If this new report from the Nikkei Asian Review is anything to go by, we would be seeing a trio of iPhones next year. One of the new phones that might make its debut next year will reportedly be a premium version with a curved display similar to what Samsung has done with its Galaxy edge models. According to a source supposedly familiar with plans of Apple: “There will be a 4.7-inch model, another that will be 5.5 inches, and a premium handset that will be either 5.5 inches or larger equipped with a screen bent on two sides.” Samsung is also said to be supplying the new displays to Apple with this supposed curved version to be sporting an OLED screen. The South Korean tech company is currently the only manufacturer that offers these flexible OLED screens so that checks out.
This premium device was supposed to come out this year but was scrapped. According to Nikkei’s source, there will only be a regular 4.7-inch “iPhone 7” and 5.5-inch “iPhone 7 Plus” with a dual lens camera coming next month when the company is set to release new iPhones.
