Graphic designer envisions the iPhone 8

by Alan Friedman / Mar 08, 2017, 4:23 PM

We've all heard about the rumored specs for the Apple iPhone 8, such as the curved edge-to-edge AMOLED screen that practically covers the entire front of the phone. Touch ID is either embedded in the display, or replaced by a face detection system using a "revolutionary" front-facing camera to unlock the phone and to provide verification. The size of the OLED screen is said to be 5.8-inches, although some of that is earmarked for the embedded home button. The active display will be approximately 5.1 to 5.15-inches.

Earlier today, we told you about a report out of Japan that said there will be a delay in the release of the Apple iPhone 8 (aka iPhone X or iPhone edition). According to Macotakara, Apple is still working out the design of the unit and is testing various combinations of parts and materials. While the iPhone 8 could be unveiled with the rest of the 2017 iPhone line in September, it might not be released until November.

With that in mind, we are probably months away from seeing a proper leak of the device. To wile away the time, graphic designer AlHasan Husni has put together a mockup of the Apple iPhone 8 that is based on the rumored specs. Husni even included a "dark mode" for iOS 11 that many iPhone users have been hoping for. The mockup allows users to swipe right on the function area to access multitasking mode, and the virtual home button includes haptic feedback. Would you be happy if the tenth anniversary iPhone looks like Husni's mockup? You can check out the images by clicking on the slideshow below.

.....I think that's just a galaxy s8. I don't think it counts as a mock up if it's pretty much stock footage of an existing phone with an iOS theme.

Strange. I didn't know the S8 was an "existing phone" yet. Gotta look into that./s

Stop trolling dude. We all know what the S8 looks like already due to the large number of leaks.

Not really. Unbelievably, pictures of sasquatch are even blurrier than pictures of unreleased phones.

Are you retarded? If you know what Sasquatch looks like then clearly you've seen one. Otherwise, it is also "believed" to look like something someone else imagined. Unless you're one of those people that believe it exists, in which case, I'm sorry to inform you that it doesn't (and what you think it looks like is just fake BS).

Samsun has modelled their phones after iPhones so I guess it's ok.

So, it will be a Samsung phone with an Apple logo on the back? Designed in Cupertino, California by Apple. Made with parts by Samsung of South Korea. Assembled in China.

So you want a Samsung phone with an outdated, ugly and childish looking operating system called iOS? Well, good for you. I guess there needs to be someone who likes it.

"So you want a Samsung phone with an outdated, ugly and childish looking operating system called iOS?" Yes. I'll take childish looking over a goddamn mess (Green robot anyone?) that is the very definition of "outdated" as soon as you take it out of the box. Waiting for 7.1.2 are we? Well you'll be waiting....8 months to be exact. Whatever... its all good. You'll just have to buy a new one to get the update, amirite?/s

amirite? What are you a 13 year old teenage girl? Who talks like that? You are the perfect demographic for a childish operating system like iOS. I'm glad that it works for you and your simple teen mind.

@DRS1977 You do realize you're being childish here, right? 1. You're commenting on an Apple article 2. Kiko simply responded to your comment 3. Then you replied with a childish comment, making fun of iOS You look dumb as hell right now. Logoff immediately.

@LebronJamesFanboy Stick to watching the NBA instead of talking about phones which you are completely clueless about. You and kiko the troll don't know anything about phones or technology. Keep dreaming your LeBron, maybe it will get you somewhere one day.

You tilted bro? You're the one throwing around the insults left and right. "What are you a 13 year old teenage girl?" Classic. You couldn't come up with a well thought out comeback so you head straight for name calling and demographic slander. Just what'd I'd expect from an Android egotist. "Who talks like that?" Apparently 13 year old girls...... "You are the perfect demographic for a childish operating system like iOS." f**k are Android fanboys ridiculous. Over 1 BILLION people use iPhones, most of which are over 25 years of age. You gonna tell me Hughes in accounting is secretly a 13 year old girl now? GTFOH you idiot.... " I'm glad that it works for you and your simple teen mind." I'm glad your sister came over last weekend. I'm also glad she left early enough for me to get some coffee afterwards.
