Apple Event Predictions

This week on Tuesday Apple is set to make an announcement and we pretty much already know its going to be the new iPhone. As I do pretty much every year I get the blogging craving and need to write what I think might be in the new iPhone. Lets get started!

iPhone X

Lets start with the name or names. Normally we could predict the name by going up one number or adding a S to the current name. This year is a different year compared to others. This year is the 10th anniversary of the iPhone. Most people seem to agree that they will show a phone called the iPhone X for the anniversary and this will most likely be the most expensive iPhone. But that will probably not be the only phone they show off, they will probably brake the trend of iPhone # then iPhone #S, and go from iPhone 7 to iPhone 8 and 8 plus. 

These Phones will have most of the new features of the iPhone X except for maybe one or two minor features. These phones will probably start at a cheaper price then the iPhone X. So the line up will probably be iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, and iPhone X. 

Infinity Screen

Now lets talk about the thing we all use everyday the iPhone screen. Now I think most people seem to think this will be the same for all models, but I think it might be different. I think one of the key features of the iPhone X will be a top to bottom edge to edge screen. This is what most Android phones have been moving to and that look vary sleek. Most people have been making renders of a iPhone looking like that as well. 

But most people seem to think that is what all the iPhones will look like, I think this style will only be the iPhone X and the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus will look and have the same screen as the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus. iPhone X will need something to make it different and I think that might be one of the things that makes it different from the 8.

Touch ID or Face ID

The iPhone X will also need something else to make it different from the iPhone 8. We have been hearing rumors about touch ID leaving because of the bigger screen. Also if the screen is bigger we will be seeing the end of a physical home button on the iPhone X. Unless they figure out how to make the Touch ID sensor to work under a sheet of glass the iPhone X will not have Touch ID. Instead they may use Facal recognition in replace of Touch ID. 

The iPhone 8 and 8 Plus having smaller screens will still have a physical home button and will have the normal Touch ID. Im sure they will come up with some reason the iPhone 8 won't be able to use Face ID so it can be a iPhone X only feature.

Storage

This one shouldn't be too much of a shocker but the rumors have been saying that the new iPhones will start with a 64 GB configuration instead of a 32 GB configuration. We might even see the max storage go to 512 GBs that might be a iPhone X only storage size.

Conclusion

These are probably the mayor things that will be different from the current iPhones. These phones will also have new and faster processors, better cameras, and they will all run iOS 11. I think the prices for the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus will be similar to what the 7 and 7 Plus are now but the iPhone X will be the one that start higher at $999 or $1,000. So now we wait and see, lucky we only have to wait till Tuesday.
