Check out this iPhone 7 concept created by Martin Hajek for Computer Bild.

The iPhone features a large display covering nearly the entire front of the device and a Home button with Touch ID that is integrated into the display.

The smartphone has an optional illuminated logo and a dual-lens camera, inspired by Apple's recent acquisition of LinX.

Why iPhone 7? Isn't it iPhone 6S?

Nice Appearer

The antenna bands make it uglier than the display itself.

Breix - May 10, 2015 at 2:56am

Hmm.. Whatever the design or whatever concept.. Isn't it time high class graphic chips be put into this phones? No??

A glowing apple logo is a waste of battery

loltw - May 9, 2015 at 1:05pm

Yep, unless they put an option to turn it off or on.

gamerscul9870 - May 9, 2015 at 3:09pm

Agreed!!!

looks like a copy of a Samsung G

Why can't the home button be on the back where the logo is. The logo built into it. And the earspeaker hole in back also. Then the front could be all screen with no problem.

I've been said I phones should have a touch home button instead of pressing it and it gets stuck or messed up some kind of way.

They already have if you've jailbroken and have a device with TouchID. There is a tweak and you can also make your own actions with Activator so you don't have to press the Home button practically ever, just touch.

They own BEATS and can't put front facing speakers

gamerscul9870 - May 8, 2015 at 8:13pm

Who said the iPhone 7 wasn't?

Breix - May 8, 2015 at 2:17pm

Personally I like the design of it.. But it would be great if the home button is actually gone now.. By the way samsung also has this "home button" thing.. Anyway.. It should be no more home button.. Or the home button could be the power button also?? You'll never known the different types of combination that would bring..

faupelz - May 8, 2015 at 11:22am

The home button is obsolete, as well as the front glass ear speaker hole. Personally I find the current iPhone iteration not very attractive, or its physical interface practical. The above rendition is just more of the same...

Jackson Browne - May 8, 2015 at 12:01pm

I agree. Apple clearly has no idea what they are doing. Nobody would buy a phone with a home button. Sheeeesh!

gamerscul9870 - May 8, 2015 at 1:49pm

You got to be joking. My home button still works and I am using the 5s since the release of it without a single replacement! Sheessssshhhh!!!

80 million people seen to disagree with you.

gamerscul9870 - May 8, 2015 at 10:42am

I don't see what the hell this point it. Imagine apps that try to blind in with the button, or any app you're using. I would rather take more lte bands.

stevenlacross - May 8, 2015 at 2:50pm

More LTE bands? It's already got pretty much all of them. Tell your carrier to put up more lte towers

Butterspider - May 8, 2015 at 10:00am

Just put the home button on the back or side and be done with it. Jeez!

Donell - May 8, 2015 at 9:00am

I don't think apple would put a button that is always in the way. That's why they never put a plastic keyboard on the iPhones, so that the screen could display what it needed when it wanted. This is a nice graphic, yes. But I don't predict that would be integrated into apple products. They could simply make a force touch area for the home button and not have to worry about cutting into a display. Though that would remove touchID Interaction. So... Yeah I don't think any of that will happen any time soon.

Darryn - May 8, 2015 at 8:59am

No thanks...

Forrest - May 8, 2015 at 8:10am

Even when it's off u still can see the home button, it's like a backward hump in screen glass which will interfere with the viewing contents like images, videos, it'll give it some distortion. I don't think that the iPhone 7 will be much of difference than the iPhone 6, it'll look the same with upgraded hardware, maybe thiner or maybe it'll get a force touch sensor and maybe a better security, infra red camera to capture the depth of field, face recognition and so on, I believe they'll focus now on the apple watch, so the next 3 gen of the iPhone will look like the iPhone 6, with different colors.

stevenlacross - May 8, 2015 at 2:48pm

Well yes then next iPhone that comes out will be the 6s and 6s plus, but after that. Apple has always changed the design every other model. 3G 3GS then the 4 and the 4s then the 5 and 5s, they aren't going to change from that. So it'll be the 6s and 6s plus. And then the 7 will come out after that and this is what this guy is predicting it might look like. But Apple won't make something that looks this good. Nope they won't. :(

kapnkirk24 - May 8, 2015 at 8:10am

Best concept yet

Clement - May 8, 2015 at 7:37am

This is one of the most realistic concept that I have seen thus far. Apple, please pay attention.
