Apple Accidentally Leaks Radical New iPhone X
as mentioned in After accidentally including details about its new iPhones in an iOS 12 beta release this week, new digging has found it wasn't Apple's only error…Sifting through the code of iOS 12 beta 5, 9to5Mac's meticulous Guilherme Rambo has found iconography within the software which provides Apple's first official confirmation that its massive iPhone X Plus exists. Apple's mistake was to include iconographic representations of the iPhone X Plus within iOS 12 beta 5′s PassKitUIFoundation, which is used for storing the iOS wallet user interface.

New iPhone Dummy Models On ShowThis week saw the team at 9to5Mac obtain dummy models of the 2018 iPhone line-up, including the 6.5 inch iPhone X Plus, the second generation iPhone X, and the 'budget' iPhone X that is expected to replace the iPhone 8. Moreover, the budget iPhone X will also offer a bezel-less design and potentially for less money than an iPhone 8. That means Apple will package the new iPhone X handsets with a USB-C to lightning charging cable. Perhaps surprisingly the lower-priced iPhone 8 topped the global sales, while the flagship iPhone X only managed third place. As for the iPhone X, it accounted for 2.3 percent of the global smartphone sale marketshare – making it the third best-selling smartphone during May of 2018.
