iPhone 8 News: Leaks Reveal A 5-Inch Screen Model With Vertical Dual Camera Features [Video]
The iPhone 8 rumors are just keeping popping up. Apple Inc. is rumored to building a 5-inch iPhone that will be featuring a vertical dual camera setup, according to a new report leaked out of Japan.
The report from Macotakara says that the company's supply chain in Asia claims that Apple will unveil the 5-inch iPhone along with 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch models next year, reports Fortune Magazine.
According to the leaked information, Apple is currently working on a third iPhone model that could feature a 5-inch display and a dual-lens rear camera that is similar to the iPhone 7 Plus.
Just a few days ago, there was a leak related to iPhone 8 model that was codenamed as 'Ferrari" and is said to be the premium model or the rumored flagship smartphone of the 2017 iPhone series. About whether the iPhone 8 'Ferrari' and the 5-inch screen iPhone model are one, there is solid evidence to support the claim.
However, fans and critics are also saying that there is a high possibility that these 2 Apple models could be one. This is because the iPhone 7 is said to be the predecessor of the iPhone 8 because the iPhone 7 features a 4.7-inch screen.
On the other hand, the iPhone 7 Plus is believed to be the predecessor of the iPhone 8 Plus, as it features a 5.5-inch screen and making the iPhone 8 Ferrari bear the 5-inch display. These are only speculations.
However, Apple is expected to make a final decision on the complete 2017 iPhone designs during its second fiscal quarter ending March 31, according to the Macotakara report.
Rumors also suggest that the iPhone 8 will feature an all-glass body, edge-to-edge OLED display, a 3D camera, and a long-range wireless changing capability.
The iPhone 8 is also rumored to come with better camera technology. In a note to clients, KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said that the new flagship phone might boast a dual optical image stabilization that improves photo quality and optical zoom range in the phones.
The rumor, courtesy of Japanese website Macotakara, suggests the new 5-inch iPhone will include dual cameras that are mounted vertically.
By switching the cameras to a vertical configuration, Apple would be offering an iPhone that you use on its side, much like a digital camera for capturing photos and videos.
