Rumors about iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus have been circulating all over the web, and it seems like fans will finally get what they've always wanted in an Apple smartphone.
According to Design & Trend, the all new iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus are rumored to be stronger, thinner, and waterproof. One notable feature is that it may have an edge-to-edge screen.
The new phones will no longer have headphone jacks to make them thinner than the 7.1mm iPhone 6. Users can plug their headphone to the lightning port, or they can connect their wireless headphones using Bluetooth. This idea has been speculated by fans since 2012, and it might just happen for the new Apple Smartphones.
The design will also don a full-metal look. The phone could use the superior OLED screen, instead of the typical LCD. This speculation is based on the increased manufacturing of OLED by screen providers LG and Samsung.
Tech Times wrote that the new phones could be priced at around $1,000 to $2,000. This may be a steep price, but considering all the features and specs mentioned above, this could easily be worth it. The prices may vary on the memory size and in what country it is sold. There are reports that the actual release of the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus would be late September 2016.
USwitch reported that these new Apple devices will have rubberized gasket and materials that protects its internal components, making them waterproof. There are rumors that its water-resistant capabilities will be one of its major selling points. Apple takes it a little further with reports saying the phones could pump liquid out of its speaker grilles.
A waterproof iPhone would be a big relief for fans. It would be like an insurance policy.
Besides the iPhone 7s, there is news that Apple will release an iPhone 5 replacement called iPhone 6c or iPhone 7 mini, to still have 4-inch model smartphones.
