Rumors on how the iPhone 7 would be like continue to pile up as several outlets claim how the new Apple flagship device would not only be futuristic in looks but also in performance.

Loudest news right now reveals how the Cupertino-based company is working on making the iPhone 7 bezel-free thanks to the rumored sapphire display.

According to Value Walk, the said concept design for the new Apple smartphone would feature a display that would cover the entire face of the device, including the Home Button.

And, while there had been rumors that Apple would be ditching the only physical button in its succeeding iPhones, the new concept art from DeepMind proves otherwise.

See for yourself.

While the company has already acquired a patent for a "glass wraparound design" from the U.S. Patent and Trademarks Office (USPTO), Cult of Mac believes that this does not necessarily translate to a full screen iPhone-at least not yet.

Another interesting rumor about the new iPhone 7 is that it would reportedly run on a new OS: the iOS 10.

Based on the Value Walk report, rumors say that Apple would be unveiling a new operating system for iPhones and iPads at the WWDC in June 2016.

Those at DeepMind have incorporated this into their design which "takes advantage" of what they imagine the iOS 10 would be like.

"The display covers the entire front panel, including the physical Home button. The imagined iOS 10 takes full advantage of the bezel-free display. You can zoom in on a photo to fill up the entire screen. When you unlock the phone, the OS shrinks miraculously to create black bezels around it," Value Walk describes the concept design.

The outlet also revealed the other rumored specs of the iPhone 7 such as an A10 processor under the hood and an extremely slim frame pegged at 6mm to 6.5mm thick.

There had also been rumors that the new flagship device from Apple would be available in three versions with different sizes: 5.5-inch, 4.7-inch and 4-inch.

Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo of the KGI Securities provided information on the iPhone 7's smallest variant is most probably designed so to accommodate those who wish to have the latest iPhone model but has low budgets, per a previous report from Value Walk.

He also revealed that the device is already in the works and that Apple may ship 20 million to 30 units of this variant alone.

He also revealed that the rest of the iPhone 7 line would be going into production sometime during the third quarter of 2016.
