The smartphone is equipped with a 6.1-inch Retina display that offers edge-to-edge graphics and does away with notches or hole punch-style cameras. The device has a polished aluminum design across the front and sides, and boasts soft curves that call to mind the form of the iPhone. The rear camera showcases a triple-lens array that calls to mind the Samsung [Galaxy S](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/swippitt) series smartphones, which is surrounded by a frosted glass backing. The iPhone x Galaxy smartphone concept is imagined in several color options including White, Frost, Black, Cream and Gold to strike a balance between the real world finishes available.
