Apple is planning to introduce new iPhones 9 that would be comparatively cheaper than the existing model and the company could use the iPhone 8 as the base model for this. This report came into light by few reports given by suppliers who attended the CES 2020 at Las Vegas. According to the information, Apple may produce this iPhone which will have the body of iPhone 8 with the latest A13 Bionic chipset and Face ID.
iPhone 9 Would Resemble Its Ancestor iPhone 8
In order to make the screen bigger, Touch ID and button will not be included. By removing the fingerprint scanner, the display size will be 5.4-inch than 4.7-inch. It will feature a TrueDepth camera along with an LED flash.
Recent leaks are suggesting that Apple might bring FaceID to this iPhone, which will be a huge step for Apple as they try to make this phone as cheap as possible and in that case, bringing FaceID could lit up the cost of the device. With the inclusion of FaceID users can use the feature like Animoji or Memoji for sending stickers or calling on FaceTime Video Chat. FaceID also brings more security to the device as compared with TouchID as it is far better and more reliable.
Apple might go for new major design improvements as they try to make device edges square rather than curved edges as in iPhone 8, this will make the grip of the iPhone better just like in iPhone 4. Apple may also bring sturdier glass on the back and front of the device to provide solid protection from drops.
Apple might add more color options to this iPhone as they have done on iPhone 11, it might include 6 or 5 color options. This will make the device more bright in appearance and more unique for users.
Production of iPhone 9 might get some push back as recent Coronavirus might affect Apple’s supply chain. Apple might delay the launch of the product. Apple could push the timeline of the iPhone 12 also if this does not get resolve quickly.
