IPhone 8: date, price, features, release date

Once the game before the game: speculation on the next generation iPhone can begin!

Market observers are waiting for 2017-three new iPhone models. One of them, namely the 5 inch model, could get dual camera arranged vertically. Beimaktuellen iPhone 7 plus dual camera lenses are arranged horizontally side by side. The sources do not say if and what techniques could have consequences.

Update December 22:

He called the iPhone - vintage in 2017 could be wireless charged, in the analyst circles for a while. The cooperation, which currently builds Apple according to Louis Basenese market observer with specialists for inductive systems charge Energous enter the image. Thus, the long-time Apple-manager Billy Manning needs to be put into tension at startup, to assist him in the regulatory approval processes for his technologies. A wireless charging system from Energous to be ready for this help until the second half of 2017, which could correspond to the appendix. However, on a collaboration between two companies to close simply because an employee from one to another is changed, seems more daring. Finally, these transitions happen every day and do not mean that old and future employers work together. Basenese leads but also in its analysis according to Apple Insider, that Energous with have agreed Pegatron and a few months ago with Foxconn in March, to get its technology into manufacturers products accumulate. Times make Apple iPhones companies do this work as well as for dozens of other manufacturers and brands. But, the fact that the chip maker has invested $ 10 million in Energous's dialog displays much more exciting. Dialogue provides agreement with the components according to Energous while get Energous access to the distribution channels of the dialog. About 70 percent of the company's deliveries go to Apple.

Basic nose has collected only a few facts and interpreted, a proof of the fact that Apple will use 8 inductive Load Energous technology with the iPhone, is not always as long. It would be good, but in the image, if Apple Wireless download was going its own way and not put already created technologies, such as qi.

Updated December 19:

According to a report from the Korean Korea Herald publication, now all new iPhone models based on the model of the Samsung Galaxy S7 are expected to receive a curved OLED screen next year. Recently there had been speculation that Apple could bring out two others that evolving pursuit in the form of an iPhone 7S and equip only a top-model with the new form factor. Above all, the reason was for Apple, the concern of not having enough display, delaying the introduction of the OLED, or limiting to a high-end model. Especially as Apple back could access only one vendor: Samsung. The Japanese manufacturer LG and sharp would have a sufficient capacity available only in 2018. But agreed that apple with the delivery of 70 million OLED Samsung's poster of the year 2017, which should be sufficient even if the demand for new phones on All dimensions. Good nine months before the established date of September, when Apple introduced the latest new iPhones, are still some speculation. The sounds of the idea but quite realistic given the market expectations on iPhones in a completely new form factors, Apple will go on to 2017 on OLED. The 7th generation could therefore fall and update Apple just on the 8. Perhaps it is not yet decided, but even in Cupertino, Apple would be wisely advised to keep as open many options. So it remains, so can not be ruled out that the year 2017 could bring both iPhone 7s and iPhone 8 despite recent reports.

Update December 8:

Everything remains different, believes the Japanese blog Otakara Mac and unlike speculation that all new iPhones in the year 2017 come with a return glass, which would facilitate inductive load. Apple will therefore deviate from its upgrade plan in parts and thus bring out two models iPhone 7S and iPhone 7, 2016 are differing only on the basis of their newer processors, the current models of the vintage. So with aluminum body and no wireless charging option. Coming soon a new version of color: red. This blog does not reveal, but if it is what, but given by Apple's commitment to the obvious Global Fund would be a product (red). More than a speculation or perhaps even a wish scenario can arise but hardly Mac Otakaras report. Although, the blog had reported good with first of a year ago, Apple will give the iPhone 7 on the 3.5 mm jack, but has also vigorously taken the color options. The deep predicted blue and white Jet never come true. We would find green emerald for our part, but also quite pretty ...

Energy, wireless: Apple would have brought in the fall of 2017 three new iPhones, two models in the best proportions of 4.7 to 5.5 inches

Updated November 3rd:

IPhone with lightning / USB cable and the new Macbook Pro - not so much adjustments together. However, a wireless solution is also coming as unnecessary SD cards made in the case of Wi-Fi modules. The next iPhone 8 will probably rely on inductive load - we describe it below in detail and think it's quite likely, if not the only solution as well. According to Nikkei Asian review, Foxconn is already testing the appropriate modules. The test result will be crucial if Apple makes another cable cut, output and adapt for that loading time. The functionality will probably, subject to the older model.

So much anticipated, Wall Street today worse numbers for the iPhone, than sales less than the previous year would hardly disappoint. To do this, the expectation is very high during the year 2017, Apple will start a new "Super Cycle" with a completely redesigned iPhone. And not only with the nomenclature as so far will continue, the new model will be hot on the occasion of the tenth anniversary of the Apple iPhone 10. The demand for the new device will be immense, Apple almost sitting on a Powder was only progressively iPhones veraltender he described Cowen Timothy Arcuri analyst. The installed base was so large that a new iPhone would bring sales close to explode. In the coming quarters, 43 percent of all iPhone owners use a device that has more than two years and jump on a big update. For the change of nomenclature, there are so far no other indications like Arcuris fantastic, but it should be clear that following Apple leaves no iPhone 7s on the iPhone 7, if it should contain new features Important. The spring of 7 to 10 but it happens, we mock is no more than 10 of Windows, which was followed on Windows 7 and Windows 8 ...

