These 2 Apple IPhone 7 Leaks Won't Be Happy Reading for Fans

The launch of Apple IPhone 7 is perhaps the biggest tech event of the year considering the manic anticipation that a new IPhone launch generates among Apple fans and even non-fans all over the world. However, according to leaks, which is something that happens every year with all new IPhone models, there might be some rude shocks for IPhone users and a recent report in FORBES has pointed that out.

The first leak that is regarded as a major blow for most is that the IPhone 7 might not have stereo speakers. The report stated, "The first bad news comes via highly reliable French site Nowhereelse.fr which has attained schematics of the iPhone 7. The schematics say the matching second speaker grill on the bottom edge of the iPhone 7 (added thanks to the removal of the headphone jack) is purely cosmetic and simply houses the microphone. Apple has pulled a similar stunt before with the iPhone 4S which also had matching dual speakers on the bottom edge (the headphone jack was at the top of the phone back then). Many predicted stereo sound at the time, only to be disappointed."

The absence of a touch sensitive home button is another surprise and the report says so."With iPhone 7 innovations expected to be primarily internal (improved performance, bigger battery) and incremental (the dual camera is an iPhone 7 Plus / Proonly feature) there was one exception: the home button. After nine years, the iPhone 7 appeared ready to move to a MacBook-inspired touch sensitive button which uses haptic feedback to simulate the sensation of physical touch. A fixed button would be more reliable, save physical space and potentially enable Apple to use the touch sensitivity to add gesture support at a later date (there's no sign of this in iOS 10)." However, it is importnat to point out that plenty of such leaks have proven to be false in the past and hence people should wait for the official launch.
