He also said that TrueDepth will eventually go to the rear camera, not just now. This technology is still in its infancy, and there are many problems with supply and production. Kuo believes that Apple still has a lot of work to do to expand the AR and ARKit ecosystem because of its augmented reality function will be one of the main reasons why they use TrueDepth.

We don't know much about Apple's plan for next year but there have been many rumors. A source said that Apple is preparing for two 5.28-inch and 6.46-inch OLED display phones, considered to complement the upcoming 5.8-inch iPhone X.

On the supply side, it is possible that LG will provide battery for iPhone 2018 and OLED screen and the chip is expected to come from Samsung. The new iPhone generation probably won't use Qualcomm chips because Apple is testing chips from Intel and MediaTek, and also due to legal noise with Qualcomm.

As usual, Apple did not comment on rumors and kept its plans confidential.
