The screen appears to be the biggest talking point from the iPhone 8 leaks so far and it's alleged that Apple will be giving the new handset a curved OLED screen, replacing the LED screens that are currently used.

This is something that Apple's competitors have been using for a little while now and it seems the tech giants agree that it is the way forward with smartphone screens.

OLED screens provide users with more vivid colours as well as allowing Apple to make thinner handsets and more power efficiency. There is also talk that the iPhone's home button and finger print scanner will be fitted into the screen display too.

According to reports, suppliers have been stocking up on the components needed for these OLED screens in the expectation that the iPhone 8 will embrace this technology.

But the screen isn't the only potential new upgrade to the phone's hardware. It's also expected that the new iPhone will include wireless charging and the ability to take ultra-HD pictures with its camera - literally so exciting!

There is still a while until the iPhone is expected to be released, but we're already sitting on the edge of our seat waiting for more news about this seriously exciting new bit of tech.
