If you want a smartphone with a triple-camera setup, Huawei's P20 Pro is currently your only option. And vy the looks of it, this won't change any time soon. . . at least not if you prefer to stick to Apple's iPhone over Android devices.
According to a report in the Taipei Times—which is citing a research note from Yuanta Securities analyst Jeff Pu—Apple is likely to launch a triple-camera iPhone model, but this won't happen before the second half of 2019.
Like on the Huawei, the third lens would likely provide a 3x optical zoom, improving zoom quality over the current top-models' 2x lenses. It's also fair to assume the triple-camera will be reserved for a flagship device, likely a third generation iPhone X that could launch around September of next year if Apple sticks to its usual launch schedule.
This scenario is supported by another previous report by former KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who ruled out any significant changes to Apple's current dual-camera system on the iPhone X and 8 Plus for the 2018 models.
