Apple had put all the speculations to rest by announcing the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus in September. As rumoured, the smartphones came with no headphone jack and one variant did indeed come with a dual camera setup. The smartphones were launched in five colours, with the new one being Jet Black, while the Black (Matte) colour was re-introduced.
However, a fresh report by Mac Otakara now claims that the Cupertino giant plans to launch another 'Jet White' colour variant which can be thought to mean a glossy white colour variant. According to the reports, the 'Jet White' colour variant will be introduced for the base 4.7-inch variant as well as the 5.5-inch Plus variant. The report even shared a concept image of how the 'Jet White' variant would look like. There is no mention of when Apple plans to launch the new colour variant in the market.
The publication also specifically notes that the source 'may not be reliable', so I recommend readers to take the news at their own discretion. In any case, the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus are for now available in Gold, Rose Gold, Silver, Black (Matte), and Jet Black colour variants.
Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo recently also predicted that Apple will skip the refresh of its iPhone SE next year to keep its gross margins high and avoid cannibalisation of its high-end products. There is a year on year decline in Apple sale numbers, and instead of launching a cheaper substitute, the company could look to up those numbers with the help of a new colour variant.
In any case, leaks of next year's iPhone 8 have started to pour in. As 2017 will mark the ten-year anniversary of the iPhone, Apple is anticipated to bring several new features to memorialise the occasion. The iPhone 8 is expected to sport big changes, and preliminary leaks indicate an OLED display panel, optical fingerprint recognition, an all-glass back, and a possible third variant.
