The rumors says that 5.8 IPhone will be the Iphone 8. My prediction says that the 5.8 IPhone will be a premium edition 7S.

Iphone 8 next year folks .

Yeah it's either going to be Edition or 8, from what I can tell. I don't see why it would be called anything else. If the 7S lineup has aluminum still, maybe it'll be called edition. Edition normally means ceramic though, from the watch line up.

8 makes sense, because then next year they can have the 8s and 8s+ for the "normal lineup" and the OLED be its own again as iPhone 9. Then the following year the non OLED's will be phased out completely and it'll be one lineup again.
 
I agree with your size factor line up. The naming you have currently for the iPhone I do not believe it will be labeled the 7s. I think it Might be labeled the iPhone 8 and the larger OLED model will have some name to differentiate it from the smaller models.
I think the 5.8 iPhone will be called : 7S premium edition or IPhone edition I don't know

I don't think Apple will call 5.8 iPhone , the IPhone 8 .(iPhone 8+? , does make more sense?) IPhone 8 is the regular size , 5.8 is Plus size , no way they will call IPhone 8 the 5.8 iPhone . iPhone 8+ does make more sense . At least for me
[doublepost=1495988698][/doublepost]My opinion :
2017: 7S and 7S Plus
2018- iPhone 8

It's a S year not a non S year ! And they won't change it because of a stupid 10
Anniversary

Well…they didn't change it when it was the non-S year last year either.

So who really knows what the hell Apple will or won't do?

I think those trying to stick with the old physical change in non-S year and internal change only in S-year cycle that Apple was doing still have not processed the fact that Apple broke the cycle with the 7/7+.

And if Apple has broken the cycle then why stubbornly cling to the old mantra when Apple obviously is not?

The base of the device is what designates an S or not. The design. Not the screen size. There will be the 7S lineup. Which has a 7S and 7S+, then there will be the other phone. This other phone will have OLED and bezeless design, which is the future of iPhone designs (2019 all phones will have OLED and bezeless design). It makes sense that it would be called iPhone 8 since it's the next full redesign.

I agree not giving it a number at all, and calling it iPhone Edition could also work. If they don't do that, it'll be iPhone 8 though.
[doublepost=1495989773][/doublepost]Apple does this crap all the time with the Mac Lineup, and it makes it confusing for a lot of people, but it's just what they do. As long as you can differentiate that the 7S and 7S+ is it's own lineup, and the OLED devices is also it's own, then screen size isn't an issue.
