iPhone 7 coming soon, what has Apple changed?

As many of you Apple fans know, Apple releases at least one phone every year, usually in the fall time around September.  This years big release is the iPhone 7, and its a big release too!  The iPhone 7 adopts many new types of technology that we have never seen before, sources say.  But there are also major physical changes in the device itself.  One major change that people are very sad and upset about is that Apple is removing the headphone jack, that was the only way (besides Bluetooth) to listen to music on iPhones. Because of this, Apple users will have to switch over and buy Bluetooth headphones, or the Apple wireless earpods when those come out.  The reason to get rid of the headphone jack is because Apple tries to make their devices thinner and thinner by the phone.  This headphone jack gives Apple an opportunity to make the iPhone 7 a little bit smaller.  There is also rumored to be an iPhone 7 Plus and iPhone 7 Mini released, but there is not much information about those at this moment.

Apple is also trying to use a new kind of material on their phones instead of Aluminium.  The reasoning behind this is that this new material will be water resistant, but still not completely water proof.  The iPhone 7 is also rumored to have a big upgrade with an option to get it in 256GB, doubling the previous storage of 128GB! This could be very useful for people who take lots of pictures or videos and  need more space.  Apple is also trying to adopt wireless charging technology, which can be very useful when you are on vacation or just out shopping

All in all, the iPhone 7 is rumored to be an amazing phone, and I hope i can pick it up!
