– Apple’s presentation will focus on a new design approach, emphasizing thinness over hardware specs.
– Basic specs include a 6.6-inch screen with a resolution of 2740×1260, powered by the A19 chip (A19 Pro for the Pro model).
– Featuring a dynamic island and a single rear camera.
– The body will be a blend of titanium and aluminum.
– It will utilize Apple-developed 5G chips.
Kuo also confirmed information from The Information stating that Apple will discontinue the iPhone Plus models. This decision was influenced by the fact that sales of the Plus models only accounted for 5-10% of total sales, with the regular, Pro, and Pro Max models already covering the majority of the market. He clarified that the iPhone Ultra-Slim will not replace the Plus models.
