This iPhone XI concept has been designed by Philip Goolkasian as a glimpse of what we could expect with the next-generation device that will be unveiled later this fall. The smartphone follows the design ethos of the technology brand, but works to bring an enhanced sense of symmetry that makes it look and feel more balanced in the hand and when not in use.
The next-generation smartphone from Apple is expected to feature a triple-lens camera system, so this concept incorporates it along with other essential sensors on the rear across the entire top section. This eliminates all the components from being on one side to let the device sit balanced on a flat surface, which Apple design fans would appreciate.
The iPhone XI concept also features the San Francisco Fog finish, which replaces the need for a shiny glass back with a sandblasted glass rear that complements the aluminum build and hides fingerprints/blemishes.
