Apple’s 20th-anniversary iPhone may not replace the Pro after all… Could it become a new premium line?

Apple’s 20th-anniversary iPhone is being seen as a potential standalone premium line, rather than a direct successor to the Pro model.

As Apple increasingly splits the iPhone strategy into Pro for performance and Air for design, the 2027 device could become a design-led flagship.

Rumored features include an all-glass design, a larger display, and under-screen Face ID and front camera components.

If true, Apple could further separate the roles of the Pro lineup and special-edition iPhones, reshaping its high-end product structure.
