With more and more apps, videos and photos planted into
iPhone, the low storage of iPhone has been complained a lot. And Apple has paid
great attention to this in recent iPhone releases since iPhone 7. According to the latest
reports from TrendForce, the upcoming new iPhone – let’s call it iPhone 8
currently (since it might be iPhone 7S or any other name Apple likes), will
dump its low-storage options and directly start from 64GB in storage, with the
top storage being 256GB for saving photos, video clips, and apps.
Actually, this isn’t the first time that Apple has abandoned
low-storage option and improved the storage to higher level. When Apple
released the iPhone 7, it ditched the 16GB-storage iPhone and started from the
32GB version. Now, the next generation of iPhone is reportedly to abandon the
32GB option and provide even higher storage from 64GB.
And according to TrendForce, there would be 3 models of new
iPhone: 4.7 inch, 5.5 inch and 5.8 inch. The new 5.8 inch iPhone 8 will come
with advanced hardware configurations in 2 options of storage: 64GB and 256GB. The
improvement could play a part in the pricing of the upcoming iPhone, as rumored
to be over $1,000 on the 5.8 inch iPhone 8 256GB model with some new
technologies like OLED displays, 3GB RAM, wireless charge, etc.
According to the TrendForce report, the below rumors might
also be supported:
- The 5.8-inch version could get an AMOLED display, 2K resolution and no curved display
- The 5.8-inch version could lose its home button and increase its body-to-screen ratio, making it around the same size as the 4.7-inch version
- The 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch versions may both have LCD displays
- The 5.5-inch and 5.8-inch versions could have 3GB of RAM, while the 4.7-inch version may stick to 2GB of RAM.
