Forbes has published new iPhone 8 renders. It is worth looking at some detail....

Graphics were developed by Gordon Kelly, using CAD drawings from Apple's "supplier chain." The image of the phone largely corresponds to what we know from the previously published graphics. We have a big screen, covering almost the entire front of the phone, but with distinctive indentation on the top, which holds the handset's speaker, front camera and sensors. The back also looks familiar - you can see the protruding double lens camera mounted vertically, you can also notice the antenna lines and the position of the buttons.

And here we find a curiosity. The switch key is definitely bigger than in previous models. The explanation can be simple: a fingerprint scanner will be installed in the button. As we know, Apple has a problem with the improvement of the fingerprint reader mounted below the surface of the screen. It may not be possible to bring this solution to a satisfactory level before the launch of the iPhone 8. So there will be needed a "B" plan - and the key reader may be the result of this plan. Of course, we still have to take into account that information on this subject is unofficial, and even if Apple takes that into account, it does not need to be included in the final product. Time will tell if Gordon Kelly is right ...
