end flagship offerings.
Several smartphone makers are reportedly developing curvier front glass on their upcoming devices. According to some reports, there is a chance that consumers might soon see smartphones with side buttons shortly. What does the new information about the iPhone 12 models mean?
Apparently, this could mean that all iPhone 12 models would arrive with flatter edges that would make them look like Apple's premium tablet. Additionally, this could mean Apple is sticking to flat front glass design. Based on the new claim, it looks like the company is taking a path different from its competitor in terms of flatter front glass display.
With flatter front glass display on iPhone 12 models, users could easily grip the handset. It would be much easier to carry and hold an iPhone 12 with a flat glass all the way to its corners. Apart from these, applying a screen protector on these upcoming flagship models would be so easy and fast.
Very strange news, but all iPhone 12 will 100% get straight glass, not 2.5D • Concept: Apple iPhone 12 Pro

Other iPhone 12 Details
The new claim about the flat glass design of the iPhone 12, contrasts earlier prediction from reputable TFI Securities Analyst and Apple tipster Ming-Chi Kuo. According to the Taiwan-based analyst, the iPhone 12 would return the slab-sided design consumers see in the iPhone 11 series and would resemble the iPhone 4 a lot. Kuo believes that this would be a part of a crucial chassis redesign Apple did to the iPhone 12.
In other words, unlike the leak, Kuo thinks that the iPhone 12 would feature curved glass edges on the display. Kuo had made several references to the 2 or 2.5D glass display when he was talking about the iPhone 12 models in his notes. Several industry insiders and analysts have contrasting information about the iPhone 12. But, it is important to take note that this is not official.
