The iPhone 7 is officially out of the equation and Apple enthusiasts will have to wait one more year before Apple unveils their new flagship phone, the iPhone 7.

For this year, what Apple has in store for its avid users is the better and much-improved version of the iPhone 6, the iPhone 6s. Is it, really?

According to Know Your Mobile, a recent report from 9to5Mac's Mark Gurman features an alleged leak of the upcoming iPhone 6s. How did they know if it is the iPhone 6? The metal housing gave it away. Usually, prime iPhones, as they call iPhone 4, 5, 6, have some external tweaks into it while the S versions only have internal modifications added.

As per Gurman: "Our images show no noticeable external changes coming from the iPhone 6 - even the Space Gray color has remained light, contrasting with the darker Space Gray Apple Watch - but it is possible that Apple's final hardware could include additional tweaks."

Gurman further added that the iPhone 6s antenna will be retained, a feature many iPhone 6 users disliked.

"Apple recently applied for a patent on a technique to hide the antenna lines on the back of an iPhone with an 'anodized metal appearance.' Unless something changes from the casing here, those lines will persist through the iPhone 6S lineup," Gurman says.

Meanwhile, CNET reported the projected specs of the upcoming handset. Its processor is rumored to be powered by a Qualcomm-developed chip known as the MDM9635M. What's special with this chip is that it can support up to 300Mbps worth of download speed. It surpasses the 150Mbps download speed capacity of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus.

Also, in a report by Alphr, Apple will continue its trend of releasing an S version of every iPhone they release that started since the iPhone 3G. Thus, the website claimed they are certain that iPhone 6s is coming first before the iPhone 7.

As for its release date, the website believes it will be introduced in a special event in San Francisco happening on September 8, 2015. This has been an ongoing trend for Apple wherein they unveil new handsets during the second week, specifically on Tuesday, of September.

Lastly, the website added that it will be for sale in the United Kingdom 10 days after, or if not, the Apple iPhone 6s will be sold before September is over.
