iPhone 8 News: Vertical Dual-Cameras
The leaked photo of the clear iPhone 8 case suggests the smartphone will come with a dual-camera positioned vertically instead of horizontally, different from how it's currently placed on the iPhone 7.
The case backs up a recent Bloomberg report that said Apple was reportedly testing versions of the iPhone 8 for better photos by positioning the dual-camera system vertically. This week, a schematic leak suggested the cameras on the 10th anniversary phone will be vertically aligned. Another rumor pointed to a vertical camera module would make the device ideal for augmented reality games.
Here’s the leaked schematic of the iPhone 8 released this week:
The leaked picture of the iPhone 8 case also shows a longer power button on the bottom of the device, compared to the current lightning port, which is smaller.
iPhone 8 Embedded Touch ID
Numerous reports have claimed Apple will release the iPhone 8 with the Touch ID embedded in the screen display. However, an analyst said this month that integrating the new Touch ID onto the display was the feature causing Apple the most trouble.
Some reports have said Apple will embed the Touch ID on the back of the phone rather than the front of the display. However, Friday’s leaked iPhone case image suggests the Touch ID will be located on the front of the device.
