Man, there seems to be an awful lot of certainty in this thread regarding a topic that not one person is privy to actual, factual, information at this time.

Well Ming Chi Quo did give estimates that are probably pretty close to the actual price. He has been right most of the time.
We should start a pool. J/k
I’m going:
6.1” - $799
5.8” - $999
6.5” - $1099
I don’t trust Apple to be reasonably (reasonably for Apple) priced. If the 6.1 is $699, then I have a feeling it’s going to be a really basic phone compared to the OLED 5.8 and 6.5.
The 7/8 iPhones should still be around to be the “affordable iPhones” as has been Apple’s way for the past few years. Not sure if the 2017 X will truly be discontinued (as rumors say), but if not then it also would be a cheaper alternative to the 2018 OLEDs. I don’t see Apple going low with this year’s releases with older phones being available, but I’ll take being wrong if revealed costs turn out to be less. This is all just speculation at this point anyway.

I *highly* doubt that. Apple will likely reserve higher storages for the 5.8/6.5 OLED models simian to current X at 64 GB and 256GB. 32 GB should be phased out respectively due to how media/photo’s/videos are consuming large amounts of storage more than ever.
My take:
$699 - 64GB 6.1" LCD + $99 for 128GB
$849 - 64GB 5.8" OLED + $149 for 256GB
$999 - 64GB 6.5" OLED + $149 for 256GB
Additional take:
Colorful variants will be limited to the LCD models because they might use Aluminum+Glass (ala iPhone 8) to keep costs down & which is easy to paint.

Canada predictions anyone? I'm thinking minimum $1000 for the LCD, $1250 for the 5.8" and $1400 for the 6.5"
Probably the same 64 and 256 configs... there is always the possibility of a baller 512 edition
