This [iPhone 13](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/conceptual-iphone-13-smartphone) concept has been designed by PS Design as a rendering of the next-gen smartphone that imagines some distinct features that would work to greatly enhance the user interface and experience.

The smartphone maintains a notch-free design that is paired with an ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint scanner to greatly enhance security. The rear of the device is paired with a [3-inch LTPO display](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lava-agni-3) that is positioned to the right of the triple-camera system to act as a way to preview photos before they're snapped, monitor for incoming notifications and more.

The iPhone 13 concept has the [rear supplemental display](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ulefone-armor-30-pro) as an always-on screen that can be customized to the preferences of the user to further enhance productivity.
