The iPhone X is currently the only Apple smartphone with a notch, but rumors say that that'll change later this year with the launch of a larger iPhone X Plus model and a cheaper LCD variant. Today images that claim to show dummy models of those devices have leaked.
Photos that allegedly show dummy versions of the iPhone X Plus and lower-cost LCD iPhone have been shared by Ben Geskin on Twitter. The iPhone X Plus is rumored to have a 6.5-inch OLED screen, up from the 5.8-inch display on the iPhone X, but other than that its design looks similar to the iPhone X we've got now. There's a notch, a dual rear camera setup, and no headphone jack.
Meanwhile, the lower-cost LCD iPhone is said to have a 6.1-inch screen. While the notch is expected to be included in this device, Apple will make other changes to help lower the cost from the iPhone X, which currently starts at $999. These changes include using an LCD screen rather than an OLED panel and opting for a single rear camera rather than a dual rear camera setup. Apple may also use an aluminum frame for this lower-cost model rather than stainless steel like on the iPhone X.
Apple hasn't said when it might announce new iPhone models, but if past several years are any indication, an event will happen in early to mid-September. It's been said that Apple may offer the iPhone X and iPhone X Plus in black, white, and gold color options, while the lower-cost LCD iPhone may come in gray, white, blue, red, and orange color options. Speaking of cost, analysts have suggested that the iPhone X could cost $899, the iPhone X Plus may be priced at $999, and the LCD iPhone could come in around $700 or $800.
