Wut? Whers the screen? I think dis is fake.

It is so tiny you can't see it anymore! :D

I believe the smart connector will be on the iPad only for now, and I hope they'll put the dual camera on both models but all the rumours so far predicted a different camera on the 5.5
 
One of the most confusing rumors ever.. They are getting better closer to the start of a product, but also the more interesting...

That could be anything.

The fragmentation these forums used to berate Android for is clearly very much part of Apple's game now.

Are you serious? Did you want me to get a list of every iOS device available and a list of every Android device available? Didn't think so.

Fragmentation is far worse on Android.
 
I thought the iPhone shell was machined from a solid slab of aluminium? What is the mould for?

But you admit it now exists within iOS.

Personally I don't see it as an issue, but these forums very much used to. Until Apple started doing it.
 
They seriously need to call this phone the iPhone 6SS. It doesn't deserve the iPhone 7 name if the lack of new features rumors turn out to be true.

There must be a huge software feature exclusive to the iPhone 7. Keep in mind that iOS 9 was the year they focused on bug fixes and stabilization. Basically they have had 2 years to focus on iOS 10 features.
 
It's too bad the 4.7 inch doesn't have dual cameras. I wonder if it's because there is not enough room or because Apple is trying to push people to the larger more expensive phone.
 
can't believe they've come up with this ugly dual camera design

Hahaha this is my favorite post so far. This is how far the Apple user base has dropped...now the dual-camera housing get's criticized as ugly. Awesome.

Does it really matter? You buy the phone that suits your needs most. I'd love to have the dual-camera but portability matters more. We'll see in October ;)
 
During the last earning call the Apple PR spinsters were dampening expectation.
Now this disinformation campaign is just confusing everyone.
You earned that wage - Apple PR machine - best disinformation campaign by a long shot!

Here is hoping that you are right. I would very much like in 2016 to have a new iPhone with the new form factor

All I could think of is 'If Han Solo was an iPhone in iCloud City...'
Wow. That was a good one!

I doubt that any software feature exclusive to the iPhone 7 (if that's even the name) will be considered "huge" by most of us.

My iPad mini 4 with the A8 has that feature and my 6s is significantly more powerful than my mini so it would be total BS by Apple to make it exclusive to the iPhone 7. Then again, split screen on a 4.7" display is kind of useless. I think people hoping for some huge software feature exclusive to the iPhone 7 are grasping at straws here.

Please don't take my words out of context. I'm not hoping. The basis of my comment was a recent interview of Tim Cook where he stated that there is a feature coming that we will all want but we don't know we want yet. Very vague I know. I was thinking it maybe software versus hardware related.

I was poking fun of Apple and their stupid moves to make features only available on the latest hardware even though past generations can run it.
 
I was hoping this year we'd get a 2k OLED display (on the Plus model) and a Virtual Reality headset from Apple. Yes, I know. I'm a delusional optimist.
 
iphone 5 owner in desperate need of an upgrade but this iphone 7 sounds crap. I hope apple have something better than the rumours.

It seems that we are in the same boat. My 5S contract has finished but I'm holding off on upgrading at the moment. The SE has me tempted but I would like to try a larger display but I wouldn't get a 6S/6S+ this close to September. On the other hand, most of the iPhone 7 rumours are weak at best! What I'll probably do is get the 7 or 7+ as a short term upgrade anyway and see how I get on with the size increase. Then, in 2017 is Apple brings out something amazing I'll upgrade to which ever size suits me I think.
