Another report speculates major delay in launch due to supply issues.

Over the past few months, reports have been claiming the iPhone 8 to be made of exotic materials and components, which could be difficult to manufacture on a large scale.

With September approaching, rumours surrounding the alleged iPhone 8 are intensifying. Various reports have zeroed in on an iPhone with slim bezels, a display mounted fingerprint scanner and a vertically mounted dual rear camera. While the world waits for Apple to introduce a revolutionary iPhone, a new report has emerged citing further delays in the next iPhone’s launch.

According to a Japanese website by the name of Macotakara, the world will have to wait for the iPhone 8 until the end of the next year, While it is hard to believe on a  report claiming such delays for a company like Apple, the possibilities for the authenticity of such a rumour could be true.

The iPhone 8 is supposed to mark the 10th anniversary of the iPhone as a product. Therefore, technology experts and Apple fanboys have been expecting a breakthrough product from the Cupertino giant to fight with the best smartphones from Samsung, LG and HTC. Over the past few months, reports have been claiming the iPhone 8 to be made of exotic materials and components, which could be difficult to manufacture on a large scale.

Rumours of a white iPhone have also been doing rounds of the Internet. The report claims that Apple considers making a white iPhone is not possible for the company to make, which is hard to believe as Apple already makes a white variant of the Apple Watch made of ceramic.

However, we must remember that we are talking about Apple, a company that has been responsible for revolutionising the smartphone industry. It might be highly possible that Apple could stomp over these rumours and unveils a new iPhone according to the expectations of its fans and tech critics. Stay tuned for further updates about any information about the iPhone 8.
