When the iPhone 7 was released in September 2016, Apple unveiled the new “jet black” version. While this may seem very elegant at first glance, it actually quickly turned out to be problematic. And for good reason: on the back of the phones which are equipped with it, there arefingerprintsparticularly showy. Nothing exceptional or truly embarrassing, certainly, but far from meeting the demanding quality criteria of the Apple brand.

But according to a recent tweet from Internet user @laobaiTD, Apple actually tried to reproduce the same design a few months later. More precisely, it is theiPhone Xwho almost got it.

The only downside: the mobile, which is still several years old, risks becoming obsolete.A sensitive subject on which Toyota also finds fault.
Secrets that are hard to keep
For its part, it is very likely that Apple did not really appreciate such a prototype leaving its premises to end up relayed in the media. We do not know from what origin theleak, but it is very likely that it is once again an employee of the American company who is playing with the law. However, we recently learned that this type of behavior can be very costly:we are talking here about ending up in court.
