Digital artist Martin Hajek has been producing gorgeous renders of Apple products for years now, and over the past few days he’s been on a tour de force. He started with an entirely new concept, the iPhone Pro, complete with a Pencil and the Smart Connector. Next, he tackled rumours that the MacBook Pro would replace its keyboard’s function row with an OLED touch display. He finished up with something simpler but still beautiful; the rumoured deep blue iPhone 7. Take a look!
iPhone Pro with Pencil
The first render offers a look at a future ‘iPhone Pro’, where Pro is taken to mean ‘with a stylus’ and ‘with a smart connector.’ These functional accessories allow for better professional use, whether by scribbling notes, making sketches or just keeping your iPhone alive all day and all night.
The dual rear camera thought to be coming to the iPhone 7 Plus also makes an appearance here. It would also make sense that we’d see a case with built-in Apple Pencil storage, although like the iPad Pro this might be left to third party case makers rather than debut as an official Apple accessory.

MacBook Pro with OLED bar
Next up is the interesting idea of the OLED touch bar, which recent rumours have suggested will make an appearance on a refreshed version of the MacBook Pro. This bar replaces the function key row at the top of the current MacBook keyboard, with context-sensitive buttons and live information.
The concept suggests what we might see on this bar — stats like the current time, user and date, controls and status info from apps like Spotify or Transmission, and a colourful waveform for Siri.

iPhone 7 in Deep Blue
Finally we have some rather simpler but no less exciting renders of a deep blue iPhone. Both the presumptive iPhone 7 and 7 Plus are shown, with the smart connector and dual rear camera showing up on the larger device. The deep blue colour is compared to the space grey model in several photos, and it does look quite gorgeous. It’s not exactly the most compelling rumour, but I certainly wouldn’t mind owning an iPhone that looked like this!
