The leaked image of the front panel of the iPhone 8 suggests that the display may cover almost the entire front of the phone, and has a cutout for the front camera and earpiece

Apple is expected to introduce three new iPhones including one completely redesigned model in September this year. While there have been multiple leaks about the upcoming smartphones, a new leak on Reddit shows us the design of the rear panel of all three smartphones. Citing a friend in the industry as a source, the Redditor hs posted two pictures showing the design of the rear panel in all three phones. These leaked images lineup with some of the previous rumours related to Apple's upcoming iPhones. According to the Redditor, all of these upcothe leaming devices will feature a glass rear panel and support wireless charging.

The front panel of Apple iPhone 8 seems to sport a top-to-bottom glass display, with a cut-out for the front camera and earpiece. The rear glass reveals the vertically mounted dual camera setup with the LED flash placed between the sensors and some regulatory information. There is no sign of a Touch ID sensor, further confirming that Apple will either drop the fingerprint sensor or embed it under the display.

The panels of the iPhone 7s and iPhone 7s Plus further suggest that the devices will sport a design similar to its predecessors. KGI Securities' Ming-Chi Kuo had earlier predicted that iPhone 7s and 7s Plus will only feature aluminium unibody design, but the new leak hints at Apple may opt for a glass rear panel for all its upcming iPhones.
