Everything we know about the iPhone 8 (AAPL)
Apple is widely expected to launch new iPhones in September.
There's been a ton of speculation and reports about the upcoming iPhone, which is expected to be completely redesigned.
The pressure is on Apple, too. It's the 10th anniversary of the first-ever iPhone, launched in 2007, and the company is expected to have some big plans to mark the occasion.
Wall Street analysts hope the new iPhone drives a "super cycle" of sales, propelling Apple to potentially become the first trillion-dollar publicly-traded company.
Apple rarely comments on upcoming products, but some accidentally-released code from Apple suggests some of the rumors may be accurate.
Here's what you need to know about the upcoming iPhone.

Apple is expected to launch three iPhones — one that's completely redesigned, and two models that are updates to the current iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. Analysts have suggested several names for the redesigned iPhone, including "iPhone Pro," "iPhone Edition," "OLED iPhone," and "iPhone 8." This report will focus entirely on the "iPhone 8," as we're calling it.
The redesigned iPhone is the model that's received the most attention. It's expected to have an edge-to-edge screen with curved edges, and much smaller bezels than the current iPhone 7. The screen uses a newer kind of display technology called "OLED" that promises to use less power and provide darker blacks.
This rendering of what the iPhone is expected to look like comes from designer Martin Hajek, who posts the files used to make his renders online.
Apple seemingly confirmed the iPhone 8 redesign with significantly smaller bezels in this image included in HomePod firmware it distributed. The codename for this image? D22.
