IPhone SE 2 coming early next year — Made in Bengaluru

Starting with the iPhone 8 rumours, the latest piece of information to be derived from the HomePod firmware indicates the anticipated Face ID facial recognition feature will work even when the phone’s lying flat.

Additionally, Daring Fireball’s John Gruber suggests the cellular Apple Watch would have a new design over the original’s.

Ever since the Apple Watch first launched in 2015, fans have been clamouring for cell service so they can ditch the phone and use the watch as a more independent device. The tech giant’s CEO Tim Cook told CNBC that augmented reality is going to make the iPhones “even more essential”.

We’ve dug a couple of interesting things.

Basically, I’ll believe it when I see it. The report also adds that Apple will enjoy a 10 per cent exemption on basic customs duty which should allow it to price the iPhone SE 2 competitively and compete against the growing influx of budget and mid-range Android smartphones. The horizontally aligned dual rear camera is present and correct, and doesn’t take on the vertical positioning expected on the iPhone 8.

Beyond the shadow of doubt, many gadget fans are looking forward to the arrival of the iPhone 8.

Apple iPhone 8 is will have a 5.8 inch display and sport a organic light-emitting diode (OLED) screen. It might have 256GB of internal storage and 3GB of RAM.

“Taiwan-based contract electronics maker Wistron Corp.is preparing for expansion of its production base in India to produce the next-generation smaller iPhone – the iPhone SE – according to sources in the South Asian country”, the report said.

Other rumored features include a 12MP rear camera and 5MP camera on the front.

This could mean that these babies might have inductive charging, which is more popularly known as wireless charging. However, we now have no details regarding the camera resolution and sensors that will debut on the upcoming iPhone 7S Plus.

Apple will soon launch 8th version of its flagship iPhone shortly.

Whether Face ID will replace or launch alongside Touch ID in the iPhone 8 will be revealed once Apple officially unveils the smartphone, expected to be sometime in September.
