According to analysts, the new iPhone could have at least 32 GB. A three-year cycle (June 1) is now possible
Analyst from the company IHS Technology based on his research, he predicted that the new iPhone 7 will finally be equipped with a 32GB base capacity, and the 16GB version will become a thing of the past for Apple and its smartphones. IHS tends to be quite accurate in these speculations, as evidenced by the prediction of a four-inch iPhone in 2016 (iPhone SE). This step would seem logical - 16 GB is often not enough, and with the arrival of more demanding applications, 4K video and other functions, this lowest variant becomes really critical for most users today. Furthermore, the iPhone 7 Plus is also expected to have 3GB of RAM, mainly because the device will tighten new components in the form of a dual camera.
With the expected release of the new iPhone 7 in the fall of this year, speculation is also starting to arise as to whether Apple has switched from its traditional two-year iPhone introduction cycle to a three-year cycle. Apparently, the new Apple smartphone will come in the fall with only minor changes, such as an improved camera. These more insignificant changes record the fact that the Cupertino company will switch to a new three-year cycle, since a significant upgrade of the iPhone, which was typical for the original period, is not expected in the fall.
