While we have a rough idea of how the iPhone 8 would look like, not much is leaked on the other two iPhone models until a few days ago. 

Chinese tipster 杨恩泽Eanling uploaded a photo of purported molds for the iPhone 8, 7s and iPhone 7s Plus. As molds are typically used by third party accessory makers to produce cases or dummy units, this photo should show the relative sizes of the three new iPhone models quite accurately. 

The mold of the iPhone 8 seems to confirm previous rumors of a vertical dual-camera layout, reduced bezels and a form factor which is slightly larger or somewhat similar to the 4.7-inch iPhone. The iPhone 7s is likely to retain a single camera module unlike the iPhone 7s Plus and iPhone 8.

KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo believes Apple would unveil three iPhone models this year. The iPhone 8, which is the premium model, will be the only one to have an OLED display. Although there are rumors of supply and technical issues in the production of the iPhone 8, Apple is still expected to unveil them in September with retail availability in October.
