In 2016, Apple will most certainly treat us to the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus,
the next highly-anticipated page in its smartphone book. Rumors are
already shaping up a believable picture of what the next iOS flagships
will be. At this point, we are not expecting an exterior redesign -
reportedly, this is reserved for 2017, when the Apple iPhone 8 will
reportedly get unveiled (yep, it might not be an "s" year). Yet, we are
hopeful some intriguing new features will be making the cut this year!
- Design: At this point, we suppose the iPhone 7 will not introduce a major redesign, but will be mostly similar to the iPhone 6/6s. It could be a waterproof device with Touch ID embedded into the display, no 3.5mm audio jack, and possibly a Smart Connector port.
- Hardware: The device will most certainly arrive with a 16nm Apple A10 chipset, manufactured by both TSMC and Samsung. We expect 2GB of RAM inside the iPhone 7, while the iPhone 7 Plus/Pro is said to sport 3GB of RAM for improved camera performance.
- Display: Display size and resolution are likely to remain the same. 3D Touch might score multi-touch support. IPS LCD displays are likely to stick around for another year.
- Camera: We expect the iPhone 7 to sport similar camera setups as the 6s/6s Plus (a 12MP iSight camera at the back and a 5MP FaceTime snapper up front) while the iPhone 7 Plus/Pro is rumored to arrive with a dual-lens camera.
- Release date and pricing: We are gearing for an early September 2016 announcement while the actual release of the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus/Pro will most likely take place in late September 2016.
