Apple iPhone 7: Release date, price, news and rumours

According to Mobile News, the new iPhone will be released on September 25. It’s claimed that the blog received an internal email from Vodafone, which outlines the prelaunch plans and includes two dates: September 18 for pre-orders and September 25 for the launch. We’re not sure of the authenticity of the email and since the rumoured launch is months away, there’s still a chance that these dates could change. However, Apple has surprised us somewhat over the past two years, releasing an iPhone 5C alongside the iPhone 5S in 2013, and an iPhone 6 Plus alongside the iPhone 6 in 2014. We're wondering whether Apple might soon decide to ditch the numbers completely and stick with iPhone, iPhone Plus and iPhone C, perhaps. Or, simply ditch the 'S' models and launch an iPhone 7.

In fact,

reports that emerged in mid April suggest that the next iPhone is going to be so significantly different to and better than the iPhone 6 that Apple has decided the iPhone 6S name doesn't fit, and instead will launch an iPhone 7 this autumn.
No one knows for sure yet though, so you'll see both terms used within this article, although primarily iPhone 7 to keep things simple. Some of you might be thinking, isn't it going to be called the iPhone 6S next? After all, Apple has released an iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPhone 5S and now iPhone 6 (alongside the iPhone 6 Plus). So if history repeats itself, it's likely that the next iPhone will be called the iPhone 6S rather than the iPhone 7. See also: iPhone 5S vs iPhone 6 comparison
