The company's offering in 2017 is expected to be a major design revamp, implying this year's phone will be similar to the iPhone 6S in appearance.
MacBook Pro 2016 is expected to feature Intel Skylake processors in a form factor similar to the 12-inch MacBook. Apple is likely to launch the laptop in September.
Though the company has maintained the impact of Kuamamoto earthquakes on supplies to Apple would remain unaffected, reports suggest Apple could face delay in launch of iPhone 7.
New reports suggest Apple’s future generation of smartphones (probably starting next year) will sport an ‘all-glass’ cover- a reversal to an earlier design. Meanwhile, this year’s purported new flagship, the iPhone 7, is slated to be released around September as the company struggles with sluggish sales of iPhone and its variants.
New rumors claim Apple is expected to ink a $ 2.5 billion deal with Samsung for its OLED tech and 100 million displays.
Leaked images have begun surfacing on a number of tech sites suggesting that the forthcoming iPhone 7 may finally ditch its conventional 3.5mm headphone jack to pave the way for the inclusion of the wireless Bluetooth-powered EarPod that will connect through Lightning. Meanwhile, HTC has just introduced H10- its newest smart handset with a slew of features that could give its rivals a run for their money.
The iPhone 7 is set for release this fall. It is not known if Apple will introduce major design changes or upgrade the phone's internals with minimal changes to the exterior.
Analyst Brian White has claimed Apple would launch the 5.5-inch Plus version with dual camera rear.
Analysts believe that Samsung’s earlier release of its 2016 smartphone lineup is strategically savvy given the tech consumer’s anxious desire for new devices as other companies put off their scheduled launching in favor of second-half-of-the-year release. Meanwhile, Galaxy S7 reportedly raked in three times more profit than its S6 predecessor thanks largely to its early release this year.
Despite growing hum of rumors that Apple's iPhone 7 would be markedly different from iPhone 6S but a few analysts have suggested Apple would reserve major differences for 2017.
An ‘unhackable’ iPhone is allegedly a work in progress after Apple’s recent standoff with FBI. Meanwhile, the Cupertino-based tech giant is reportedly using ‘fan-out packaging technology’ in its attempt to make slimmer yet more efficient iPhones.
Reports have emerged claiming Apple will use fan-out technology to reduce the thickness of iPhone 7 which may also have improved battery performance compared to its predecessors.
KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo recently claimed that next year’s iPhone comes with curved glass design, large AMOLED screen display, wireless charging, and biometric security feature. However, question remains whether Apple shall proceed with the drastic change next year despite rumors of a totally redesigned iPhone 7 this fall.
Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo predicted Apple's iPhone 7 will not deviate from iPhone 6 design but the 2017 variant will be thinner in metal glass and feature OLED screens. A 5.8-inch iPhone could be launched next year.
Highly sought after Apple event is all set to happen on Monday. Internet is abuzz with rumors and speculations about what is to be unveiled, specs, its prices etc.
