One of the most anticipated releases in 2017 is inarguably the next flagship smartphone from the iconic iPhone series. No, iPhone 8 is not only much-awaited because it comes from one of the frontrunners in smartphone-making; it comes with a promise that the Cupertino-based firm is on all fours to wow its consumers as the upcoming iteration would serve as its 10th glorious year in the business.

Fans shouldn't fret anymore as the latest leaked iPhone 8 concept is proving that it is here to still beat the game. TechnoBuffalo has reported that a new concept of the forthcoming device has emerged, courtesy of Iskander Utebayev. Published by YouTube channel ConceptsiPhone, the image is showing it could go with a curved display.The channel has clearly taken its inspiration from the previous releases of Apple's fiercest competition, the curved displays from the latest roster of Samsung Galaxy.

In addition, the image showed that the unit might still keep its home button rather than embedding it under its screen.Another notable feature in iPhone 8 on the latest leak is its placement of the camera module beneath the Apple logo. For most iPhone aficionados, this ambitious aspiration might very well be not seeing its day.

Now, while this has been confirmed by Apple Inc. itself, the publisher has nevertheless made efforts to actualize the smartphone's long-standing speculations of a curved display. On the other hand, Utebayev's current rendition is deemed to be the most realistic of all the surfacing renders as of late. And as Apple might not go with some of these game-changing attributes, the company has lately been known to be taking some of these risky moves. Note: the ultimate removal of its traditional headphone jack. A move that received strong, mixed reactions.

Whether or not the the entire concept of Utebayev will be coming in iPhone 8's imminent launching, it is expected that Apple is now brewing on something transcendental. People just wouldn't want yet another iPhone 6 or iPhone 7 of some sort.
