This Week in Tech: Finding Clarity on Apple's Next iPhone

More WTF moments are certainly possible. Nonetheless, with five months to go before an announcement, it looks like many of the 2017 iPhone rumors are starting to crystalize, including:

• iPhone Edition. The 10th anniversary iPhone is likely to get a unique name. Instead of “iPhone 8,” the new 5.8-inch handset will launch as “iPhone Edition.”
• A short delay. At least three new iPhones are coming in September. However, only the 4.7-inch “iPhone 7s” and 5.5-inch “iPhone 7s Plus” will arrive in stores that month. The iPhone Edition, meanwhile, won’t launch until October or November due to manufacturing issues.
• OLED. Two recent reports have confirmed news we’ve known for months. The iPhone Edition will be the first to feature an OLED display from Samsung.
• iOS 11. Apple has grown tired of apps not updated in a long time. As such, nearly 200,000 apps could be removed in the App Store once iOS 11 launches.

Take a look at our updated round-up to read the latest news on the 2017 iPhone lineup.

A quiet week in technology also included these headlines:

• The Long-Awaited YouTube TV Is Here – For Some Folks, Anyways
• Your HBO Subscription Cost Drops to Zero With AT&T Unlimited Plus
• Apple Working on a Premium TV Bundle With HBO, Showtime and Starz

Say Hello to Clips

As expected, the first week of April saw the arrival of Apple’s newest app, Clips. The universal app allows you to create entertaining media files that you can share across social media. Jeff Byrnes calls Clips a “next generation of iMovie because it’s not strictly about sharing videos.”
