Based on Apple’s previous release schedule, 2017 is an ‘S’ year. However, this year is slightly different; a leak has confirmed that Apple is planning to skip a generation and launch the iPhone 8 instead.

The iPhone 8 won’t be a total overhaul (although the iPhone X will) but it should boast enough extra features to make it worth the upgrade.

The most exciting potential addition is a new OLED screen providing the iPhone’s sharpest screen resolution to date. The screen may also include True Tone technology, which adjusts colours based on ambient lighting.

The iPhone 7’s metal build is likely to be replaced with glass, which suggests that Apple are planning to introduce wireless charging. That would be a hugely popular move with Apple users, so fingers crossed it really happens.

Interestingly, Apple may introduce a 5 inch 8 to either sit alongside or replace the current 4.7 inch standard design. The 8 will probably include an A11 chip and facial recognition technology too.

The iPhone 8 should cost around the same price as the iPhone 7, making it a lot cheaper than the rumored iPhone X.
