Practically since the beginning of this year, there have been various speculations related to the new generation of portable computers from Apple.

Better displays for future iPhones
Apple, for understandable reasons, constantly tries to improve the new models of its iPhones. The latest patent suggests that the Cupertino company is working on front glasses for its iPhones and iPads, which should be noticeably thinner and more durable than previous models. As the curved display trend spreads, manufacturers of these components have to face new challenges and try new technologies. Among other things, curved glasses are characterized by being relatively thick in certain areas, which can sometimes be undesirable for various reasons. Apple has recently patented a technology that should make it possible to achieve a uniform thickness even with a curved display - you can see a drawing of the construction in the photo gallery below. The patent dates from January last year and is signed by David Pakula, Stephen Brian Lynch, Richard Hung Minh Dinh, Tang Yew Tan, and Lee Hua Tan.
