The iPhone 8 may not be released for another eight months or so, but it’s already shaping up to be the king of all smartphones. BGR has the news on the new “edgeless” iPhone.

“Despite the fact that Apple’s flagship iPhone lineup continues to be the best-selling smartphone series in the world, fans are anxious for something new — and in 2017, they’ll get the completely overhauled iPhone design they’ve been waiting for.”

The article adds that the iPhone 8 will feature an OLED display without a bezel. Apple will ditch the Home button and embed a new Touch ID fingerprint scanner into the display itself. There have even been renderings of the new iPhone that have appeared on Twitter.

Forbes talks about a new patent Apple has filed that could give us more hints about the touch sensors.

“This patent describes a technique where touch sensors can be placed around any side of a device allowing for new input sources. The patent also notes that physical buttons (such as the volume controls) could be replaced by these embedded touch sensors,” says Forbes contributor Ewan Spence, who summarizes that Apple could drop the current buttons to turn towards touch-enabled areas on the device for the existing UI.
