Data reveals the iPhone 8 won't be that popular. Slice Intelligence reports pre-orders for the iPhone 8 are down 78-percent compared to iPhone 7.
One review called the iPhone 8 a fairly straightforward update of the iPhone 7.
Apple is also releasing its newest version of Apple TV, and the Apple Watch Series 3.
The big lines are expected for the iPhone 10, which will be released to the public on November 3.
