Latest Leak Suggests Apple Will Announce 'iPhone 8', 'iPhone 8 Plus', and 'iPhone X' on Tuesday

[MacRumors]

Last night, the iOS 11 GM was leaked and we got a glimpse into numerous iPhone 8 features, including a look at a new edition of the Apple Watch, and even new "Animoji." Now, developer Steve Troughton-Smith has dug up new info related to the official names of the iPhones being announced on Tuesday.

According to the developer, Apple will call the smartphones the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus (for the two LCD devices), and iPhone X (for the OLED model). These names will replace the iPhone 7s, iPhone 7s Plus, and iPhone 8 monikers that have been attached to each respective model over the past few months.

In a separate Tweet, Troughton-Smith pointed out that this is still not an exact confirmation, but it is the closest we've gotten to an official name for the upcoming iPhones. "Maaaybe the DeviceTree is lying about the marketing name, maybe not," he said. "But right now, D22 thinks it is iPhone X, so that's good enough for me."

"Latest leaks suggest Apple announce iPhone 8, 8 Plus and iPhone X on Tuesday. "

Well of course, that's when the Keynote is.

 

[Davmeister]

Ok. Now everyone remember: it's iPhone TEN not iPhone "ex". Just like it was Mac OS Ten! Hehe.

 

[ForumChick]

Tuesday on macrumors will be total chaos. Really total war.

 

[Cronowerx]

Cue the “Is it iPhone Ten or iPhone Ex” debate.

 

[ThisBougieLife]

Wow, so I guess I am getting an iPhone 8 after all

 

[Brookzy]

It's gotta be iPhone Pro, surely.

 

[BWhaler]

iPhone Xpensive

 

[Radon87000]

Seems Apple doesnt want people with the lower tier LCD phones to think they are inferior to the iPhone X in any way and hence skipping the S moniker. Psychological marketing

 

[Elijen]

The Keynote will be either an epic fail or an epic success. I expect the first one.

 

[Solarioc]

Wow if this is the case maybe they will drop the S model and innovate every year!

 

[Ds6778]

Apple couldn't consolidate their product lineup if Jobs rose from the dead. Just what we need. SMH

Actually, there's a good chance that it will be officially pronounced "ex", to avoid making the 8 sound two full generations behind the X.

I'm only going to buy the iPhone X if it has a headphone jack, costs $850 for 128GB, and comes with free AirPods. Otherwise I'm just going to get the regular 8.

That is what I was thinking. This may even be tbe last number they use.

 

[44267547]

It's gotta be iPhone Pro, surely.

I disagree. Pro will not likely be named for the OLED model. Even with all the new features, that doesn't make it a Pro device. It's a phone that makes and receives calls, to me, there is nothing Pro about this.

 

[djcerla]

Perfect naming scheme, IMO.

And, if they lower the price of the "regular" 8's, Android OEMs will be in serious trouble, as the only thing that keeps them afloat is the price umbrella that Apple gently provided thus far.

[Superhappytree]

Couldn't this just be a placeholder name that they've used for it though like how we've been referring to it as the iPhone 8? And couldn't they change it when it comes to actually announcing it? If this is it though then I can't say I'm a fan, but hey it's just a name after all. It's the phone itself what I'm most looking forward to.

 

[dantracht]

Too bad, I was hoping for iPhone, iPhone Plus, iPhone Pro.

 

[zombierunner]

I think it will be iPhone Edition. If they call it iPhone X (ten), then what happens in 2 years time?

 

[shyam09]

So... 7 ate 9 I guess? No iPhone 9 confirmed.

 

[thiscatisfat]

iPhone 7S, iPhone 7S Plus and the third would most likely be called iPhone Edition...

 

[Abazigal]

Only question left - is Touch ID still in the iPhone X, and just how good face ID is.

Gosh, has everything been leaked already?!?

 

[DrumApple]

I don't know why anyone would want anything but the X, besides price and maybe size... but I doubt it will actually be THAT much more expensive than the 8 models.
