Apple's much awaited iPhone 7 is expected to be released on Sept. 16, 2016, according to Business Insider. Although Apple did not formally announced the launch date as of yet, one thing is for sure: iPhone 7 is currently on mass production.
Many factories in Asia are producing the parts and testing what the company could reveal for iPhone 7 in a matter of weeks. There is a group of Chinese leakers that posted photos and videos of what iPhone 7 fully looks like. The photos and video were posted in a Chinese social media account called GeekBar.
So, if the photos of the iPhone 7 were real, we would be expecting a bigger camera that could boost low-light performance. However, the leaked photos did not feature a headphone port as it has been replaced by a second speaker. Its design, on the other hand, looks fairly similar to the current iPhone 6S with a few cosmetic differences, like its antenna lines.
iPhone 7 may also have a 256 GB variant. Aside from that, reports suggest that it will feature a new home button and a new color, which is probably deep black. The iPhone 6s may have been a huge hit for the technology giant, but it didn't change much when it comes to design.
In other news, both Samsung and LG have embraced curvy screens with the LG G Flex 2 and the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge respectively. But, most probably, Apple will not follow the trend and apply it to iPhone 7 because Apple previously had problem with bending phones.
According to a report in Mirror, iPhone 7 might have dual lens camera. The dual lens camera will allow iPhone 7 users to snap SLR quality photos to 3D images on a smartphone.
Moreover, the iPhone 7 could also be water proof, as stated in the report. Reports say Apple is working on a new compound material that repels water. This suggests that the body of the iPhone 7 will not be made of metal at all, but of other material that allows radio waves to pass through it.
