Some sites have suggested the next iPhone will be called iPhone 7 and not the 6s because of the amount of updates that will warrant the 7 number over 6s, but that is just talk. Do a google search, and you all can read up on this rumor.

Here are three examples

I believe there are similar "rumors" pretty much every 'S' year that haven't gone anywhere. That certainly can change, but aside from the same old guessing every time there doesn't appear to be anything new to it to make it any more likely than just a simple possibility that has always been there.

That said, it's still somewhat unclear which exact phone the OP has really been interested in talking about here.
 
I expect no difference from the current iPhone 6 & 6 Plus as far as design and screen side. I do however expect the screen resolution of the 6S to bump up to 1920x1080p while the 6S Plus to have a 2560x1440. I expect both models to have 2GB of RAM with a Quad-Core CPU. Camera resolution to be 12MP with 2MP front. Battery life of the 6S Plus should be increased to 3,200mAh - 3,500mAh.


I don't get it something, the iphone 6plus have a resolution of full hd.

But some people are saying that the phone is downscaling from a resolution back to full hd.

So if you saying that iPhone 6s+ have a resolution like " 2560x1440 " it will downscaling back to full hd.
 
So...about iPhone 7 coming out next year, or the next iPhone (likely 6s) coming out later this year?

When you mention both it's hard to tell which one you are asking about exactly.

so let's say i'm talkig about iPhone 7 which will be released in2016, what do you think it will come up with as features, do you expect anything extra or just as usual some modifications on the screen resolution and size as well as modifying the processor and ram and the rest...

The iPhone 6+ has a native resolution of 2272 x 1280, but it downscales it to 1920 x 1080. Most likely this will stay in the iPhone 6s+ while the iPhone 7 could have the 2560 x 1440 native resolution.

We are still in the Rumor stages of the iPhone 6s. Even far less on the rumor mill on iPhone 7. Wait until this time next year. Remember, we are just little people, not Apple, so how can anyone know what 2016 will bring. Not rumors, but guesses ;)
 
I hope the iPhone 7 will never exist. New naming scheme, please!
For the 6S:
1. Tweaks to the design. Make it thicker to accommodate the FT and camera modules. The 6.9/7.1mm includes the camera, so they will still be marketed as those thicknesses. New shades of silver and space grey to match the :apple:Watch. Vibrant shade of gold with black bezel. New rose colour. 7000 series aluminium.
2. A9 processor. Similar to the A8X, with about 2684 and 6795 Geekbench. Improved battery life and 20 and 30 days of standby with each phone. 2GB LPDDR4 DRAM.
3. Improved Wifi. 802.11n/ac with MIMO.
4. Better camera. iSight with 13MP images at 4160x3120. ƒ/1.8 aperture. 2160p@30fps, 1440p@60fps, 1080p@120fps and 720p@240fps video. Manual mode for photo and video. FaceTime with 3.1MP images at 2048x1536. ƒ/2.0 aperture. 1080p@30fps and 720p@120fps video.
5. Force Touch. Don't really know how they will implement this, but we have to wait and see.
This may seem ambitious, and I wouldn't be disappointed if it didn't have all of these features, but I genuinely think that this will happen.

For this you need again much more, better cpu and a GPU. More better specs on screen is more resources, so more RAM and faster cpu needed.

The A6X handles the iPad's resolution well, so I have no doubts that an A10 would be more than adequate to drive that resolution. While the A8 might not be the best at driving the iPhone 6+'s resolution, two generations greater (A9 and then A10) should solve that.

Those specs are quit great :)
 
The iPhone 7 will be composed of pure energy and exist in six dimensions at once...

People will still complain because the camera protrudes slightly though.

Yes there have been. If the next one isn't the 6S for some reason I'm pretty sure it would be because they are going to some completely new naming scheme and it won't be the 7 either.
 
Most people seem dissatisfied with an 8MP camera but happy with a 2MP screen. And I doubt they post or print pictures that require more than 2MP.

So I say 12 MP screen. Just because.
 
I keep going on about this but I would really really love to see a 5.3' screen!

AND yes, a 12mp camera would be perfect!
