The details claim September 2016 is the date to watch and that the iPhone 7c will be launched ahead of the full-blown iPhone 7 (as well as, presumably, an iPhone 7 Plus).
The launch, which was part of a series of launches for the Apple mobile phone products across various regions of the world, was held last week in Micro Station’s sales outlet at the Computer Village market in Lagos, and it attracted several people that visited the Computer Village market on that day. We had also recently reported that the iPhone 6c might arrive by February 2016.
Rumors have been revolving around the possible successor of the iPhone 5c since long.
Furthermore, International Business Times added that Apple’s journey for thinner smartphones would still continue as the iPhone 7 could be even thinner. Kuo also forecasted that production for the new iPhone will begin in the first quarter of 2016 and that full-year shipments for the new device will be around 20 million units.
