Apple has reportedly finished developing and polishing the iPhone 7 as it kicks off into mass production at the Pegatron factory which means that it could be rolled out soon.
The new leaked report comes from @Onleaks from Twitter or Steve Hemmerstoffer, who has a great track record of leaking information regarding upcoming smartphones in the mobile industry. Pegatron is just one of the Cupertino-based tech giant's partners in manufacturing and the iPhone 7 could very well be in their hands.
Fans have been anticipating the unveiling and the release of Apple's new smartphone. Several rumors have surfaced and most of them contradict each other, but the production report leak might beat them all.
Hemmerstoffer claims that Pegatron is manufacturing only the 4.7-inch iPhone 7 and not the iPhone 7 Plus version, TrustedReviews has learned. Foxconn is the manufacturing partner believed to be the one who will manufacture the 5.5-inch smartphone from Apple.

Apple is expected to launch their new product by September. Mass producing it now makes sense as there would be final testing stages and to get ready for the large demand.
There is another rumor going around that the new smartphone would actually have a stereo connector. The iPhone 7 will still be rocking the 3.5mm headphone jack as leaked photos from China's Rock Fix has shown, NDTV reported.
Earlier rumors have claimed that the new Apple smartphone will be ditching the headphone jack because of aesthetic reasons for making the device thinner than most of their previous devices. Users were supposedly required to use Lightning headphones or wireless ones using Bluetooth.
The iPhone 7 will also reportedly feature dual-SIM trays and the massive 256GB internal storage option. It also adds strength to the speculations that Apple is finally willing to drop the 16GB option to move up their storage choices.
With the new leaked photos of the iPhone 7 parts and the leaked information of the mass production for the 4.7-inch variant, it would be safe to assume that the device will arrive by September. More updates for the iPhone 7 Plus version could be expected as well in the following weeks.
