From MacRumors, the current list of rumored changes (from a good source) are:

• New, faster A10 chip (obvious)
  
• Storage capacities of 32 GB, 128 GB, 256 GB
  
• 3 GB RAM on 7 Plus (still 2 GB on 7)
  
• Five colors - silver, gold, rose gold, dark black, piano black
  
• IPX7 water resistance (this is what the Apple Watch is)
  
• No headphone jack; Lighting Earpods and Lighting to 3.5mm adapter in-box
  
• Earpiece is a full speaker for true stereo
  
• Pressure-sensitive click-less home button with haptic feedback (similar to MacBooks)
  
• Wide color display (using iPad Pro 9.7" tech)
  
• Dual-lens camera on Plus
  
• Upgraded rear flash with 4 LEDs
  
• Upgraded proximity sensor (possible)
  
• FeliCa NFC support for Japanese models

There's been some others bouncing around (including a blue color), but those are the from the best source. And that's not including any iOS 10 changes that haven't been revealed. I wouldn't say it's as minor as people have been harping, but I also don't see myself upgrading from my 6S.

I really have no reason to upgrade from my iPhone 6...unless the new phones have screens that don't explode with any little impact. I've gone through two 6's because of the fragile screen.

I predict there will be magsafe-style analog audio out pins like on the edge of my old-rear end nexus 7. That would preserve the waterproofing rating and lets them sell a $39 thumbnail size 3.5 adapter, which is the essence of all things apple.

I'm actually pretty careful with my phones, I think I might just have bad luck. The first time, my phone fell out of my pocket when getting out of the car at the gas station, landed on its back side without a case on, and the screen shattered. The second time I had a case on, I dropped it while sitting on a weight bench, landed on the corner of the phone on a padded floor, and once again the screen shattered.

Without any headphones jack, how am I/we supposed to continue using the Square card-swipe dongle I bring in 10-11k a month using that...

This is me in a nutshell. It sucks but we shouldn't blame Spotify, that's Tay being kind of a bitch.

I am kind of a Spotify evangelist. I pay for Spotify for me, my gf, a friend, and my parents. Spotify dynamic playlists and Discover Weekly are loving great.

Does Apple Music have anything similar? Also does Apple Music have lyrics? I got real mad when Spotify removed their lyrics option.

The new wireless earphones look okay. Will they work with Android phones? Or did apple decide to go special snowflake and break compatibility?

These loving brand new wireless Beats they just showed off at the keynote don't charge over Lightning and use a USB cable instead? Seems real weird.

iPhones are basically pre/live and post ironic dolls for men, whereas women use them for trolling Grindr and posting Instagram pictures of their tits.

Good guess.

While it's the first time I've ever missed release day when pre-ordering. Must be heavily supply constrained.

I'm actually more concerned that I have some travel that I can't change late next week. If they ship it early, I don't want it left on my doorstep for 3 days.
Also, once I saw it I really wanted that camera to use on the trip!

Hopefully if it does ship early, whatever carrier they use will honor the "hold for signature" sign I put up for such things.

Those people would look more privileged than I would if I have to show my face in public with a 5C.

Feenix posted:

A chat person at Apple said to me that was impossible and everyone with dates that late was lying on the internet. LOL.

Despite that showing up EVERYWHERE.

Sadly, my 9/9 order on Apple (ordered at 12:09pm) with a ship date of 9/27-29 has been Preparing for SHipment for like 5 days now and no status update whatsoever. People with the exact same configuration as me who have original dates of October are getting their phones bumped up to today, tomorrow, wednesday, etc...
