We’re just a few months right into the iPhone ^ launch cycle and the internet is already full of rumors about the iPhone 7. According to the buzz, a crucial marketing feature of the phone will be a waterproof feature.
The iPhone 7 Might be Waterproof
If this is true, it a very first for an Apple iPhone, but it won’t come as a surprise. There are already phones that have been introduced as waterproof, including the Sony Xperia ZR and the Samsung S6 Active. The prospect of a water resistant iPhone 7 isn’t that radical of a prediction. Clearly, waterproofing has been on Apple’s mind, and also if the iPhone 6s was a step in that direction, the iPhone 7 could be the phone that comes as full on waterproof.
Apple is Also Aiming for Better Storage
This isn’t the only feature rumored to come on the new phone. Apple has actually stated that its new AX processors make for a lot more effective usage of memory compared to smartphones running Qualcomm processors. With the new Nexus 6P from Alphabet’s Google boasting 4GB of RAM, Apple could be upping the game in the iPhone 7 Plus to make sure the new iPhone remains competitive in against Android smartphones.
iPhone 7 Could Have AMOLED Screens and Make an iPhone 7c
There have been reports claiming the new phone may drop LCD screens for the brighter AMOLED used in Samsung’s front runner smartphones, along with the Apple Watch. The other big rumor is that Apple could be making a 4-inch version of the iPhone 7 to replace the old 5c.
There’s High Demand for a Smaller iPhone
Despite Apple’s efforts to shoot for bigger phones, there’s heavy demand for a smaller iPhone at a lower price, thus bringing the possibility of a 4″ iPhone 7c into play. A number of analysts are expecting Apple to release to satisfy this demand, possibly with a metal screen as opposed to the plastic that came with the 5c. It’s possible that it also comes at a lower price, using an A9 processor and probably without 3D Touch.
