Apple reportedly readying iPhone for Japan with tap-to-pay

The new iPhone 7 and the iPhone 7 Plus will have new features in the attempt of getting more people to use these devices. Another report draws light on the fact that some of the iPhone 7 models will come with Intel’s modem chips over Qualcomm’s solutions.

Both the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus are expected to get the iOS 10 update.

Apple Pay first launched in October 2014 in the US with the iPhone 6 and has since expanded to Australia, Canada, China, Hong Kong, France, Singapore, Switzerland and the U.K. Apple Pay contributes to the company’s rapidly growing services business, which grew 19 percent year-over-year to about $6 billion in the fiscal third quarter.

A report from FastCompany claims that this is a feature Apple will provide with the iPhone 7 by coating the components of the iPhone 7 with a special chemical. I have cars where you can plug in the music, or go through Bluetooth, and Bluetooth just sounds so flat for the same music.

We now expect Apple to release not two but three iPhone 7s this September.

Analysts have also forecast a further drop in demand for the upcoming iPhone 7 series due to a lack of new features in the new models. The sales figures for the first week could give us a clear indication of the future sales of the iPhone 7 and what is the general reaction to the product.

There were rumours on the Internet about this new phone and we can’t wait to find out which of them are true. It’ll be a bit of a change, one that will annoy lots of users (at least right away). The leaks have shown that the iPhone 7 is a decent upgrade with several new features, despite staying in the iPhone 6 design language. That means the 4.7in iPhone should ship with a resolution of 1,334 x 720, while the 5.5in model will use a 1,920 x 1,080 display. So obviously, rather just target a smaller market, it makes sense for Apple to jump on the bigger bandwagon. Just like what most rumors suggested, Lin is seen holding an iPhone 6-inspired handset that appears to sport a dual camera system.

People familiar with the matter have revealed that Apple hopes to collaborate with different mass transit card providers. As for headphones, Business Insider notes that these should either have Bluetooth connectivity, if not a jack that connects directly to the Lightning port of the iPhone 7.

According to Gotta Be Mobile, online pre-orders for the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus begin at 12:01AM PST on September 9, while others following EST will have to place orders at 3:01AM.
