Apple is known for refraining from tinkering with the design of its handsets and maintaining a uniform design language across models. Unlike other smartphone makers, the company favours a more simplistic and seamless design.The iPhone 9 will follow the same trend. The device will borrow its design from the iPhone 8, one of the most elegantly crafted Apple phones ever, but feature a frosted glass back similar to that of iPhone 11 Pro. It is expected to be 0.5mm thicker than the iPhone 8, measuring just 7.8mm.

The Apple iPhone 9 is likely to feature a large 5.2-inch display. It will boast of an OLED panel with a display resolution of 750 x 1334 pixels and 294 PPI density.

So, you can expect a complete visual treat while watching all your favorite multimedia content. There are also rumors that iPhone 9 will feature Face ID facial recognition or a fingerprint scanner baked into the power button.
The iPhone camera has transformed over the years, from the single-lens set-up of previous phones (until 2016) to the triple-lens setup of the iPhone 11 series. However, the latest model will likely not feature a flagship-level camera setup. The handset is expected to house a 12MP single lens with f/1.8 aperture at the rear panel. However, you will get all the latest features like digital zoom, face detection, simultaneous HD video and image recording, touch to focus, exposure compensation, ISO control and more. The camera system will also have modes like continuous shooting, high dynamic range mode (HDR) and burst mode. It will record 1080p videos at 30 frames per second. For selfies, the iPhone 9 may borrow its 7MP camera from the iPhone 8.
This is the department where the iPhone 9 is going to make an impact. The smartphone is likely to be powered by Apple’s A13 Bionic CPU, touted to be the fastest processor ever. The A13 chip made its debut in the iPhone 11 series last year, offering a superior and lag-free experience. Additionally, it will come with 3GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage. So, you can expect great performance from the iPhone 9 and also regular software updates for up to five years.
On the battery front, the iPhone 9 may come with a moderate 2050 mAh battery with fast charging support.
