The iPhone 8 is also believed to come with a virtual home button, a Facial Recognition feature that could reportedly replace the Touch ID technology, a wireless charging feature or a faster charging using USB-C, a stainless steel and glass-made body with mirror-like finish, as well as a dual-lens camera that are speculated to be in vertical position.
The upcoming smartphone is also rumored to be priced at around $999 to $1,200.
