But that’s not what the best Apple intel believes would be the iPhone 7’s top “party trick”, “killer feature”, or whatever you want to call it. KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who ranks up there among the most accurate sources of Apple intel, says that the iPhone 7 will come with a dual-camera feature.

“Our meeting with a tech supply chain company highlighted a rough end to 2015 with significant forecast reductions from Apple; however, forecasts have been stable since then with 2Q:16 expected to be the trough”, said White in a pair of research notes released Friday. After a YoY sales decline in 1Q:16, our contact expects to return to growth in H2:2016.
In its quest to make iPhone 7 as thin as possible, Apple is definitely going to be bringing in a huge number of changes to its upcoming flagship, with the primary one being the battery capacity.
It’s believed that the new model will be around 40% thinner than the current iteration, according to Apple analyst Brian White.
Another Cowen and Company analyst Timothy Arcuri also claimed that the second generation Apple wearable will be unveiled sometime between mid to late 2016.
iPhone 7 Plus has all the natural benefits to pack in a larger battery capacity, and thanks to a reported ‘bezel-less’ display, both handsets are expected to be even more appealing than their previous generation counterparts. We are not saying we would not like to see a new Apple Watch that is not as thick, we just can not see it happening just yet. Apple, with the iPhone 5s, had earlier innovated the whole look and feel of what an iPhone used to be.

The iPhone 7 device is also expected to add waterproofing to the offerings, something which has frequently been demanded but has never actually been a part of the Apple devices before. The strong rumor which was saying that Apple Watch 2 will be released alongside iPhone 7 in September sounds baseless now. White is convinced that the Apple Watch wearble tech refresh will hit the shelves ahead of the iPhone 7, 7 Plus launching.
