4K Video Emerges Online Depicting Three Versions of iPhone 7

I like the blue as shown on Unbox Therapy. The design though doesn't seem very 'Apple' though - it seems very unrefined and a bit rushed. Saying that though, these are the people that put the charging port (a lightening connector at that) on the bottom of their new wireless mice so who knows?

Remember when Steve Jobs made that presentation in which he was saying that all of Apple's product lines should be pared down to "consumer" and "pro"? There's too much fragmentation in the Apple ecosystem currently. This is a bad sign.

These are probably fairly accurate, but you would think by now that Apple would leak fake units to throw us off.

Just a thought...

Nice dummy vid, but I guess this settles it then. The new phones will look nice, but hardly worth an upgrade from a 6s.

That's weird. Both the smaller iPhone 7 and the larger iPhone 7 Plus with the dual lens camera have the exact same model number (A1429) and the same FCC number. Not only should they be different, but the model numbers should start with "A17" since iPhone 6 models started with "A15" and the iPhone 6S models started with "A16"). Also the "flash" on the backside is just what looks like a piece of solid yellow plastic under the outside glass (no dual LEDs under the glass).

When the "iPhone 7" is shown beside the iPhone 6S in the video, the "iPhone" logo on the back of the iPhone 7 is in the wrong font, and the Apple logo looks like it is just silk-screened on instead of the reflective metal like on the iPhone 6S. Also, comparing the gold surface of the "iPhone 7" vs. the iPhone 6S, the surface of the iPhone 7 looks too rough (as if it just has been spray painted on).

Based on this, these appear to be fakes. :p

Boy. If we do actually get a pro (and it's something more than just the better camera), color me amazed.

Dummy mockups for sure. Plus the FC markings are on them. (Although maybe some countries require some of the additional markings on the back?). At least it doesn't say S on the back :p

Most countries still do require the markings. I couldn't say beyond that whether these are legit though.
 
ugh the saddest thing about smart phones these days that if you want the best camera/specs you have to buy a phone that's at least 5.5 inches and most have huge bezels except the samsung galaxy s7 phones. Maybe I just have to give in and go big. Nexus 6p at the price its going for these days is tempting like crazy.
 
Those camera bumps make the backside look ugly.

It would be nice if the improved camera was available across any size iPhone. Apple always like to cripple other stuff when the screen is smaller.

I figure they're saving that stuff for 2017 - the big 10th anniversary year.

Why doesn't Apple just make a new phone already? This is just the iPhone 6 for the third time... but with LESS features because it lacks the headphone jack!

Still hoping for a 4" one hand friendly phone with the top specs...

Current SE is really-really good. Also features an amazing 3.5 mm audio jack to be plugged into just about anything. ;) It would make little sense for Apple to release a new 4" phone just several months after SE, so we might have it in the spring 2017 or later?
 
So from the looks of it the new dual lens camera still uses the smaller sensor from the 6s models. While the new single lens camera will have a larger sensor and probably take better pictures overall. Especially in low light. Hope the dual lens has same larger sensors they are adding to the non "pro" model.
 
There will most definitely be a pro model. This is a tried and true tactic of creating artificial segmentation in a mature market.
 
I'm not buying an iphone with a busted mute switch like that! Apple has terrible design sense.
