New iPhone 8 concept surfaces, looks really sleek

Listen to article

Not everyone liked the design and build of the current iPhone 6 handsets. Not to mention all the hubbub about its bendable form factor previously. Fast forward to this week, a graphic designer posts on Behance his vision for the iPhone 8 and it exudes elegance and beauty at the same time.

The concept image shows a unibody design with glass as the key element for the handset. The front, back, top, and bottom are all reinforced with said glass, with aluminum strips flanking the screen. The artist also made some variations for the models like a glossy finish in black and white, as well as matte finish – while still staying within Apple’s design scheme for its button placements, toggle switch, etc.

The fact that this is an iPhone 8 concept, skipping iPhone 7, could simply mean that the maker thinks this render still isn’t possible to come into production until about the time iPhone 8 comes out (most likely due to materials used and the like). With this fresh look, maybe Apple could take a hint in designing their upcoming phones?

Graphic designer is different with an industrial designer. The one posted it is an industrial designer.

Why is this news? Eh Apple eh. The fact na there’s already a concept design eh iPhone 6 pa lang ang meron, news talaga yan. May concept design ka bang nababasa about Samsung, Sony or any other phones aside from iPhone? And mind you just in case you didn’t know, Apple is now worth more than the entire Russia’s stock market.
