Apple iPhone 8 to Feature Reinforced Glass Back, Stainless Steel Frame

Apple is expected to announce three iPhones this year and a new supply-chain report says talks about the materials used in the new phones. According to Digitimes, Apple will unveil a 4.7-inch, 5.5-inch and 5.8-inch iPhone.

The report mentions that the high-end 5.5-inch model will feature a chassis made out of reinforced glass with stainless steel metal frame, as opposed to the 4.7-inch model which will have the aluminum-alloy chassis, found on the iPhone 7 and a number of other Apple products, including Apple Watch.

It seems that the report doesn’t say anything about the materials in the 5.5-inch model’s chassis. The reinforced glass chassis’ stainless steel metal frame for the 4.7-inch model will be supplied by Foxconn Technology and US-based Jabil Circuit. The former is one of Apple’s supplier for all sorts of materials for iPhones.
