Budget 6.1-inch iPhone model appears in high quality photo renders

Budget 6.1-inch iPhone appears in photos.

Here is a look at what could be a pretty close rendition of the entry level 2018 iPhone. The renders were made based on recent specs and design rumours. The photo renders showcase a 6.1-inch iPhone, slightly larger than the iPhone X. Another difference is the single camera on the back and possibly the use of aluminium frame, instead of the stainless steel used in the previous X models. The back of the 6.1-inch iPhone is said to be glass, like on all current iPhone units. So it’s an easy assumption that it will also have wireless charging.

On another news, Apple is expected to launch three iPhones in 2018. One entry-level phone with a 6.1-inch screen and single camera, a continuation of the 5.8-inch iPhone X and a 6.5-inch iPhone Plus. In addition, there is news about two out of the three will sport dual-SIM capabilities. However, only the Chinese units will equip with a tray that accepts two SIM cards. In other countries, two of the 2018 iPhone handsets will come with a single card slot and will add the virtual Apple SIM in order to support dual SIM features.

Quick backstory, the Apple SIM launched in 2014, embedded inside the Apple iPad Air 2. This allows the user to quickly change the wireless provider depending on which one is offering the best pricing, connectivity, or features at the time. While more than 150 countries support Apple SIM, China is not one of them. That explains why two of the upcoming 2018 iPhone models will have a dual SIM card tray. According to the report, adding dual SIM-dual standby capabilities to the iPhone could pump up sales in Asian and African markets.

Other than it is going to ship with 4GB RAM and iOS 12, that is all we have known so far about this alleged Apple device. Guess we will have to wait until the company’s official launch in September to unveil the secrets. In the meantime, stay tuned with us for further updates!
