Stay tuned to see whether these rumors pan out.
Also rumored is a redesigned Apple Watch, the Series 4, which allegedly features a larger screen.
If past is prologue, we can reasonably expect the two rumored S-class iterations to be similar to last year’s iPhone X, but with boosted internal specs—the exception being the XS Max, which will likely be a plus-sized version of the iPhone XS.
For those wondering what to expect: There are a lot of rumors pointing toward three new iPhones. Although not confirmed, multiple sources suggest the phones will be called the iPhone XS, XS Max, and XR.
