iPhone 7 vs iPhone 6s: What's in a Name?
If Apple follows its tradition, an iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus are likely to be seen with a new look and new features this fall.
New iPhone Design
Based on the popularity that the iPhone 6 Plus received, it is likely that the iPhone 7 design will feature two different screen sizes. Rumors also suggest Apple plans to discard the headphone jack to make way for a thinner iPhone or more room at the side for components. Apple could include a second speaker in place of the headphone jack. The iPhone 7 may come with better water resistance and dust resistance, which is a feature Apple upgraded privately on the iPhone 6s.
Better Camera

Storage
