The iPhone 7 is expected to be released on the later part of 2016, although Apple has not yet confirmed any details about the launch. Since the day Apple announced that they are working on the iPhone 7, rumors about the specifications, features and other updated designs of the phone has circled around.
Lately, tech blogs have been reporting that the upcoming iPhone7 is plain "boring" and doesn't have enough dazzle to catch the consumers attention; however, according to BGR.com, the rumored specifications of the iPhone 7 seems promising. The problem is, with all the rumored specs around, people are beginning to be confused on how the phone would actually look like.
Rumors stated that the iPhone 7 would be the first iPhone without a home button. According to BGR, Apple has been working on a lot of patents to remove the home button of the iPhone, and as seen on the recent leaked pictures of the iPhone7, the home button doesn't look like a button anymore. The upgraded home button in the upcoming iPhone 7 series is not pushed down like the buttons that the previous iPhone series has - it is concealed in a way that it seems like it is a part of the housing of the phone.
The rumored specifications that concerns people are the possibility that iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus would be released with a dual rear camera. Most of the consumers think that an extra camera is unnecessary. Next is the smart connector at the back of the iPhone 7 series, which was seen on the leaked pictures of the iPhone 7. The smart connector seemed a bit out of place.
According to the same publication, all this unknown features will eventually make sense once Apple released an official list of the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus' specs.
On other news, Apple is rumored to be testing out modems from Intel. It is believed that the iPhone 7 with AT&T provider would have Intel modems, while the iPhone 7 that would be provided by Verizon would have Qualcomm modems - the current supplier of Apple. It is unsure whether Apple is testing the waters and would eventually shift with Intel modems, or if Apple is just adding other options for their devices.
