  "account": "Apple's long-rumored all-glass iPhone, marking the 20th anniversary of the original device, is reportedly still in the works for a 2027 release, according to Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman. Despite a recent analyst report suggesting Apple had abandoned the design, Gurman's source claims the device remains on track. The new model will feature glass on both the front and back of the phone, with a curved metal band in the middle, replacing a previous design that encountered production issues. While the earlier concept faced challenges with glass panel assembly, the latest design aims to overcome those obstacles and become a premium product positioned alongside the iPhone Pro. The all-glass iPhone is expected to be a high-end device, potentially priced at around $2,060, as production costs for hardware continue to rise due to RAMageddon. Additionally, Apple may introduce its first foldable phone this year, further expanding its mobile product lineup.",
