Is THIS the iPhone 8? Apple’s next smartphone looks incredibly sleek in leaked renders

Accessory makers are sometimes given a sneak peek at new smartphones before they’re revealed to the public.

And if not, they can sometimes be given dimensions for mocking up their own renders .

This means they can design cases that will be available to buy the minute the new gadget becomes available.

Now one case maker has leaked what are believed to be renders of Apple’s hugely-anticipated iPhone 8 .

Posted on the SlashLeaks tech website , the pictures give us an even better idea of what to expect when the phone is revealed later this year.

The sleek device appears to echo the Samsung Galaxy S8 in making the display cover as much of the front as possible. However, it doesn’t appear to curve around the edges of the handset in the same way as Samsung’s phone.

According to the pictures, the famous circular Apple homescreen button has been moved onto the screen itself. There are unconfirmed rumours that Apple may have embedded the TouchID fingerprint scanner into the screen for the iPhone 8 .

These new pictures also seem to confirm the rumour that Apple will be moving the dual-lenses from running horizontally across the back to vertically when the phone is in portrait mode.
