The iPhone's 10th year anniversary is fast approaching. While Apple has been quiet about its program for 2017, speculations are out that the Cupertino-based tech group will unveil an impressive array of devices soon.
While the iPhone 7 has unveiled a sweeping change that notably includes the ditching of the long-accustomed headphone jack, it has been leaked that a pervasive design is on the way for the succeeding device.
Apple has emphasized an edge-to-edge curved surface with the home button being taken out of the screen equation. In a sense, the approach for the decade celebratory presentation of the iPhone will be more than just revolutionary.
Amidst all the growing anticipation, it has been suggested that Apple will bring out a thinner product that offers imagery sophistication that utilizes less energy. It is highly likely that the next iPhone will have a 5.5-inch frame with an OLED surface. This means that a higher contrast ratio will introduce a more colorful screen display.
According to Apple supplier Catcher Technology, the tech company's item in 2017 will integrate a glass frame into the aluminum or stainless steel case.
Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo shares that the glass body is intended to distinguish the upcoming item from its predecessors.
In addition to the 10-nanometer A11 processor, the potential iPhone 8 will also be equipped with wireless charging capability and biometric features like the iris scanner.
It is probable that Apple's market approach next year will present an elite model together with a couple of complementary devices. The 5.5-inch curved iPhone will stand alongside the 4.7 and 5-inch brands with standard displays. It is likely that one variant will get a privileged status through the OLED feature. This means that the other two will settle with LCD panels.
Considering that the upcoming iPhone item is still under production, unexpected design alterations can still be incorporated into the unit. Moreover, the iPhone 8 is still a project name which means that the brand's official identity is yet to be divulged.
