There is still a bit of waiting before Apple announces its next-generation iPhones. Just like last year, we are getting three iPhones this year – the iPhone XI, the iPhone XI Max, and the affordable iPhone XIR. Yeah! We agree Apple should ditch the roman numerals.
We already know what all three phones will look like, thanks to 3D CAD images from the trusted leaker – Steve Hemmerstoffer a.k.a. OnLeaks. The main change will be on the rear where all three devices will sport a hideous square-shaped camera housing. The iPhone XI and iPhone XI Max will both add an extra camera for a triple camera setup. The iPhone XIR will also get an extra sensor for a dual camera setup.
If you don’t like the design, there is nothing you can do as we have gotten our hands on live images of the phones’ cases and they confirm Apple will indeed be going with the design.
The images which were provided by an industry source show the cases for all three phones. Other than the size, there isn’t any difference between the phone cases.
The cases have a kevlar-like appearance and should provide a good grip. The square-shaped camera cut-out is at the top left corner. There is a power button on the right while the volume rocker and a cut-out for the sleep key are on the left. The bottom is home to cut-outs for the charging port, the speaker, and the microphone.
[envira-gallery id=”256815″]As is the tradition with most iPhones, the new iPhones will most likely arrive in September which means we still have over three months of waiting. We believe some folks may decide to skip this year’s new models because of the design and hope Apple adopts a better design for 2020’s models.
