This Is Probably Not the iPhone 9

We're inching towards the launch of the next-generation iPhone SE, and Apple could launch the smartphone sometime at the finish of next calendar month. However, a new video shows how the iPhone 9 could expect and feel.

There have been various rumors and reports regarding the spiritual successor to the iPhone SE that was released in 2022. It has been widely accustomed that its pattern volition be based on the ii-year-old iPhone viii, with a few changes here and there, rather than the futuristic iPhone xi.

A new but brusque hands-on video has surfaced that claims to show the design of the iPhone 9. The device appears to have a forepart design similar to that of the iPhone 8, featuring a Touch ID button and an LCD screen. The sides, nonetheless, resemble that of the iPhone 5S, thank you to a flat blueprint. We don't think that it'due south the existent iPhone 9, though.

The phone that you can see in the video appears to take thick bezels above and below the screen. It shows a unmarried rear-facing camera and one front-facing photographic camera, which volition near probable be the case. However, the pattern of the alleged iPhone ix doesn't friction match the blueprint that was showcased by OnLeaks in his 3D renders. OnLeaks has been pretty authentic in the past, so we have reasons to incertitude the authenticity of this leak.

Apple could equip the upcoming affordable smartphone with a 4.7-inch LCD screen rather than a iv-inch screen on the iPhone SE. The iPhone 9 leaked design shows that the device volition drop support for a 3.5mm headphone jack. The smartphone could exist made available in plenty of color options.

Our Take

The leaked video doesn't appear to be authentic as some of the design elements don't match with the previous set of reports. However, information technology gives us a look at what to expect from the iPhone 9.

We call back that the upcoming low-price iPhone would be too dated in terms of blueprint, featuring a screen with huge bezels at the elevation and the bottom, something that nosotros've not seen on Android phones for three years.