Update of October 7, 2016:

It can still get away: Apple has always shown great championship is to let things off and reduce its product designs to the basics. A remote control also needs no 45 button, so their six do exactly as well. Apple has left, although not far away, home button now the iPhone 7 but it is therefore more mechanical and its function could be perceived anywhere on the screen. There are still a few more candidates on the mute button on the side while the lightning port even retain its permission when loading the actually inductive iPhone 8. Jason Snell saw himself even more buttons, switches and ports in the Apple universe and said what can there still far away.

This also includes the contact ID built into the home button, since Apple has recently been awarded a patent, which allows fingerprint recognition on the entire screen. Why not the iPhone 7, the home button has gone, probably in the end a design decision. Because iPhone users have become accustomed to almost ten years to the one button on the front and were probably irritated when it suddenly missed. But a transition could begin with the design of the iPhone 7, which could reach the next year of the iPhone 8.

Updated September 29, 2016: Components of the upcoming iPhone will be at the Israeli Apple office in Herzliya, an insider there-working with business Insider betrayed. What Look "different" for next year will wait iPhone iPhone 8 6 s, 6 and 7 lights up, the source does not call for specific changes.

Original by September 22, 2016: not every rumor that circulated in the last months on the iPhone 7, proved September 7 to be correct. Mostly the pictures of "Freeze files" of components and attachments were more or less erroneous: most images showed an iPhone 7 thugs in gray asphalt, which abolished the apple. And yet from the beginning, some new key features of the vintage iPhone had emerged 2016: a barely revised exterior design, dual camera iPhone 7 plus, optical image stabilizer for both models, a button Home sets using force-touch and headphone jack - missing and consequences that distributed better resistance to water - so long through the network, that Tim Cook might surprise hardly. Or only in detail: black returns, even in both versions and for wired listening fans is a lightning adapter on the 3.5mm headphone jack.

Other features that were often only ask for but are based on no solid evidence, Apple are saving for future generations. We continually collect at this stage, what is the situation in the Gerüchteküchen of the world and what is the probability are the Kolportagen.

Release date and name

Apple goes for the year 2011 and the iPhone 4s with the date of September. Reason, being deviated, is hardly one. Where: June 30, 2007 the iPhone went to the United States for the first time in commerce, nearly half a year before introducing Steve Jobs at Macworld Expo in San Francisco. Rumors came to the approach of the iPhone-7-idea, Apple would cancel the dramatic changes for iPhone a "birthday" for 2017 and 2016 only a slightly enhanced iPhone. "Slightly improved" is a matter of opinion of course, but at first glance, the iPhone 7 looks very much like the 6/6 generation. So far Apple had built a new form factor every two years and over the years in between, sometimes dramatically improved technology is integrated - the company has now left the pace. Therefore nothing in the way is an entirely new iPhone in the year 2017. And this will involve 7 birthday then definitely not iPhone 7S or iPhone but the iPhone 8. But does not seem until September.

Probabilities: iPhone 8: 100%, September and release date: 95 percent

OLED screen, curved

When the Apple iPhone 7 (plus) once again the screen significantly improved. Eventually uses the DCI-P3 color space smartphone and passes if necessary (photo and video) from sRGB to. The result: so bright colors like never before, the screen has become even brighter. Nevertheless, battery performance in raw state per day - depending on usage. On the contrary, it became slightly larger battery also thanks to the efficient processor A10 lasts even longer by fusion. It has always been Apple's primary concern: as many functions and sensors install, you must not recharge during the day. So, the GPS chip and third generation mobile communication was missing the original iPhone. To make the screen even brighter, Apple would have to alter in the 2017 generation to organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), they offer higher brightness with energy consumption - the Apple Watch have already benefited. Already in April 2016, the news spread, Apple could reveal itself to his Samsung Frenemy with OLED display. At that time seemed as an option for the 2016 generation, but analyst Ming-Chi Kuo is sure since this summer, Apple will plan the switch to OLED for the year 2017. Could also inspired by the design of the apple Samsung Galaxy then leave: with a screen that extends from edge to edge and can be folded underneath the edge of the galaxy on the sides. UM probably, that Apple has really copied the Korean design but with the most flexible OLED displays many more possibilities than with TFT are given today. What we bet, but even today: the home button will disappear completely. Today is the Taptic engine using the entire iPhone 7 (plus) haptic return screen, which games or even music applications will be beneficial. Button at home that you can via the software then use or simply examine the entire screen as such - also for touch ID or Siri switching. Apple is not going this step yet when
