Following the release of Samsung's Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge, tech freaks are wondering how Apple would answer the South Korean tech company's amazing features on their flagship smartphone. According to the latest reports, the upcoming iPhone 7 is said to feature a new camera and a new black color body.

Although these reports are merely just speculations, rumor has it that the Cupertino-based company is going to reveal the device in September, along with other Apple hardware releases.

The seventh generation of the iPhone smartphone is said to carry minimal improvements from its predecessor. There have been speculations all over the Internet suggesting that Apple's main focus right now is the upcoming development of iPhone 8 and its release in 2017.

Nonetheless, reports about the iPhone 7 getting several color choices are starting to become interesting to some fans. In a report by TNW, a dark black color variant will be added to the current options of silver, space gray, gold and rose gold; however, this report could not be confirmed until the device hits the market.

Despite the contradicting reports with regard to the specs and features of the upcoming Apple flagship smartphone, many people are still interested in its new camera feature. Previous reports suggest that the device may come with a dual-lens camera technology. Although Apple has yet to confirm these reports, consumers are pretty positive that the company is heading towards that direction in terms of development.

According to 9to5Mac, the primary camera of the new iPhone will have a circular design and appears to be bulgy based on the recent leaks circulating online. The publication added that smartphone may also have minimal design changes to make sure it would not look awkward with its new snapper.

As of the moment, fans will have to wait for Apple to provide an official statement about the upcoming handset.
