On September 12, Apple will hold a press event to unveil its new iPhones with a whole new design an set the tone for the next few years.
As reported in The Guardian, a lot has been revealed about the new phones, thanks to a software leak by the company.
The big deal this time, however, is that Apple will be hosting the press event in the just-built Apple Park and its Steve Jobs Theatre.
The event will be the first time non-Apple personnel will be allowed on the grounds in any number, giving the world a glimpse of the latest hallowed halls of big US technology.
“Apple is expected to announce a new design for at least one of its iPhones for 2017. While the details on the naming of the device codenamed “D22” are sketchy – it could be called the iPhone 8, iPhone Pro, or perhaps the iPhone X if it is named after the Apple smartphone’s 10th anniversary – a leak from Apple of the HomePod software revealed much about its design and features,” the Guardian report adds.
The report also speculates that the hardware giant will integrate more advanced systems for its camera, including augmented reality and further enhancement of its computation photography system, which combines the images from multiple cameras on the back into one photo.
Alongside the new iPhone 8, Apple is also expected to update its iPhone 7 line of devices, possibly called the iPhone 7S and 7S Plus, in line with previous iterations of the iPhone.
These updates, if they happen, are expected be minor improvements, with some new features given by software updates.
