Red iPhone Coming? Apple's 2017 Lineup Reportedly Includes iPhone 7s, iPhone 7s Plus In All-New Color

Apple will update its iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus devices in 2017 to "iPhone 7s" and "iPhone 7s Plus," and will include a red iPhone, according to Japanese blog Mac Otakara, Mac Rumors reported.

The new phones will have the same aluminum design as Apple’s most recent iPhones, but will have internal changes, including the addition of a faster A11 chip. The blog did not say the new phones will have wireless charging, which was previously rumored in other reports.

The blog, which previously predicted Apple's plans to remove the headphone jack and add a Jet Black color for the iPhone 7 devices, says next year’s lineup might include an all-new red color along with the current Black, Jet Black, Gold, Rose Gold, and Silver shades.
