Apple may announce new iPhone soon

The next special edition of the iPhone is expected to keep the "brand" SE, short for Special Edition, according to technology specialist Evan Blass, famous for anticipating some news before its official revelation. The information was placed on his Twitter account, Evleaks, with a small frame referring only to the name of a project for 2018 designated as iPhone SE (2018).The message anticipates Apple's new strategy for labeling new models, or improved versions of the current ones, retaining the original name by adding the launch year. Instead of an iPhone SE 2 or iPhone X SE, it could be the product name with the generation year. Recently, the 9.7-inch iPad has earned the iPad designation (2018).According to Forbes journalist Gordon Kelly, an expert at "predicting" Apple's footsteps, the apple maker may be working on two "SE" models. The iPhone SE (2018) is expected to replace the low-end model of the catalog, featuring a 4-inch screen, in a design very similar to the previous version. On the other hand, a version of the iPhone X with a more accessible price (the equivalent of the iPhone X SE) with a screen of 6 inches could be released.The family will also be able to join the second generation iPhone X and the new iPhone X Plus, scheduled for the third quarter of the year.There are several voices about Apple's plans, which may just be distracting maneuvers from the company. Gordon Kelly also quotes a screen maker who says Apple is testing three glass prototypes for its new iPhone, though they all share the same features.It remains to be seen what are Apple's real plans for its 2018 catalog.
