After iPhone 6 the Apple introduces some iPhone 7 features:
Apple Inc. will be working hard on its next rival, the iPhone 7. The iPhone release is always the highlight of any tech year, and the latest model of this iconic range will be no exception to this rule. Although some publications have suggested that Apple might decide to call this smartphone the iPhone 6s, in line with previous releases such as the iPhone 5s, it seems more likely that the consumer electronics giant will brand the next iPhone device as an entirely new series.
Apple in these terms considering the massive commercial success that the corporation achieved in 2014. Not only did Apple become the world’s first company to achieve a $700 billion market capitalization, but it also recorded the largest single-quarter profit in recorded business history. And to put the cherry on the cake of these achievements, Gartner Inc. recently announced that Apple is now selling more mobile devices in volume than Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.
Some iPhone 7 models:
The first rumour related to the iPhone 7 is one that has been doing the rounds for a while, namely that Apple will release a third variant of the iPhone 7 which is significantly smaller than the two main handsets. This is particularly seen as being an Apple Watch tie-in, although obviously this purported handset was not announced in conjunction with the release of the Apple smartwatch.

However, another possible iPhone model has also been mooted. It is suggested that Apple will release multiple versions of the iPhone 7, and that one will be targeted specifically emerging markets in Asia and Latin America. This would be likely to be a cheaper version of the iPhone 7, and distinct from other models targeted at other geographical regions.
Rumors are that iPhone 7 available with iOs 8 but it get also updated on iOs 9.
Features of iPhone 7:
Sidewall Displays
Apple has a design for something called a “sidewall display” and may be gearing up to use this technology on phones. We’ve already seen something very similar to a sidewall when it comes to phones in the Galaxy Note Edge, which includes a small edge screen that can show the time, pop up notifications, and let you get a glimpse of text messages with the need to open any covers or go past the lock screen. This would be one of the biggest new features of an iPhone, and it would be great to see what Apple could do with a sidewall display and a little creativity.
Increased storage capacity
It is already strongly rumored that Apple will significantly increase the storage capacity of the iPhone 7 when it launches around September time. There are murmurings that there will be a 256GB version of the smartphone when it hits the stores, and this would be very much in line with offering increasingly high-definition content, which can then be stored on the handset.
It is possible as well that the lowest memory storage model of the iPhone 7 will increase as well. Although producing affordable devices is a consideration for every manufacturer, the amount of memory taken up by modern applications and videos really necessitates large amounts of memory.
More RAM
The combination of Apple’s proprietary software and the fact that the consumer electronics giant is one of the few mobile manufacturers to produce both software and hardware for its mobile devices has always ensured that the iPhone series runs extremely niftily. However, it has never been over-endowed in the RAM department, certainly in comparison with other major smartphones available on the market. This could see Apple double the RAM in the iPhone 7, from the 1 GB included in the iPhone 6, to 2 GB. The performance improvements offered by this could be considerable.
Apple Wireless Charging
Wireless charging already exists in many pads and sleeves on the market, but there’s not an Apple wireless charging solution built into the phone…yet. Apple may or may not be working on wireless charging, depending on what rumors you believe. However, with the rise of wireless charging devices, it seems likely that Apple will want to jump on this train sooner rather than later. The iPhone 7 may well be optimized for inductive charging and released alongside an Apple wireless charging device for some great cross sales.
HD and QHD displays
Apple has lagged behind its major competitor Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. In terms of the quality of displays in the iPhone series, and the next generation iPhone 7 could offer the company the opportunity to produce its first HD smartphone and Qhd phablet.
DSLR-Quality Camera
There are several exciting possibilities for the next-gen iPhone camera. It could offer a two-lens system to massively boost the quality of images and potential for photo apps and settings. It could offer 4K video capture 21-megapixel photos. It may even offer a lens-swap option that lets you replace the lens with new version in real DSLR fashion (expect on a teeny-tiny scale). Whichever way Apple goes, it would be great to see a massive improvement in the camera and its picture taking options. It’s a selfie, selfie, selfie world out there, and Apple should capitalize on it.
Souped-up camera
The iPhone 6 camera was well received, and Apple has always delivered devices that are capable takers of photographs. But the rear-facing snapper in the iPhone 6 was not powerful in megapixel terms, and there are already rumors floating around that Apple will focus on significantly improving the specifications of the lens in the next iPhone release.
With this in mind, there are murmurings that the iPhone 7 could feature a 21-megapixel camera. This would be an absolutely massive improvement on the iPhone 6, and wouldeven slightly outrank the presumed megapixel rating of the forthcoming Samsung Galaxy S6.
