Apple's 10th anniversary for the iPhones will take place in 2017, and the company has something 'spectacular' planned for the occasion. Apple's 2017 iPhone will be named "iPhone 8" and it will be the next sensation in the market. "iPhone 8" is a tentative name, and yet the most logical choice for the device. According to "Tim Cook", "iPhone 8 will definitely create a real revolution unlike it's predecessors". So, our expectations and estimations for the upcoming iPhone 8 is really really at its full brim. As usual, we've got several months ahead of us, until the launch of the iPhone 8, but due to Apple's mapped out ambition for the next iPhone, rumors are already circulating in abundance, and tech enthusiasts have started hinting on the impressive features the iPhone 8 will bring.
Features
Apple's iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus were both very impressive pieces, considering the "red" edition which was released few weeks ago. It was a real show stealer and it received immense love from the Apple users who were in utter shock. Following the rumors, Apple are testing more than 10 prototype iPhone models. So it is very early or perhaps not entirely clear on the features we're going to see. Thus Rumors suggest that the brand will come up with a radical redesign, with an edge-to-edge display. This means that there will be No Bezel, not even on top or bottom. So the display will be housed with features like Touch ID fingerprint sensor and a front-facing selfie camera. Apple may even get rid of the Home button, perhaps this was the Tim Cook's revolution for the brand.

Now with this features, we are sincerely hoping for a unique and feature-packed iPhone 8. Further more, another rumour unveiled online, saying that Apple are on the verge or they're planning to produce a total of three iPhone models in 2017. It is actually confusing, but since iPhone 8 is sure, perhaps the other two device will be called iPhone 7s and iPhone 7s Plus. Multiple rumors also suggest that there will be three (3) versions of iPhones, first is the "Premium" OLED model & second will be a two standard LCD devices, with sizes that may include 4.7 inches, 5.5 and 5.8 inches OLED display. The "high-end" OLED iPhone 8 will likely feature a glass body with Bezel-less screen while others will continue with aluminum body.
