Apple planning three new iPhones this year - Report

Apple Inc. is planning to release three new iPhone models this year, including a device to succeed the newly-created XR model, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing unidentified people familiar with the matter.

Apple will include a high-end model in its line-up that features three cameras on its back, up from the current two, in addition to a pair of less expensive alternatives, the newspaper said. [Bloomberg]
 
One, possibly two, too many.
 
I'm sure they will release something awesome this time around, think they really got the message with the bad sales of the XS.
 
Why did they change from their standard way of numbering ?
Was there a reason of doing 8 and X?
And adding the R?

Went from eight to ten ‘cos the ten year anniversary of the iPhone.
 
Will wait till notch disappears and finger print reader returns..
 
Following the latest and greatest has become painful
 
And the S to the R?

S has always been the mid-term designation, 3G/3GS/4/4S/5/5S/6/6S/7/7S/8/X/XS.... Two exceptions being right at the start (iPhone/iPhone 3G) and the jump from the 8 to the X... The R is a new phone really, so a new naming convention.

I think someone’s pointed out, the three ‘19/‘20 phones will probably be the 11R, 11 and 11 Max
