The common
topic all over the world these days is the September release of Apple’s
Flagship iPhone – the 10th anniversary iPhone release from Apple. With
a couple of more iPhones to accompany the iPhone 8 – the most important of the three
iPhones – Apple will be releasing a whole line of new iPhones together this
September. But with most of the focus being on latest iPhone 8, let’s discuss
some ins and outs of the new iPhone.
The New iPhone 8 Design
With
iPhone 8, Apple plans to offer a complete design overhaul and the most
important of them all is the massive change in screen-to-body ratio of the new
iPhone. As it appears, Apple is planning to increase the iPhone
8 display size for the new iPhone and we’re up for an end-to-end display with
minimal bezel compared to previous models of iPhone. Other popular smartphone
companies including Samsung, LG, etc. have already introduced similar designs
and Apple is now catching up with them.
A major
design change along with the introduction of a bigger 5.8” display in the
upcoming iPhone is removal of Home button. The bigger display naturally calls
for a virtual Home Button as there won’t be much space left on the phone’s
front to accommodate a physical button. And it won’t just be that Home button
which Apple will have to let go, it will also mean that there won’t be any
Touch ID this time around on front of new iPhone. This will help Apple in
slimming down the bezel of the new iPhone.
The
illustrations that have been revealed lately, show that the new iPhone will
come with small bezel projection at the top that will expectedly host 3D face
recognition sensors. This also makes up for the inclusion of new facial
recognition security feature in the new iPhone that Apple is referring to as
‘Pearl ID’. And addition of ‘Pearl ID’ seems pretty obvious as well after the removal
of Touch ID.
The dummy versions
show a new iPhone 8 with metal sides, glass back, and dual-camera. And, another
design rumor for new iPhone is that it might come with a new color ‘Blush Gold’.
But that’s not confirmed news yet.
The New iPhone 8 Specs
Among the
many new things that are coming with new iPhone 8, there are quite a few
changes made to the iPhone 8 Specs as well. Here we have tried to cover a few
of them.
Screen:
We have
already talked about the bigger display to make it to the new iPhone but what
this bigger display will be like? Is it going to be the same old thing that we
have had in the previous versions of iPhones? Or is there going to be something
new? Well, all the news and rumors floating around suggest that Apple is
introducing new OLED displays for its upcoming flagship model. And, as of now
it is confirmed that OLED displays will only be there in the iPhone 8 and the
other two iPhones will have same old LCD displays.
OLED
screens usually have pixels producing light of their own which is not the case
with conventional LCDs. So, these screens do not need any backlight and allow
the displays to be power-efficient. Truer blacks can also be achieved by
turning off individual pixels and it helps in widening color gamut as well as
improving the dynamic range.
Performance:
Photography:
Talking
about the camera and photography features, new iPhone will have dual-lens
camera. And one evident change that is expected with the new camera is that the
two lenses will have optical image stabilization features. In previous models,
only wide-angle lens came with OIS and this thing is going to change now.
There are
also rumors that the front cam will be a new, revolutionary one and will come
equipped with 3D-sensing capabilities. With 3D-sensing, it will be able to
determine the location and depth of items in 3D space and this will allow for
AR capabilities to come in iPhones as well.
The New iPhone 8 Software
The WWDC
2017 saw many new announcements from Apple and one of the most important of all
those announcements was that of iOS 11. And, the
developer and public betas of iPhone are already out and being tested.
iPhone 8
is expected to come with the latest iOS 11 as well and it is almost confirmed
now. And, the new software will, obviously, come equipped with many new
features that will translate in increased efficacy of the new smartphone from
Apple. Everything is getting an update in the new iOS and we expect something
that will change the life of iOS users upside down. Be it Messages or the App
Store, you’ll see a complete overhaul and the software will equip iPhone with
plenty of new features.
So, it’s
just the matter of less than a month now before the new iPhone hits the market.
Consider all these feature upgrades that the new iPhone is coming with and
decide for yourself whether it is worth a buy or not. We must say, at least
give it a try and we’re sure you’ll love the new iPhone from Apple.
