From Siri to iPhone 5’s Touch ID to iPhone 6’s 3D touch, Apple has had many inventions that were once beyond our dreams. But throughout the last few years, this company has been slacking off ever since Steve Jobs’ death. From iPhone 5 to iPhone 7, their designs seemed overwhelmingly similar, the phone just keeps getting slimmer, the border gets smaller, the screen gets bigger, and more colorful. The only thing new about the iPhone 7 is the missing headphone port. Apple doesn't have enough features to fulfill buyers and to release a new device every year.

Will there be anything new and surprising about the iPhone 8? Apple hasn't done much with the iPhone screen other than upping the size, but the iPhone 8 screen will undergo great changes. Analysts are claiming that iPhone 8 will have a curved AMOLED screen, which will have better resolutions. If you think the iPhone 7 Plus’ 5.5-inch screen is too big or the iPhone’s 4.7-inch screen is too boring, now you got a new choice with the rumored 5-inch screen for the iPhone 8. Other rumors also say that the iPhone 8 won’t have a home-button but includes wireless charging like the Samsung S7. Let’s hope that Apple will not disappoint us with the iPhone 8.
