Tech giant Apple is expected to launch a revolutionary new iPhone later this year but now we may have an idea of what the actual smartphone may look like.

Reputable Apple leaker Benjamin Geskin recently uploaded a picture of what seems to be a dummy of the upcoming smartphone. The device, which Geskin says is a CNC model from Apple’s Chinese manufacturer Foxconn, features front and back glass panels wrapped around a stainless steel frame.

Leak confirms biggest upgrade for iPhone 8

The device in the picture follows a design language very similar to the original first generation iPhone which may be Apple’s way of marking the 10 anniversary of the revolutionary smartphone.

The iPhone 8 dummy also features a curved, edge-to-edge display and lacks a physical home button which all fall in line with earlier rumours. Apple is also reported to be working on integrating the finger print scanner into the smartphone's display and realign the dual rear cameras in vertical orientation.

Earlier, rumours also suggested that we may see three new iPhones released this year that include the upgraded iPhone 7s and 7s plus in addition to the 10 anniversary iPhone, which is expected to feature major upgrades and could end up costing more than a $1000.

However, Apple has not released any official statement on the much-awaited smartphone so far and so many of the rumours circulating on the internet may not turn out to be true.
