In the past such "S" iPhones have typically had improved internal components, but maintained a similar design and feature set to the iPhone model they replaced.
Along with a giant display, this phone could also get a new name with a recent leak revealing Apple may ditch the usual Plus branding in favour of calling the Max.
"All three of the iPhones will feature almost edge-to-edge designs with a notch that houses a TrueDepth Camera System, putting an end to the Touch ID Home button in Apple's flagship iPhone line-up".
It also flies against a previous Wall Street Journal report claiming Apple ordered more LCD screens in anticipation of higher demand compared to the iPhone XS and XS Max. However, one of the smartphones that is getting a lot of attention among the trio is the 6.1-inch iPhone or the iPhone XC or iPhone 9.
As for Cupertino, Apple is introducing a total of three new iPhones: a 5.8-inch OLED iPhone, a 6.1-inch LCD iPhone, and a 6.5-inch OLED iPhone. To cut down on costs, the edges will be made of aluminum instead of stainless steel and in what may excite Apple fans, this handset will come in a variety of colours.
You can watch the live stream of Apple's iPhone event at the official event page, which will be updated just in time for the event.
What can be said with certainty is that the US-based technology giant will announce upgrades for iPhone 2018, iPad Pro 2018, MacBook and Apple Watch. The iPhones are going to be called the iPhone XS, iPhone XS Plus and the iPhone XC. An image has now surfaced online that confirms the suspicion that iPhone 2018 lineup will include at least one variant with support for two SIM cards, i.e, with a dual-SIM slot. 2018 iPhone models are expected to follow in the footsteps of 2017 models.
You can also watch it from the Special Event app on Apple TV. This would be a lower-cost version of the iPhone X, which Bloomberg said "could be the hit of the product rollout". Apple probably won't go as far as to use a plastic back, so expect more glass. Apple offers up to $175, but they only take certain models. We may also see edge-to-edge displays, much like the design of the iPhone X.
