Following some of the most extensive iPhone leaks ever, Apple just announced three new iPhones today: the iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone X.
The iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus will come with the newer A11 Bionic chip, which consists of six cores — four low-efficiency and two high-performance. Also of note, the cameras will also receive a bump in resolution, with 12-megapixel sensors around back and a 7-megapixel front shooter. Both will also come with Qi wireless charging, as well.
If that’s enough to whet your appetite, here’s how you can expect to place your preorder and get your iPhone 8 or iPhone 8 Plus before everyone else.
iPhone 8: Pricing
Historically, Apple drops the price of the previous year’s iPhone models to make way for the newer models.
Despite rumors that this year’s high-end iPhone will be the most expensive iPhone to date, it’s likely pricing for the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus will follow the same trend.
