Samsung recently launched its Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ flagship smartphones, taking both the fans as well as the market competitors by a storm. The device is unlike anything ever introduced. While it remains to be seen what Apple – which is among the primary rivals of Samsung – brings to the table in September, a new piece of information has popped up online that suggests that the Cupertino tech-giant might be packing the speculated iPhone 8 with a dual-camera setup.

A new piece of information has popped up online, courtesy of iDrop website. The information was published by iDrop, which claims that the upcoming 2017 iPhone will be called ‘iPhone Edition.’ While we have been hearing that since the past few months – what the fans were probably unaware of was that the device is rumoured to pack a dual camera setup.

Going by the image, the iPhone 8 (or iPhone Edition) will look similar to the recently launched Galaxy S8. It appears to have the same dual-curved screen as the Galaxy S8 (and S8+), with minimal bezels on the top and bottom. The screen is said to be an OLED panel with 2.5D glass protection. However, the back is completely different.

None of the above given information has been confirmed by the company yet.
Separately, ccording to a report published in The Bell and spotted by MacRumors, OLED technology requires less power than LCD displays and produces brighter colors.
If Apple does make a full-on move to OLED, LCD producers, some of the manufacturers who have been experimenting with more flexible designs to stay relevant in increasingly dynamic smartphone ecosystem, could be cut off from the iPhone entirely.
Apple is planning to make 60 million iPhone 8 units with OLED displays this year—about 40 percent of their production overall, according to the report. The Cupertino based manufacturer is also planning to double the number next year, also presumably one lower-tier version of iPhone will have the LCD display, and by 2019, OLED display will become the standard across all iPhone lines in 2019.
This year may see the new iPhone 8 with the OLED display, Iphone 7S and 7S Plus units which will retain the LCD displays and be the incremental updates to the iPhone 7 model.
The latest iPhone 8 will be touted to come along with a lot of updates like the OLED display, new sensor system, a function area embedded into the screen to replace the home button for TouchID, and wireless charging. All of these updates are slated to increase the cost of the iPhone 8 to more than $1,000.
