The lack of a headphone jack and a new shade of black: what to expect from Apple’s presentation

Today, 7 September, Apple (AAPL) will hold its annual autumn event in San Francisco, during which traditionally presents the new iPhone. According to CNN, this year we can even see the version of the smartphone in the new color to be closer to black.

New smartphone iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus, most likely, will not differ significantly from their predecessors. Apple, apparently, decided to reserve significant changes to the iPhone for the 10th anniversary next year.

Rumors of the main innovations have already caused anger among potential buyers. Apple is expected to deprive the new Phone 7 Plus of its connector for headphones. Instead, you will need to use a wireless headset or connect via the existing Lightning-port. Probably, the company will provide users with adapters.

Positive changes include the improvement of the cameras installed on the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. iPhone 7 Plus is expected to get two cameras to provide higher quality images in low light. In addition, Apple will abandon the 16-gigabyte model and increase the amount of storage of the initial models of the iPhone line up to 32 GB. There are also rumors that the new iPhone may be a waterproof or at least water resistant.

In addition the company will also introduce a lot of other innovations, including a new version of Apple Watch and updated software for all Apple products.

The event is scheduled for 17:00 GMT.

AAPL shares rose in premarket trading to $ 107.95 (+ 0.23%).
