Apple iPhone 7 - next big iPhone
Apple is gearing up to launch its next big iPhone.The company is about to announce its iPhone SE. It’s a major announcement for the company, but it’s not the iPhone 7 — that big phone isn’t expected to come out until September.
Instead, Apple will be offering a smaller and cheaper version of the iPhone 6s, according to rumours, all of which will be put into a body with the size and some of the look of the iPhone 5.
But that small phone might be far more important than the big sibling that will follow later in the year. It might even hold the key to the fortunes of the world’s biggest company for years to come.
The iPhone SE comes out at a time of big pressure for Apple: for the first time in years, iPhone sales don’t appear to be growing at their previously super swift speed, and many are worried that a slowdown might be coming. That could be happening for a number of reasons, but it’s certain that at some point Apple will have sold iPhones to everyone who could ever want one.
The iPhone 7 could be followed by an entirely new, premium phone that will feature completely new design and technology.
Apple could entirely revamp its product lineup in 2017, according to a new report from reliable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.
Next year, the company will release a new phone with a curved screen and special display technology, the report claims. The new phone could come into the iPhone line-up as a special premium model that will sit above the existing normal iPhone models, which are currently seen as the top-of-the-line Apple phones and see yearly refreshes.
The report is just the latest to suggest that Apple’s product line-up is to undergo a huge change. Previous reports have suggested that the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus might be joined by an iPhone 7 Pro, a premium version of the large phone that will feature new camera technology.
The iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus were unveiled on 9 September 2015 and were released shortly after, and prior to that the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus also launched on 9 September in 2014, so it's quite possible that the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus will launch on 9 September 2016.
The only flaw in that theory is that the 9 September will fall on a Friday in 2016, and Apple tends to host its events on Tuesdays or Wednesdays, so a more likely suggestion would be 6 September or 13 September.
