The iPhone you have right now, and are possibly reading this story on, is already a glorified glass slab — albeit one wrapped in a metal frame. But what if your entire iPhone was made at glass? It's something Apple has suggested in the past, and this new patent may give us an idea of what it could look like.
According to the patent this wouldn't be a phone that's glass, glass and nothing but glass. That would be ridiculous, and honestly far from feasible at any point in the foreseeable future. Instead this patent seems to be exploiting some design trickery to make it look like it's an all-glass phone — even if the insides are unchanged.
