In fact, the new model will be slightly bigger than its predecessor in all dimensions.

Every time I see these new colours, they get more and more ugly.

Here's an exclusive leak from the script for the presentation:

"Apple is proud to once again be the forerunner of innovation, and thus present two superbly tuned colors to replace the old ones:

The first one, and certainly the best color we've ever brought out so far, is...

Diarrhoea brown, to replace gold!
*thundering applause*

I thought long and hard about this new color, and finally, I had a relevation. It was when I had a dinner at a Mexican restaurant and had a good portion of that super-spicy chili bowl. As a consequence, I frequently had to visit the toilet afterwards, and one time, while turning around to flush the toilet, I glanced down at the toilet bowl, and there it was... it was a thing of pure beauty! I immediately realized I had found the new color I had thought about that much.
I'm absolutely sure that you will love this awesome new color, this fabulous Diarrhoe brown, as much a I and everyone at Apple does!

The second one is just some fine tuning of an already existing color, but it's a clear improvement nonetheless:

Dirt grey, to replace Space grey!
*thundering applause*

As our Space grey has been imitated countless times by pretty much everyone, we wanted to liven it up with a new and totally exciting variant, and so we finally arrived at this absolutely awesome Dirt grey! Once again, I'm totally sure you'll love it as much as I and everyone at Apple does!"

        Why can't they make a thin phone like Mate 9, it has the same size and weight as 7Plus but bigger screen, bigger battery, 4mics, powerful speaker and 16:9 ratio.

            Trump Fan 1980, 16 Aug 2017 Obviously, this Fall's Apple handset lineup includes a sma... moreI can really imagine that. But next year, there will be a standard and a Pro version, like with many other Apple products (iPad, iMac, MacBook)

            iPhone (probably iPhone 7 design, A12 and single camera with old 7s design, low price tag, the smallest in screen size)
            iPhone Pro 5.x (5.x for size, newest and latest tech, flagship)
            iPhone Pro 6.x (big flagship)

            We had something like that with iPhone SE, 6s and 6s Plus or SE, 7 and 7 Plus
            It is the same with iPad (9.7), iPad Pro 10.5, iPad Pro 12.9
            and MacBook (12), MacBook Pro 13, MacBook Pro 15
            iMac is still not like that though, but the Pro will just start in Fall or Winter, like the iPhones

                              Obviously, this Fall's Apple handset lineup includes a small, medium, and large/extra large line up (size wise). What isn't exactly clear yet (at least to me), is, whether or not they each will have the chipset(s).

                                        iPhone 8 dummy has 9.1mm. More expensive phone will require thicker case.
