The renders tie in with the other rumours we've heard about the iPhone 8.

Renders showing the iPhone 7, iPhone 8, and iPhone 7 Plus.

It's looking more like the iPhone 8 will be bigger in size than the iPhone 7, but smaller than the iPhone 7 Plus.

That's according to fresh renders from persistent Apple leaker Benjamin Geskin.

Geskin created some mock-up designs of the iPhone 8, based on leaked dimensions for the new iPhone. He claims to have factory worker sources with knowledge of Apple's designs.

His designs compare the iPhone 7, iPhone 8, and iPhone 7 Plus side by side. He originally created them for iDrop News, and has shared his designs with Business Insider.

Here are the three phones compared, with the iPhone 8 in the middle:

A few things stand out here. You can see the iPhone 8 looks slightly bigger than the iPhone 7 in every respect — it's taller, wider, and thicker. According to iDrop News, the iPhone 8's dimensions are 143.59 x 70.94 x 7.57 mm versus the iPhone 7 at 138.3 x 67.1 x 7.1 mm. The iPhone 7 Plus comes in at158.2 x 77.9 x 7.3 mm.

Geskin's renders tie in with lots of other rumours, but none of it's confirmed. Case makers have been mocking up iPhone 8 models and covers based on leaked CAD designs, most of which point to a slightly bigger phone.

There are a few other previously rumoured features you can see on Geskin's designs.
