Apple tipped to release three new iPhones in September
Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo predicts new 6.5-inch, 5.8-inch and 6.1-inch models – all with full-screen design and front 3D-sensing cameras like those of iPhone X
With iPhone-related rumours pouring in, we recently learned that Apple could be gearing up to release three iPhones in September.
Looking at Apple’s previous release trends, all signs are pointing to a September release, despite the latest iPhone X going against the established pattern by being released in November.
At present, it is unclear if we will be seeing all-new models or “S” reworks, which have come between model cycles.
KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo – who has correctly predicted Apple’s moves in the past – predicted in a note that three new iPhone models will be released in September.
Kuo’s note said there will be “6.5-inch and 5.8-inch OLED [organic light-emitting diode] models and a 6.1-inch TFT-LCD [thin-film-transistor liquid-crystal display] model, all equipped with a full-screen design and TrueDepth Camera (front 3D-sensing), as with [the] iPhone X”.
His prediction suggested the potential full elimination of the “home” button and a prevailing edge-to-edge screen design, while the use of advanced OLED [organic light-emitting diode] screens could mean a greater visual experience to go along with the cosmetic changes.
Stay tuned for more information as the release of Apple’s next generation of iPhones nears.
