Apple knows how to keep things confidential when it comes to their
upcoming iPhones. Back in 2010, since the debacle of iPhone 4, Apple is
extra careful and attentive of its upcoming device leaks, and
prototypes.
Some leaks have been revolving on media about the launch date of Apple
Keynote which is expected to be 12th September. The leak reveals the
name of the device along with the specification of Apple’s 6.5 inches
iPhone variant.

According to the rumors, the 6.5-inch is expected to be called the
iPhone XS Max. Confusion is related to the price of these iPhone models.
Naming has mostly been confirmed except the 6.1-inch iPhone variant.
Although many believe that the 6.1-inch iPhone variant will be titled
iPhone 9. However, according to the renowned You Tuber “Everything Apple
Pro” the 6.1-inch model might be named iPhone XC, nothing has been
confirmed though. Furthermore, this is the year of S-models.
As done previously, instead of having an overall design change, this
year’s iPhone will have iterative changes i.e. updating the specs while
keeping last year’s design with small improvements. Similar to what
Apple did with the iPhone 4 and 4s, iPhone 5 and 5s and iPhone 6 and 6s.
Name of the Device (Expected)
IPhone XS – 5.6 inch
IPhone 9/ iPhone XC – 6.1 inch
IPhone XS Max – 6.5 inch
Expected Price of Upcoming iPhones
IPhone 9/ iPhone XR – 98,500.72 PKR
iPhone XS – 123156.72 PKR
iPhone XS Max – 129320.72 PKR
The iPhone 9/XC has been dubbed as the budget phone by the tech gurus.
It is designed to cater to those customers who can’t afford the $1000
iPhone while still want to enjoy that all-screen display design.
While there is nothing mysterious about the iPhone XS variant as it
simply is an iterative version of last year’s iPhone with possibly the
same price tag, however, the most expensive model that is set to be
launched this year by Apple is the 6.5-inch iPhone XS Max. This iPhone
variant is the direct competitor of the recently launched Samsung Galaxy
Note 9 in terms of price, size and specs.
If Apple is to be judged by its last year’s iPhone models, then it’s
safe to say that the company has yet another fruitful quarter ahead.
Since the Q2 2018 sales showed that iPhone X, iPhone 8plus, iPhone 8
occupied the top 3 spots for most sold smartphones; many experts have
suggested that the iPhone 9/XC will create a sales boom this year. |
