If the rumors are legit, the iPhone 9 will be Apple's 'entry-level' offering and will pack an iPhone X-a-like 6.1in LCD screen with room up top for Face ID. The so-called iPhone 11 and 11 Plus, also referred to as the iPhone X2 and iPhone X Plus, will sport 5.8in and 6.5 OLED displays, respectively, with rumors also pointing to souped-up camera setups, an upgraded 7nm A11 CPU, and a brand new USB-C charger.

Latest news

15/8/18: Apple's 2018 iPhones will offer Apple Pencil support and up to 512GB built-in storage, according to research firm TrendForce.
It's unclear whether these features, similar to those found on Samsung's newly-launched Galaxy Note 9, will be available on all three incoming iPhones or reserved for Apple's higher-end OLED models.

These OLED models will, unsurprisingly, be more expensive than the "budget" 6.1in LCD iPhone 9, which Trendforce expects to have a starting price of around $699 to $749. The so-called iPhone X (2018) and iPhone X Plus will have starting prices of $899 to $949 and $999, respectively, according to the research firm.

The report confirms that the two OLED models are already assembled, while the budget LCD model will begin assembly in mid-September, in line with the smartphones' rumoured September and October release dates, respectively.

14/8/18: Yet another video showing off Apple's 2018 iPhones has cropped up on YouTube (below), courtesy of DetroitBORG. The seven-minute video shows off new dummy units obtained by Sonny Dickson, and refers to the incoming devices as the iPhone 9, iPhone X (2018) and iPhone X Plus. The clip doesn't have many surprises in store, but the "fairly accurate" models show that all three new iPhones will feature a notched design to accommodate Face ID. The 'cheap' LCD iPhone 9 will sport a single-lens camera on its rear, while its presumaly more expensive siblings will retain the iPhone X's dual camera system.
