Analysts cannot agree on anything at all. From China come various rumors in which it is stated that the company could have the intention of making more iPhone 7 models in its different versions before the end of the year than in the same period last year with the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus.
On the other hand, other rumors also come from China stating that component manufacturers are receiving fewer component manufacturing requests due to the low sales expectations that the company has planned for this year.
It is true that some analysts affirm that this year will not continue to be a record for the Cupertino-based company and as proof of this we have the numbers that the company presented last April, where we could see how Apple's figures had fallen compared to previous years, despite being high enough so as not to discourage the company.
In addition, from China it is also stated that one of the possible reasons for the low demand for this model could be caused by the low expectations of users in terms of innovation in their terminals, something very debatable taking into account the novelties they enjoy. the new iPhone models like the dual camera, more RAM, elimination of the headphone jack connection...
The only thing that seems to be clear is that this year it will be a turning point for the company, year in which Apple will not return to offer those impressive sales figures that it has shown to date. In addition, part of the fault is also Samsung and the public and critical success of the Galaxy S7, a model that at first glance looked like a carbon copy of the S6 but that has proven to be a complete twist on the device it presented last year.
Blah blah blah lack of innovations and bang the iphone 6s has 14 improvements over the iphone 6!
Blah blah blah Samsung and in companies and on the street I only see people with iPhones
Blah blah blah falling sales and selling a gazillion one, now they sell "only" gazillion ...
Innovation????
According to the rumors that circulate, it seems that the innovation this year is going to be kept in a drawer to show it next year to celebrate the 10th anniversary
Come on, it looks like this year is going to be a year of transition. They will add a few small changes to justify that they are selling you an improved 6s, which I don't think they even call iPhone 7.
The dual camera if that would be an innovation but it is rumored that only a "pro" version of the new generation will have it, therefore whoever buys the "base" model will not have it.
The one with more RAM memory although it is desirable is not by far an innovation
The elimination of the headphone jack connection… I hope that no one will sell me as an innovation having to buy an adapter to connect my headphones to the lightning and vice versa, because I don't think Apple will give you the adapter. what it will do is give you some earpods with a lightning terminal and run. If you want those headphones on other devices or if you want to use other headphones on the new iPhone, you know, to go through the box, in the Apple store they will have two official adapters at the reasonable price of Apple adapters.
In the end they may bring some novelty but everything indicates that it is going to be a year of transition
Of course, I am clear that what they take out will be a quality product and that it will work great
