Apple typically introduces new iPhones each September, and it looks like 2019 is shaping up to be no different.
Keeping with the pattern it followed 2017 and 2018, Apple is widely expected to debut three new iPhones in 2019. And it sounds like one of the biggest changes will be in the phones' camera, which is expected to get an upgrade to a triple lens system this year.
Apple's iPhone launches always draw massive attention from the press, consumers, and Wall Street, and that's bound to be the case more than ever in 2019 as the company grapples with falling iPhone sales. In its January earnings report, Apple revealed that iPhone revenue for the holiday quarter had fallen by 15% compared to the same quarter a year ago. Although other product areas are growing, such as its services business which recently reached an all-time high of $10.9 billion in revenue, the iPhone is still Apple's biggest money-maker.
Companies like Samsung and Huawei recently generated excitement with their new foldable phones, and many eyes will be on Apple come September to see if it can make a similar impression with its 2019 iPhone lineup.
Here's a look at what we're expecting to see in this year's iPhones, based on the reports and rumors that have surfaced so far.
