Leaked Schematic Reveals iPhone 7 Width and Height? [Image]

A leaked schematic claims to reveal the width and height of the upcoming iPhone 7. Posted by Nowhereelse, the image shows the iPhone 7 having a height of 138.30mm and a width of 67.12mm. That’s exactly the same as the iPhone 6s.Unfortunately, the image does not provide a thickness so we can’t speculate on whether or not Apple has ditched the headphone jack.Notably, the schematic does show what appears to be slightly larger cutout for the camera. While a dual lens camera is rumored for the iPhone 7 Plus, it’s also been said that the iPhone 7 could get a larger sensor for improved camera performance.Share Article:Facebook,   Twitter,   LinkedIn,   Google Plus,   Email,   Reddit,   Digg,   Delicious,   StumbleUponFollow iClarified:Facebook,   Twitter,   LinkedIn,   Google Plus,   Newsletter,   App Store,   YouTubeAdvertise Here
