It’s been two months since Apple Inc.’s launch of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, and already the rumors have started of what we can expect from the iPhone 7. iPhone7 update, a blog dedicated to iPhone 7 rumors and speculation, pulled together the latest on features, price, specs and more for the iPhone 7. Here are the highlights:

Display

Apple will want to ensure that the iPhone 7 is equipped with superior clarity when it comes to the screen, so it is likely that the screen size will be even bigger than the iPhone 6 Plus. Rumors also abound regarding the removal of the physical home button, due to the fact that TouchID sensor will be included. Face recognition may be brought in for unlocking the phone as well as the use of sapphire glass, like the Apple Watch. Speculation is also rife that liquid metal will be used for the chassis, which is more durable.
