2018 iPhone Prices Leaked Along with Surprise

Apple is expected to unveil three new iPhones next month, and the 6.1-inch LCD model will reportedly get the most attention from Apple when it comes to production.
 
TrendForce, a market intelligence firm, predicts that the 6.1-inch iPhone (which could be called the iPhone 9) will start at $699 or $749.
 
That pricing would be in line with the $699 4.7-inch iPhone 8, which would be a pleasant surprise given the big expected jump in screen size. Apparently, Apple is looking to stay competitive with cheaper Android phones with flagship specs. The OnePlus 6, for example, packs a 6.3-inch display, Snapdragon 845 processor and 6GB of RAM for only $529.
 
TrendForce says that the 6.1-inch LCD iPhone will account for 50 percent of Apple's production among the three new iPhones launching this fall. Previous reports point to this iPhone featuring a single rear camera, while the iPhone X sequel and iPhone X Plus are supposed to get dual rear shooters.
 
The Taipeti-based firm also says to also expect an upgraded version of the iPhone X at 5.8 inches at a price of $899 to $949 and a 6.5-inch iPhone X Plus that would start at $999.
 
So, this time around, you could potentially get a huge 6.5-inch screen for the same price as last year's 5.8-inch iPhone X. The iPhone X Plus will reportedly be the only phone in Apple's lineup to offer dual-SIM support, which would be a welcome feature for international travelers.
