Apple Inc’s most important new phone for years will be called the iPhone X, according to a leak of the company’s latest mobile operating system on Sept 2. The iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus are successors to the current iPhone models, while the iPhone X is the premium version with an all-new design, crisper OLED screen, improved cameras, and a 3D facial recognition scanner for unlocking the device. The iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus will look similar to the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus, but include faster processors, Bloomberg News has reported. The leak comes not long after Apple accidentally published early HomePod speaker software that provided details on upcoming iPhone features. The image and the leaked code indicate the device will be capable of making phone calls without an iPhone in range and that Apple will announce new colours, including a grey ceramic and a new gold tone.
