Possible 'iPhone 8' SIM Tool Packaging is Consistent With Rumors of Narrow Bezels and Front Camera Notch

by

A new picture of an alleged packaging insert for the so-called iPhone 8's SIM-eject tool has been shared on Chinese microblogging service Sina Weibo. The image was then submitted to leak aggregator Slashleaks today.

The insert includes a generic diagram of what is supposedly the iPhone 8. If legitimate, the smartphone's design is consistent with rumors, which suggest it'll be almost entirely screen on the front, beyond narrow, uniform bezels along the edges and a tiny notch for the front camera and sensors.

It's almost August, when mass production of Apple's next iPhones would normally be underway, ahead of their usual September launch. However, recent reports suggest the iPhone 8 may be running several weeks behind. Some analysts believe the device may not begin shipping whatsoever until at least October.

Longer power button on the side, but still opposite the volume buttons. So here's to a continued future of changing the volume when trying to lock the screen. :eek:

the speaker looks like it's not centered? i call fake.
It's only a visual effect due to the position of the facetime camera. The power button is really big!

In 2013, one of these paperwork leaked the 5s' Touch ID sensor. I call legit.

SO very bothered we still think that a phone launched next to the iPhone 7s will be called iPhone 8. 1) What marketing sense would that make? 2) the naming convention the rest of the line-up clearly predicts:

It's going to be called iPhone Pro!

Didn't they stop giving SIM tools with the phone? Are they going to start again?
I'm not sure about the US, but in Canada we've always had sim ejector tools included.

The rippling in the paper leads me to believe it’s standard letter paper that’s been printed out.

*edit* just looked at my 7 plus ejector page, and it’s on card stock with rounded edges.

I say this is just a fake print out.
