14 DAY TRIAL // The huge number of leaks that have reached the web so far has helped us figure out what the iPhone 7 will bring new, but it’s always good to get confirmation from someone who’s more deeply involved in the industry and who’s likely to be a more reliable source.
In this case, Lenovo has become what could be the first official source confirming some iPhone 7 specs, as its Motorola unit published a graph comparing the technical specifications of flagship devices currently on the market or soon-to-be-launched with the Moto Z.
Lenovo thus compares the specs of the Moto Z with the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 and the iPhone 7, even though the latter isn’t even on the market.
But according to Lenovo, the iPhone 7 Plus won’t be as good as its own model because it’ll come with just a 5.5-inch screen, a camera offering 4X digital zoom, up to 256 GB of storage space, a 3,000 mAh battery, and mono speakers.
3,000 mAh battery
The Chinese firm thus confirms that a 256 GB version will be introduced as part of the iPhone 7 lineup, which aligns with previous rumors that Apple is planning to phase out the 16 GB and the 64 GB versions and focus on just three variants with 32, 128, and 256 GB of storage.
Additionally, Lenovo also discloses that the iPhone 7 Plus will come with a 3,000 mAh battery, which is a welcome improvement over the 2,750 mAh unit offered on the 6s Plus. Previous reports have suggested a battery with a capacity below 3,000 mAh, but if Lenovo is right, then this threshold could finally be reached to offer at least one full day of autonomy.
It remains to be seen if Lenovo knows something or it’s just speculating like the majority of people, but we’ll find out everything about the new iPhone 7 tomorrow, when Apple officially introduces the new model. We’ll be covering the event, so stay tuned for more on the iPhone 7.
