The report also states that the next-generation 5.8-inch OLED device will use the same body as current iPhone X, but it will be came with a larger rear camera lens attributable to a bigger camera sensor. 

Moreover, the blog believed that the lower-cost iPhone with an LCD display and a bit smaller at six inches instead of 6.1-inch screen. It will feature Face ID as well, but rather have a single rear camera lens like the iPhone 8, which in line with former KGI analyst Kuo's prediction.
