A hardware technician has proposed a modification of the iPhone 14 Pro Max to add a screen that curves at the edges like a Samsung Galaxy device.
twitter user @lipilipsi, a self-proclaimed iPhone hardware technician who specializes in aftermarket Apple device modifications, showcased his latest project with several images and a brief video. The modification involves replacing the stainless steel frame of the iPhone and adding a new screen, but all other components of the device remain the same.
The curved screen is particularly reminiscent of Samsung Galaxy smartphones, which have had curved screens on the left and right horizontal side edges since the launch of the Galaxy Note Edge in 2014.
@lipilipsi undertook several other inventive iPhone modifications, including add a back screen using an Apple Watchchange an iPhone 13 Lightning to USB-C portand move an entire device to a transparent case to see the internal components.
