Rumor has it that the iPhone 7 will have a built-in projector and a liquid metal body

Although the iPhone 6 was released not long ago, various rumors about the so-called iPhone 7 have already spread on the Internet. According to the news disclosed by the foreign website iPhone7update, the touch screen of the future iPhone 7 will be larger than that of the current iPhone 6 Plus and will use the latest sapphire screen. In addition to using a harder liquefied metal to solve the defect of easy bending of the body, the iPhone 7 will also provide a 256GB capacity version and add a projection function.

With sapphire screen

According to the news disclosed by the foreign website iPhone7update, the iPhone 7 will be equipped with a larger touch screen than the current iPhone 6 Plus, and will use the latest sapphire screen. At the same time, in order to reduce the bending of the body, the phone may use a harder liquefied metal to ensure sufficient toughness. In addition, it is rumored that the iPhone 7's Touch ID fingerprint recognition function will adopt an embedded design, and the classic Home button will be cancelled.

However, some sources have claimed that the next generation of iPhone will still have two models, but the touch screen size will remain at 4.7 inches and 5.5 inches, and it is expected to have a sapphire screen and upgraded camera specifications. Of course, if the iPhone 7 does remove the Home button, then the touch screen size can be increased to maintain the original body size, but the probability of this possibility may not be high for the next generation model.

Add projection function

As for the iPhone 7's functional upgrades compared to the current iPhone, according to the iPhone 7 update, Apple may launch a 256GB version with a larger storage capacity and a quad-core A8 processor, and the rear camera will be upgraded to 14 million pixels. It is worth mentioning that this next-generation iPhone is said to have a mini projector function similar to Samsung's GALAXY Beam, which can project images directly onto the wall.

In order to solve the energy consumption problem brought by the above new functions, Apple is said to adopt a new battery technology to significantly improve the battery life. As for the release time of the so-called iPhone 7, the current rumor is that it will be launched in the third quarter of next year, and the price will be higher than the current iPhone 6 Plus.

Or for concept design

However, the above statement seems more like a wish list handed over by an iPhone enthusiast, and the so-called sapphire screen, liquid metal body and higher-pixel camera configurations have already appeared in the iPhone 7 concept design launched by the well-known concept designer Martin Hajek, so it cannot be said to be any substantial revelation.

At the same time, judging from the evolution of previous iPhone generations and the current situation of iPhone 6 being in short supply, it is expected that the future iPhone 7 will not have radical upgrades in terms of functions. Moreover, it will be a long time before Apple releases the next generation iPhone, and it is even unknown whether it will be named iPhone 6s or iPhone 7. Therefore, before the industry chain and related news channels are active, it may be too early to talk about what kind of changes iPhone 7 will bring.
