Apple is yet to announce the successor of last year’s iPhone 6S and 6S Plus, which is expected to be named as iPhone 7. But now there are reports about the successor of alleged iPhone 7, which is expected to be called as iPhone 8.
As per reports, Apple is working on a glass body for the alleged iPhone 8 which may come next year. The speculations started after Apple Insider (a technology focused website) cited a note issued by analyst Ming-Chi Kuo of KGI Securities in which he stated that Apple is working on an iPhone with glass design to differentiate it from other iPhones.
Apple is expected to opt for AMOLED Display for the 2017 iPhone to keep its weight in check. As per Kuo, the glass bodied iPhone will be as durable as current metal iPhones.
Meanwhile Apple is expected to announce its new flagship this September. As per earlier reports, the so called iPhone 7 will be water and dust resistance. Analysts expect Apple to announce iPhone 7 with 2 GB RAM and iPhone 7S with 3 GB RAM.
