Leaked iOS 11 Firmware Reveals iPhone X Release
Alongside the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus.
According to iOS 11 firmware leaks attained by 9to5mac, Apple will unveil the iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone X this coming Tuesday, September 12. The name of the forthcoming iPhone model has been disputed for months, but it now seems as if we’ll get both. The former — the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus — will be modest upgrades to the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus with the same industrial design, glass backs, the new A11 chip, and wireless charging capabilities. The iPhone X however will be the nearly-bezelless OLED model that has been touted and teased as the iPhone 8 for months. It’ll feature a 5.8-inch OLED display in a body only slightly larger than the current 4.7-inch iPhone 7.
In addition to the name leaks, reports suggest iOS 11 will include a new set of wallpapers, capability for the LTE Apple Watch, a “Portrait Lighting” feature, new video recording resolution and capture speeds, Face ID, 3D animated emojis called “Animoji” seen below, and much more.
