iPhone 8 is presently the much talked about smartphone. The upcoming smartphone is doing rounds on the internet pretty well. 2017 seems to be a significant year for Apple Inc, as it will mark the 10th anniversary of Apple’s iPhone launch. Apple is expected to make quite a number of changes in iPhone 8 including its glass body and wireless charging facility. Improved dust and water resistance is another upgraded feature that iPhone 8 is expected to get along with the other two.

A report has stated that iPhone 8 will sport an IP68 rating, which means it can stay in up to 1.5 metres of water for around 30 minutes. As of now, iPhone 7 has IP67 rating, which means the device can be immersed in 1 metre of water for up to 30 minutes.

Apart from being water and dust resistant, iPhone 8 is also expected to feature a bezel-less design. The long-range wireless charging trait of the phone will not require users to place the phone on a charging station close to it. The 3D touch technology on iPhone 8 is also expected to get an improved version.


As of now Apple lovers only need to wait for the launch of iPhone 8.
