New iPhone 8 concept surfaces, looks really sleek

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?

What do you think of iPhone’s new look? Pretty sleek, eh? Below are more photos for your browsing pleasure!
