iPhone 9 leak? Case-maker teases the design of Apple’s next THREE smartphones
Looking forward to this year's iPhone line-up? Here's a possible early glimpse of the new designs...
GOOD news Apple fans, it's looking likely that we'll see three new iPhone models launching later this year.
A new leak teases differently-sized Apple handsets, all of which are tipped for a September debut.
We've been hearing from multiple sources that Apple is working on three iPhones for 2018.
And now a popular iPhone case-maker reckons it's definitely happening.
is now producing screen protectors for three handsets with screen sizes measuring 5.8 inches, 6.1 inches and 6.5 inches.
The case maker also showed off some designs for the screen protectors to phone accessory retailer .
Smartphone case makers have a reliable record for leaking phone designs long before the handsets are launched.
That's because accessory manufacturers often get insider information about smartphone designs before the general public.
This makes it possible for case makers to have stock ready for a smartphone launch – so new iPhone customers can pick up cases on release day.
Still, it's impossible to verify that Olixar's information is correct, so take its alleged iPhone designs with a pinch of salt.
It's worth noting that rumours of Apple launching three iPhones this year have been circulating for months.
Last year, Apple showed off the 4.7-inch iPhone 8, the 5.5-inch iPhone 8 Plus, and the 5.8-inch iPhone X.
But this year, Apple is expected to borrow the all-screen design of the iPhone X, and roll it out across all iPhone models.
That means the size of the screens can be boosted on this year's handsets, without having to grow the physical size of the phones too.

The good news is that while we'll likely see three iPhone X-style models, they won't all share the handset's lofty £999-£1,149 price tag.
Instead, analysts suggest that all three phones will price somewhere between £600 and £1,000.
GBH Insights Daniel Ives recently told The Sun that Apple would focus on the "sweet spot" of pricing this year, which he says is around £600 to £800.
He said Apple has been hurt by the "sticker shock" pricing of the iPhone X, and now wants to woo frustrated customers back with cheaper models.
