The waiting game for that next iPhone coming to the shelves is something that all Apple fans love and the time between the news of launching a new phone and it being actually launched, gets filled with all types of notions, ideas and rumours about the new entrant.
iPhone 7 too doesn’t seem like an exception. Let’s look at some of the rumours (or are these just rumours?) doing the rounds nowadays.
A smaller 4-inch screen iPhone: There are reports that Apple may launch its iPhone series for 2016 in three different screen sizes. While the regular iPhone 7 will have a 4.7-inch and a 5.5-inch screen for iPhone 7 Plus.
Reports also claim that Apple is working on a smaller iPhone with a 4-inch screen which could be launched as early as March 2016. iPhone 7c, or iPhone 6c as it is being referred to, will also be waterproof. According to Chinese tech blog MyDrivers, the smaller iPhone will have 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage and a 1,642mAh battery.
New operating system iOS 9.3: This is more of confirmed news than a rumour that a new operating system is just around the block from the Apple software labs. The new OS will supposedly have Smart Education Upgrades, support for smart screen filtering and more matured 3D touch features.
It may also involve a feature called NightShift that would help change the background colour tone of the phone’s screen to aid comfortable reading and surfing experience.
No headphone jack: While this may not be like by one and all, but it seems Apple wants its users to go wireless. It is rumoured that the new iPhone won’t have a 3.5 mm headphone jack.
Reports say that Apple could go for headphones, which can be plugged into the Lightning charging port, or possibly a pair of more expensive Bluetooth headphones.
