The iPhone will be called the "iPhone XC," and it is expected that the larger OLED iPhone will be called "iPhone XS Max."
The post on Chinese social media coming Weibo was discovered by Macotakara. Allegedly, the image was reportedly taken during a China Mobile presentation discussing the new models, and some features.

Pricing in China is listed, with the OLED 5.8-inch "iPhone XS" retailing for 7388 Yuan ($ 1079), and the "iPhone XS Plus" selling for 8388 Yuan ($ 1225).
The LCD "iPhone XC" is said to retail for 5888 yuan, equivalent to $ 860. However, all of the prices include $ 1000 for the "iPhone XS Plus."
While not it has been said, the LCD model has been rumored to be available in different colors. Ming-Chi Kuo predicted in July that the device would ship in gray, white, blue, red, and orange case colors.
The last iPhone to use the "C" nomenclature was the iPhone 5c, which is a metal case and returned to plastic-st. It was made in blue, green, pink, yellow, and white.
The slide also suggests that the "iPhone XS" is available as a dual-sim device, launching a bit later than the rest of the line.
The provenance of the photo is unknown. Similar leaks from the carrier to Sunday's have been accurate, but are also incredibly easy to fake.
Apple's "Gather Round" event on Sept. 12 will be all the rumors to rest. Beyond a new iPhone, the event may see a refresh of the iPad Pro, and possibly new Macs.