Whether or not this is realistic is debatable, but we could see the iPhone 7 featuring the first ultra-powerful camera in its history. There have also been analyst rumors that Apple will somehow incorporate Digital Single Lens Reflex (DSLR) Technology into the iPhone 7, which would seemingly enable the smartphone to produce professional quality photographs. This seems pretty unfeasible, but is a rumor to heed as iPhone 7 leaks develop.
Dual-lens or periscope camera
Apple is also expected to greatly improve the photograph taking capabilities of the iPhone 7 when it is finally unveiled. With this in mind, it has been suggested that Apple will produce a dual-lens camera which produces photographic quality pictures. A new patent filing suggests that Apple’s future products may feature a revolutionary periscope camera, and that the iPhone 7 may be the device that debuts this.
Quad HD / 4K resolution
Finally, Apple is expected to significantly improve the resolution of the iPhone 7 display. With the corporation having recently released the world’s first 5K resolution desktop, It is even possible that we might see a 4K iPhone 7 Plus phablet. At the very least, we should see a quad HD iPhone 7 Plus, and a full HD iPhone 7 smartphone.
A9 processor
The iPhone 7 will need more juice in the tank in processing terms, and this is almost certain to result in a new A9 processor being at the heart of the device. There have already been reports that Samsung is working on the production of chips for the next generation iPhone, although there are currently conflicting media reports on this subject.
Sapphire Glass
The biggest rumor which turned out to be a red herring with regard to the iPhone 6 was the idea that Apple would significantly include Sapphire Glass in its production. The reason for this belief, and the ethos behind it, were both clear. Apple has ordered vast amounts of Sapphire Glass to utilize within its production line on at least one product, but it is as yet unclear as to when and on what this will be used. Certainly Apple opted against including it in the iPhone 6, but it could also reverse this decision for the next generation iPhone.
The logic behind this is that the durability of the iPhone series has been criticized in some quarters, and Sapphire Glass is thought to provide a more scratchproof surface than the Gorilla Glass which is utilized currently. Whether this will come to fruition this time out remains to be seen, but given the industrial quantities of this substance which Apple has definitely purchased, it seems pretty certain that it will feature in the iPhone at some point.
Projector:
According to the rumors, iPhone 7 is expected to have an in-built projector. This is not going to be the only phone to flaunt this feature as Samsung Galaxy Beam has a built-in projector that enables larger viewing experience via phone. But as we all know, Samsung follows in the footsteps on Apple and it has never been the other way around. May be, Apple would teach Samsung a lesson or two on how to incorporate a new technology! If this rumor comes true, most of users who work at corporate houses and use projectors for PowerPoint presentation would rush to buy it.
More Power
Obviously we can expect an Apple processor upgrade. Each new generation of the iPhone has added a very respectable increase to power and speed capabilities thanks to a new chip, and the iPhone 7 certainly won’t be an exception. There are rumors that the new chip will be 20% more powerful and 35% more efficient than anything seen in the iPhone 6. Other rumors state that there will be around 2GB of RAM in the 7 to help you manage all the latest apps.
Unlocked NFC
This is an important one. Currently Apple does indeed use an NFC (near field communication) chip in its iPhone, but the chip is locked to only work with Apple Pay. It’s a strange decision, because NFC can be used for a ton of exciting activities by businesses and developers alike, allowing you to communicate at a distance with many different objects and devices. In a bid to expand the Internet of Things and iPhone compatibility, it would be great to see Apple unlock NFC for the iPhone7s.
iPhone 7 Price
Given its power-packed processor, innovative apps, best ever under-the-hood specs and crisper display, iPhone 7 is going to be costlier than all of its older siblings. On an average, you may end up shelling anywhere between $649 and $849 to own this piece of technological beauty. We are completely clueless whether this pricing include a contract fee or not. However, as Android smartphone market is aggressively taking control of world mobile phone market, we can expect from the California-based company to keep the prices competitive enough to lure the larger segment as well as present an attractive buying proposition to fence sitters.
The height of speculations can go to a pretty crazy point with Apple. Also, we all know that the company always remains tight-lipped about its upcoming devices and software updates, to the level that it signs a MOU with the employees who are testing these.
Only a few devices go outside the company’s premise for real-time testing and the employees, who are chosen to do this, are kept on a tight leash but that does not stop the rumor mills and never going to curb the debate over the features of iPhone 7. Until the time, Apple announces the release date and price for the much-coveted Apple flagship, we must have to agree on the point that iPhone 7 is going to be lighter, smarter, bigger and of course an intuitive smartphone than its predecessors. Meanwhile, let us all wait to get the first glimpse of Apple iPhone 7 with bated breath!
