Apple Is Making The Biggest Change Yet To New iPhone 8
This usually happens whenever there’s a groundbreaking design update (wireless ear pods, anyone?) on their most popular asset – the iPhone – and this comes as no surprise since the iPhone reportedly made up an astonishing 12.9% of the smartphone market in 2016.
Now, the internet is yet again blazing about Apple’s upcoming iPhone 8 as rumor has it this popular smartphone will come with is the biggest design upgrade yet.
Big – Bigger – iPhone 8 (Screen-Wise)
As Viral Thread reports, the iPhone 8 will feature some of the biggest changes to the phone’s design since it was first released back in 2007. Apple’s tenth-anniversary edition iPhone won’t have a physical Home button, and its display will be as big as possible.
iDrop News writes it is “a near certainty that the iPhone 8 won’t have a Home button or much of a bottom bezel.”
In case you don’t know – the bezel is the part of the iPhone that runs around the edge of the touch screen. So, it is pretty much clear that Apple designers are going with a screen that extends all the way to the edges of the smartphone.

- Wireless charging.
- 8-inch OLED display.
