iPhone 7 isn't released yet, but there's already news about iPhone 8?

Although Apple has released an iPhone product in the first half of this year, it is clear that the iPhone 7 in the second half of the year is Apple's blockbuster product. However, the prediction of Ming-Chi Kuo, an analyst at KGI Securities, may disappoint those who have high expectations for this phone. He said that Apple will save major iPhone innovations for the iPhone 8 to be launched in 2017, because 2017 is the tenth anniversary of the iPhone.

KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has been following Apple's iPhone sales information for a long time and is known as "the best Apple analyst on the planet". He said that the next generation of Apple's flagship smartphone, iPhone 7, will not have "many attractive selling points". Compared with the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus released last year, the iPhone 7 may have a big change in appearance design. However, in Kuo's opinion, even if the iPhone 7 is released with a different appearance design, it will not have a substantial impact on the overall sales trend.

Guo Mingchi believes that in order to attract consumers, Apple needs to make changes. Although people are looking forward to the iPhone 7 to be released this year becoming a new classic, after analysis, the situation is not optimistic.

Finally, Kuo Ming-Chi also predicts that Apple will change its naming tradition and launch a completely upgraded iPhone 8 in 2017. The launch of iPhone 8 coincides with the 10th anniversary of the iPhone. It will be made entirely of glass, rather than the aluminum of the latest phones. It will also have an OLED display, support wireless charging, and cancel the Home function, which is obviously the iPhone in the minds of many users and designers.

Recently, there have been many reports that Apple will equip the iPhone released in 2017 with an OLED display, which may be a curved screen. The phone will cancel the Home button and use 3D Touch gestures instead of navigation, as well as Touch ID fingerprint recognition.

However, iPhone 7 has not been released yet, and the predictions about it in the future are still subject to change. However, with the appeal of the Apple brand, it is still very exciting to see how the market will react after the launch of the new iPhone this year.
