IPhone 8 won’t feature curved OLED display after all

BGR reports that the touch-ID technology on the iPhone 8 will now be rather implemented right into the display which is expected to be curved on all four sides.

However, IHS Markit analyst Wayne Lam says that the device would have a flat screen rather than a curved display that wraps around the edges.

The new iPhone would be called “Edition” to mark the 10th-anniversary of iPhones and would be in line with the Apple Watch Edition.

Loup Ventures recently conducted a survey of 234 current iPhone users and found that 23 percent of them intend to upgrade to the next iPhone.

Some rumors said this new edge-to-edge display would be a curved screen, similar to that of Samsung’s Galaxy S7 Edge.

Since this is going to be the 10th anniversary of Apple’s iPhone launch events, there is a lot to expect from it. Reports had indicated that the ambitious wireless charging system that Apple had earmarked for the iPhone 8 was causing technical problems, however the new reports are suggesting that they may have been solved and wireless charging will indeed feature, as reported by Value Walk. Tim Cook of course has been uncharacteristically effusive when discussing the technology, even going so far as to compare its potential impact to that of the smartphone itself. The material will fit well with Apple’s design requirements for the iPhone 8 and ensure that wireless charging works efficiently as well. Apple can squeeze screen space into the iPhone 8 by trimming away some of the bezel, or removing it completely.

Unlike conventional LCD displays, OLED screens feature pixels that produce their own light.

iPhone 8 leaks continue to float on the web, updating Apple followers regarding the highly anticipated flagship. It revealed that instead of iPhone 8, the upcoming smartphone will be marketed as iPhone Edition.

According to The Sun, Apple has a long way to go before settling on any final and particular design for the rumored iPhone Edition. We’ll catch you up on the latest rumors for those devices and for fringe items set expectations on whether or not we will see an update this year.

Battery life remains as one of the most important features of modern smartphones. With this in mind, a question needs to be asked – how could Apple legitimize the iPhone 8/iPhone Edition’s price? The upcoming Apple device will run on A11 10-nanometer processor, and coupled with a 3GB of RAM, as well as 3 variants of internal storage, the 64GB, 128GB, and 256GB.
