iPhone 8 could only be launched in October by the Apple company, this being the second rumor that suggests that the new smartphone will not be launched as early as the previous models. Traditionally, the world expects the iPhone 8 to hit the market in September, along with the iPhone 7S, but Apple's plans could be completely different for this year.
The lamination of the new OLED screen for the iPhone 8 is one of the problems facing Apple at the moment, but it is not the only one. It seems that the adoption of the new 3D camera system for the iPhone 8 would generate problems in production, and from here would come a possible delay regarding the launch on global markets.
For the time being, the partners of the Apple company still do not provide many details regarding the iPhone 8, a sign that Apple has not yet finalized plans for its global launch. It is also very strange that there has been so little information about the iPhone 8 until now, a sign that things are not quite as good as many fans would like.
iPhone 8 could be released in October or November
According to today's information, October is the most advanced date when the iPhone 8 could reach the market, but there is a chance that it will be launched for us even in November. If this turns out to be true, then the iPhone 8 will arrive very late on the market and will probably be sold in limited quantities when it goes on sale to customers.
Moreover, various analysts have been saying this during the last months, suggesting that the iPhone 8 will have big problems with production and the initial quantities will be limited. Now we find out what are the big problems of the iPhone 8, but of course the new Touch ID could also create production problems considering that Apple could integrate it under the screen of the new smartphone.
"There are signs indicating that Apple may delay the launch of its next-generation iPhone to October or even November, instead of September as usual. Technical issues related to the lamination process of curved OLED panels, and the adoption of a 3D sensing system may cause the delay of the new iPhone devices."
To be completely honest, I kind of expect the iPhone 8 not to be launched together with the iPhone 7S and this is probably one of the motivations behind the launch of this second model. If Apple doesn't have the iPhone 8 ready for a September launch, it will need something in between to be sold to customers around the world before the winter holidays.
