“Apple’s next-generation plus-sized iPhone model will feature even more RAM, reaching 3 gigabytes in total embedded into a next-generation ‘A10’ processor, according to well-connected analyst Ming-Chi Kuo,” Neil Hughes reports for AppleInsider.
“Kuo’s latest details from Apple suppliers were published in a research note Tuesday evening with KGI Securities, a copy of which was obtained by AppleInsider,” Hughes reports. “In it, he revealed that while the 4.7-inch ‘iPhone 7’ is expected to have the same 2 gigabytes of RAM as the iPhone 6s, the larger ‘iPhone 7 Plus’ will add another gigabyte for even greater performance.”
Hughes reports, “Despite the anticipated RAM difference, both phones are expected to run a next-generation mobile processor architecture from Apple, likely to be known as the ‘A10’ CPU.”

I am not buying unless it has 4GB RAM, 6 Cores, and mobile projector. Apple can’t seem to get their act together. Whatever happened to the tear shaped iPhone case? That come this time, because I was all over that before the iPhone 5 came out. Also I want edge to edge screen.
These guys are holding back.
What are you talking about with the case? Also, since you’re the only one demanding a projector (wtf for?! There’s AirPlay and Apple TV, cheap ass). I’m sure Apple will be just fine with one less sale.
In fact, I’ll buy two to make up for the loss.
And don’t forget the projection keyboard, mouse, and Mac OS X file system when it’s docked.
Lol, are you from a parallel universe where Apple is Microsoft?
Yeah a detachable keyboard, and a stylus with an eraser. Thanks for reminding me.
Beautiful!
bait the hook . . .
He’s talking about the iPhone that would have been the iPhone 5 if they could have got all their ducks in a row. Instead they released the iPhone 4S and spent another year developing the 5. It would have likely been AS thick as the iPhone 4 on one end and thinner on the other.
Rumour had it that it was like a wedge like the Air. It was to be the final “Steve Jobs phone” and maybe would have happened if he was feeling 100%. Maybe not, who knows. Instead his final phone was the iPhone 4 + Siri.
That would have been hideous. I hate the MacBook Air and the 2-4 gen iPads for that reason.
ANALyst. I don’t believe him anyway. By the way I can’t even log in with MDN App anymore. Not in Safari desktop, mobile iPhone iPad or MDN app. Please fix the login issues. 😊
Give me a break….
speaking of iPhone 7 rumors, there’s a recent rumor that it may debut earlier than usual.

I’m not into yearly phone upgrades. I was on a perfect track of the latest and greatest non s models 2 year upgrades. I’m patient. Can’t wait to see what they got in store for the 7. Rumors will flow. Apple us better then that. Redemption time
I much prefer the opposite cycle. The ‘S’ phones have just as much technology innovation as the non-‘S’ models, but by the time ‘S’ is released, there are zillions of cheap and attractive cases and accessories for that size.
