Leaked: iPhone 7 chassis hints at redesigned antenna and larger camera

If we are to trust another iPhone 7 rumor, then you might have to opt for the larger, Plus model if you are hoping to get the dual camera. With the iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus relatively small steps forward for Apple’s iconic handset, the iPhone 7 phones are likely to offer some major upgrades.

Apple iPhone 7 rumours continue to reveal new information about the device, even though the actual launch will only take place in September.

The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6s’s backs have antenna bands, which make it possible for network signals to pass through their aluminum bodies.

We know that you can never always trust what via NowhereElse.fr reports, although they do have so-called drawings of the technical drawings for the iPhone 7 chassis.

The rear camera is depicted as being surrounded by a larger black orifice, explaining that the new design results in a “slight bulging outgrowth” rather than today’s protruding lens.

We can also expect some upgrades on the cameras and Apple are expected to get rid of the 3.5mm audio jack and use the lightning port for audio, the lightning port on the handset is also said to be slimmer, although it will apparently be compatible with existing lightning accessories.

Apple Insider quoted noted Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo as saying in a note that the new iPhone 7 Plus will come with a dual camera set-up.

And now new renders published online in the last few hours try to provide us with a closer look at the changes that Apple is planning for the iPhone 7. None of the previously released iPhones produce stereo output through its external speakers.
