The 20th-anniversary iPhone is set to be manufactured using the same glass-making process as the iPhone Air, according to a leaker identified as Fixed Focus Digital. The leaker shared this information on Weibo, stating that the iPhone Air's manufacturing equipment has been adapted to create more rounded glass components for the upcoming anniversary iPhone.
This modification has led to a reduction in Apple's manufacturing costs while simultaneously improving overall heat dissipation and thinness. The leaker's report aligns with previous claims that the facility responsible for iPhone 20 production has undergone renovations, with the expected manufacturing quality comparable to the first-generation iPhone Air.
The iPhone Air, measuring at 5.6mm, boasts a sleek titanium frame and a glass back. This new design insight supports earlier rumors suggesting a curved glass design for Apple's 20th-anniversary iPhone, which would feature a mostly glass construction without any display cutouts. The revamped iPhone models are projected to be launched in the fall of 2027, following the release of the iPhone 18, iPhone 18e, and iPhone Air 2 in the spring.
