Apple's new iPhone 8 Edition will ship in October, according to a new report from Macotakara.
The site predicts Apple will unveil three iPhones on September 12th - an iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, and an iPhone 8 Edition. The iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus are said to ship on September 22nd but the iPhone 8 Edition is said to be released in October.
According to the information from the supplier in Taiwan, iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus are likely to be released on September 22nd, which is the same schedule as usual years. However, we expect that iPhone 8 Edition would be shipped from October because the production of the shipping model starts in September.
That launch window lines up with reports that the production of the new OLED iPhone was delayed. The WSJ recently claimed that manufacturing was setback by about a month and an alleged presentation leak from Foxconn showed a delay of 5 weeks.
With just a few days until Apple's big event we're sure to see some more details leak. Follow iClarified on Twitter, Facebook, or RSS for updates.
I don't think there will be 7S. I think it is unwise to have 7S and 8 in the same product launch. It's like telling people 7S is already an old product.
