There's been lots of Apple gossip surround the new phones.

Rumours suggest there’s no chance of the iPhone 8 arriving before 2018.

But many are determined that it will be revealed in September, similar to every year that's gone before.

There's hints that it might look more like a Samsung phone, with a curved back.

As always, Apple has been tight-lipped about its gadgets, but it recently revealed that iPhone sales had dropped.

But it wasn't all bad, their Watch sales appeared to hit an all-time high, making them the second largest watchmakers in the world.
