Apple is a company that has accustomed us to innovative ideas and pioneering devices. Now, it is patenting a design for an iPhone made entirely of glass. Of course, there is no official indication yet of when this device might be released, but it could be announced at one of the company's future presentations.

As you might imagine, this device has the clear advantage of making full use of its body, as its entire enclosure would serve as a screen. The patent was granted by the US Patent Office under the name “Electronic device with glass enclosure” and describes an electronic device capable of displaying images and content across six different viewing areas on a single glass surface.

In its patent filing, the company included information on how the device could be opened for repairs, while its overall design almost certainly points to an iPhone.

Content would be displayed not only on the front but also on the back, thanks to the device's unique features and design. Of course, this design concept is certainly original, but in practice, it would likely make the device heavier than conventional iPhone models due to the extensive use of glass.
