INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
The iPhone 8 Plus has just a 5.5-inch screen, yet according to a new report the rumored iPhone XI Plus could pack a 6.5-inch screen into a
body of the same size.That’s according to a ‘reliable supplier information source’ speaking to Macotakara, which adds that the only
size difference could be the thickness, as due to changes to the rear camera the iPhone XI Plus might be 0.2mm thicker
That would make the dimensions 158.4 x 78.1 x 7.7mm.It’s a believable change, since the iPhone XI Plus will have far smaller bezels than
the iPhone 8 Plus, though as this is just a rumor we’d still take it with a pinch of salt.A mock-up of what the iPhone XI Plus might look
like compared to the iPhone 8 Plus can be seen below, though to our eyes the upcoming phone still looks larger.An iPhone XI Plus next to an

model that’s been rumored to be launching with an LCD display will have a 6.0-inch screen, rather than the previously rumored 6.1-inch one
It will also apparently have just one rear camera, but will use TrueDepth for Face ID with its front-facing camera, which is a rumor we’ve
heard before.You can see that handset – which might be called the iPhone 9 - pictured alongside the iPhone X in another mock-up.And
there’s news about the standard 5.8-inch iPhone XI as well, with the source claiming that this will use the same casing as the iPhone X,
but will have a larger camera sensor and lens, which may mean they’re improved.Finally, the source says that with iOS 12 you’ll be able
to use Face ID even if your phone is in landscape orientation, where currently it has to be held in portrait
That’s a change that will presumably apply to the iPhone X, so you won’t have to buy new hardware to get it
Again though, nothing is confirmed until it’s confirmed, so we’ll have to wait and see.Via 9to5MacFZbxHXJNLWuH6BpPDWmPmW.jpg#
