Here’s what you can expect from the new IPhone.

Colour: A darker shade of blue if leaked images are to be taken into account

Operating system: Likely to be the iOS 10. The iOS 10 is already out in beta version. September 7 will see the roll out of the finished version

Better battery backup: The new iPhone will come with slightly bumped up batteries at 1,735 mAh and 2,810 mAh respectively. While the iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus use battery sizes of 1,715 mAh and 2,750 mAh, respectively. iPhone 6 and 6 Plus use 1,810 mAh and 2,915 mAh

Storage: The 16GB iPhone may no longer exist. The new version will come with minimum 32GB storage

Speaker grill at the bottom: According to a report from Chinese website MyDrivers, the new iPhone will have a second “speaker grill” at the bottom and no separate headphone slot. It is likely to sport a USB Type-C port, and need wireless bluetooth headphones or a headphone that connects to the lightning port

Camera: There will be a protruding camera. There might also be sport optical image stabilisation (the picture will not shake even if your hand trembles while shooting)

Design: A video from Nowhereelse.fr reveals the device will be close to the iPhone 6s in terms of design and size. There will be fewer antenna bands on the back.

Spoiler alert: An all-glass iPhone may be Apple’s blockbuster for the 10th anniversary edition, according to KGI’s securities’ Ming-Chi Kuo, known as the best Apple analyst.

THE SMART WATCHES

There are likely to be two versions with moderate improvements while sharing the same design as current models.

MACBOOKS

The MacBook Pro is set to get its first update since its 2013 launch. Reports suggest a new machine could be in the works, which would enable Apple to benefit from the last two years of processor advances. On the cards is also a Retina MacBook Pro.
