It's that time again, folks. That day when we all huddle around our primitive, soon-to-be one-generation-older displays, and watch a billion-dollar company announce its latest incremental developments. That day 鈥斅犅犫�� will be this day: September 7.
A New iPhone and Second Generation Apple Watch Are on the Horizon
础蝉听, Apple will be revealing its iPhone 7, to an audience primed to write even more聽聽about its lack of聽.
Yes, the rumor is that Apple will remove the headphone jack, although recently some blogs seem to think it won't come to pass. That controversial removal, however, is presumed to be the only substantial design change from the iPhone's last generation.
Meanwhile, the second generation of the Apple Watch could also be announced next week. We should see the new model receive a GPS and faster CPU. (It would probably be more surprising if it聽didn't聽have a faster processor than its 2-year-old predecessor.)
Get Excited for iPhone Price Drops
Of course, every new iPhone generation heralds price drops on the previous model, and this year will be no different. In fact, last year the iPhone 6 was discounted by $150 when the iPhone 6s was announced. For more details on聽, check out聽.
