iPhone 8 is to be launched with a new curved OLED screen, but also with a USB-C port instead of Lightning, according to information obtained by a well-known American publication. Apple would have already ordered from its partners enough OLED screens for iPhone 8 so that mass production can start without problems in the coming months.
According to today's information, the curved OLED screen for iPhone 8 would differentiate Apple's product from those of competitors, but also from others in the iPhone series. What will be special about this curved OLED screen of the iPhone 8 is not yet known, but the Apple company has high hopes that it would substantially increase the sales of iDevices in the coming years.
The new curved OLEd screen for iPhone 8 will also allow the substantial modification of the iconic front panel, which will be covered almost entirely by the screen. We are talking about a radical change that Apple is preparing for iPhone 8 this year, it will bring us a new experience of using iPhone terminals for any kind of tasks.
iPhone 8 – curved OLED screen and USB-C port
Apart from the curved screen of the iPhone 8, the Apple company is also preparing to replace the Lightning port with a USB-C one, according to today's data. This is the first time that a serious rumor suggests that the iPhone 8 will have a USB-C port instead of Lightning, the change coming after Apple shoved Lightning down our throats 4 years ago.
It was expected that the Lightning port would disappear from Apple iDevices, and the iPhone 8 would set the "tone" of change starting this year, after Macs exclusively adopted this technology. By implementing a USB-C port in the iPhone 8, Apple will force us to buy a new series of accessories, so you have to be prepared for that.
"Apple Inc. has decided to adopt a flexible display for one model of the new iPhone coming out this year and has ordered sufficient components to enable mass production, people familiar with the matter said. Apple had been studying flexible organic light-emitting diode or OLED screens similar to those used by rival Samsung Electronics Co. and had asked suppliers for prototypes."
iPhone 8 comes with a lot of changes from Apple, both in terms of design and implemented technologies, so we are not talking about a minor update. Considering all these changes for the iPhone 8, it becomes easier to understand why the price of 1000 dollars could be applied by Apple.
