It is expected that the company will launch iPhone 7S, iPhone 7S Plus and the anniversary edition iPhone 8 at the event.
Bloomberg recently compiled all the 'new' features that are coming to the iPhone 8.
According to the list the Apple iPhone 8 will feature a 3D facial recognition sensor on top at the front for unlocking the device and make secure payments. There will also be an infrared sensor that will let users unlock the device using face recognition even in low light situations. Besides these two sensors will be a 'Smart' camera with improved scene and object detection.
The smartphone is said to feature inductive charging, something that has been in rumours from quite some time. As seen in the leaks, the report says the iPhone 8 will feature a longer power button on the side.
The device might also sport a near bezel-less display with better aspect ratio. Users will be able to tap on the screen to wake the handset, a functionality widely used in majority of the Android smartphones. The extended display will also include a virtual home button, which will be replacing the Touch ID button seen in other iPhone models.