Likely to be called the iPhone 7, the 2016 model might be available in multiple versions, with one targeted specifically “to emerging markets in Asia and Latin America.” That’s the exact wording used by the publication to describe the device, which will supposedly have an Intel modem chip inside.
While VentureBeat’s report details how important it is for Intel to have a presence in Apple’s iPhone, noting that the Intel 7360 LTE modem chip can deliver speeds of up to 450 megabits per second, supporting Category 9/10 LTE and 3X carrier aggregation, the most interesting tidbit of information offered by the publication regards iPhone differentiation.
It’s not clear whether emerging markets in Asia and Latin America will get a cheaper iPhone 7, or the same iPhone 7 every other market will receive, with the sole distinction being LTE modem choice. But the publication does say it’ll be a “special” version.
Apple has yet to launch new low-cost iPhone models alongside flagship devices. Instead of taking this approach, Apple has always kept older iPhones in its lineup and sold them at cheaper prices. Not even the iPhone 5c was the affordable iPhone many people thought it would be.
With Intel modems, Apple might simply be looking for a second supplier of LTE chips for the iPhone, not only to ensure it has enough components to meet huge demand, but also to put pressure on Qualcomm, the sole provider of LTE modems for iPhones, and an “uneasy relationship for Apple.”
“Second sourcing [finding a second supplier for] a major component might give Apple the upper hand in the relationship,” one source told VentureBeat.
Other details about this distant iPhone 7 haven’t yet been revealed.
The smartphone is expected to feature the same sculpted aluminium body, and to be available in the same white, space grey and gold colour options. There's also talk that the iPhone 7 will be available in pink, but we'd take this with a pinch of salt.
While the design is unlikely to change much, rumours suggest that Apple might opt for a scratch-proof sapphire display in the next-generation iPhone, such as that found on the Apple Watch.
Production problems reportedly prevented the iPhone 6 launching with a sapphire screen, but speculation claims that Apple has teamed with Foxconn to get the tough displays ready in time.
In terms of screen size, there's talk that Apple will release multiple variations of the iPhone next year, one with a 4.7in screen and one with a 5.5in screen. Some rumours claim that Apple will also release a smaller 4in model aimed at customers with small hands.
Separate rumours via Patently Apple claim that the firm could follow in the footsteps of the Galaxy S6 Edge by adding a curved display.
The Wall Street Journal (paywalled) reports that the display on the iPhone 7, curved or not, will feature the same Force Touch technology introduced in Apple's first 12in MacBook, enabling a touch-sensitive surface to register degrees of pressure as well as movement.
This screen is also likely to show off Apple's next-generation iOS release, iOS 9. This is expected to debut at Apple's WWDC conference in June, but won't be that exciting, according to a report on 9to5Mac, as it will focus on bug fixes and stability improvements rather than new features.
Despite this, there is talk that iOS 9 will feature an overhauled Maps service, and a split-screen mode for iPad users. We can also assume it will include the Apple Watch app that debuted alongside iOS 8.2, allowing users to pair and sync the wearable with the smartphone.
According to rumours, Samsung has fought off rivals including TSMC to provide the main chip for the next iPhone. Sources in the semiconductor industry claim that Samsung will supply the A9 application processor for the iPhone 7.
This will be paired with 2GB RAM, according to a report from Technews.tw, the same as inside the iPad Air.
In terms of storage, the iPhone 7 is likely to be available in the same 16GB, 64GB and 128GB variations as its predecessor.
It's been reported by Daring Fireball's John Gruber that the next iPhone will have "the biggest camera jump ever", featuring a two-lens system which apparently brings it up to digital SLR quality. He suggested that Apple might opt for Sony's new 21MP image sensor, the Exmoor RS.
Beyond that, we don't know much about the iPhone 7 yet, although some speculate that it might be the first iPhone to launch with wireless charging.
According to the report, this would make way for new applications such as "a piano-playing app that would make different sounds when touched lightly or more heavily".

Rumours
Speculation suggests, as does Apple's typical two-year cycle, that the iPhone 7 won't look much different to its iPhone 6 and 6 Plus predecessors.The smartphone is expected to feature the same sculpted aluminium body, and to be available in the same white, space grey and gold colour options. There's also talk that the iPhone 7 will be available in pink, but we'd take this with a pinch of salt.

About Release date
If Apple sticks to its traditions, we can expect the iPhone 7 to arrive in mid-September 2015. The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus were unveiled on 9 September 2014 (and released to the public on 19 September); theiPhone 5c and iPhone 5s were unveiled on 10 September 2013; theiPhone 5 was unveiled on 12 September.
so we expect that iPhone 7 can be launched around mid-september.
