Apple plans to launch two 6.1-inch iPhones,Jin Seo one of which will be a dual-SIM phone, a first for Apple.
This is according to reliable leaker of all things Apple, Ming-Chi Kuo (via MacRumors), who says the dual-SIM, 6.1-inch variant of the phone could be priced at $650 to $750, while the single SIM model will cost $550 to $650.

Although Kuo's track record is excellent, I would be surprised if Apple priced a dual-SIM model a hundred bucks more than an otherwise identical single SIM model. Dual-SIM phones are popular in developing markets, including countries in Africa, South America and parts of Asia and aren't typically more expensive than their single SIM counterparts.
But that's not all. According to Kuo, Apple's phone lineup will get a lot more complicated this year, as the company will also launch a 5.8-inch OLED phone (a direct iPhone X successor that will only come as a single SIM variant) and what would be Apple's biggest iPhone yet -- a huge, 6.5-inch OLED phone (which will also be available with a dual-SIM option).
The OLED phones will very likely be significantly more expensive than the LCD models.
Adding a dual-SIM option for the 6.1-inch phone will mean that the production on that model will start three to five weeks later than the OLED models, though with the launch still being far away (likely in September), who knows what may happen between now and then.
