iPhone 7 release date, rumours, features and specs

published 13 May 2016

Will the iPhone 7 be a success?

At a consumer level, it is highly unlikely that the iPhone 7 and its variants will bomb. As reported by Nikkei in January, although there was a glut of inventory in the first quarter of 2016, "Apple's products and brand have not lost their appeal, and older models have continued to sell".

Indeed, iPhones were a major driving force behind Apple's record-breaking Q4 2015 financial results.

Additionally, the iPhone 7 will be a new model, rather than an 's' series update like the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus.
