Apple is likely to introduce the (PRODUCT)RED edition of iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus. With this possible launch, Apple will be continuing its partnership with (PRODUCT)RED, an advocacy group dedicated to combating HIV/AIDS in Africa.
As per the report, the new red iPhones will be announced and will be up for preorders later today. It’s not known if they will available immediately for purchase or begin shipping later in April. There is no mention of a red colour variant of the iPhone X in the memo.
The iPhone 8 and 8 Plus were launched on September 29 last year alongside the iPhone X, on the company’s tenth anniversary of the iPhone. The iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus feature 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch Retina HD displays respectively, same as their predecessors. However, the new iPhones sport a True Tone display, which the company says adjusts the white balance as per ambient lighting and also supports a wider color gamut. Both handsets are powered by Apple's A11 Bionic chipset, which comes with a dedicated Neural engine.
In the camera department, the iPhone 8 features a single 12MP rear camera with f/1.8 aperture, whereas the iPhone 8 Plus is equipped with a 12MP dual rear camera setup with a wide-angle lens featuring f/1.8 aperture and another f/2.8 telephoto lens. The two models support OIS, feature new quad LED true tone flash and come with a 7MP sensor with retina flash at the front. The iPhone 8 and 8 Plus come with a glass rear, which enables wireless charging and are also IP67 dust and water resistant.
There is also a new rumor that Apple could unveil a Blush Gold variant of the iPhone X and maybe it will be announced alongside the RED edition iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus. Benjamin Geskin, a designer had previously posted an image comparing the SIM card tray of Blush Gold color variant of the device with other color options. Renowned Apple analyst Ming Chi Kuo had also previously noted that the company is working on a new Blush Gold variant, but its production is being pushed back due to supply issues.
