iPhone 8 release date, features, and specs

Price

Given that some models of the iPhone 7 Plus can cost up to 920, it is no surprise that some within the industry are expecting a $1,000+ price point for the iPhone 8. Rumours have suggested that Apple are planning to raise the average prices of the new iPhone range, which would make it the most expensive smartphone Apple has ever made.

However this has been disputed by recent suggestions that the iPhone 8 could retail around 560, with the 64GB version between 685 and 725. This would bring the device more in line with Samsung's Galaxy S8, currently priced at 689.

Rumours also point to three different configurations for the next flagship phone, two of which feature a cheaper to produce LCD screen over the costly OLED variant. This will almost certainly have an effect on final prices.
