IPhone 8 To Feature Bold Re-design?

(RTTNews) - Apple is reportedly planning to launch a completely revamped iPhone 8 next year, as the tech giant plans to celebrate the 10th anniversary of its blockbuster device.

Apple fanboys have started groaning due to three consecutive years of seeing the same design reused in the iPhone 6, iPhone 6s and iPhone 7. According to credible rumor sources, Apple is expected to make many changes to the appearance of iPhone as well as introduce new technology.

"The next iPhone will be, I am told, a clear piece of glass (er, Gorilla Glass sandwich with other polycarbonates for being pretty shatter resistant if dropped) with a next-generation OLED screen (I have several sources confirming this)," wrote tech blogger Robert Scoble on a Facebook post. "You pop it into a headset which has eye sensors on it, which enables the next iPhone to have a higher apparent frame rate and polygon count than a PC with a Nvidia 1080 card in it."

The new "clear iPhone" will put holograms on top of the real world like Microsoft HoloLens does, Scoble says. According to reports, Apple is expected to include a new sensor developed by the Primesense team on the next iPhone.

"The phone itself has a next-generation 3D sensor from Primesense, which Apple bought. Apple has 600 engineers working in Israel on just the sensor. It's the 10th anniversary of the iPhone. It's the first product introduction in Apple's new amazing headquarters. It's a big f**king deal and will change this industry deeply. It'll get rid of the HTC Vive lighthouse system, too," Scoble says.
