Apple expected to reveal iPhone 7 next week


On Monday, Apple sent invitations out for its autumn product launch Sept. 7 in San Francisco, leading many to believe the company will debut the iPhone 7 at the event.
Apple did not confirm any details, but typically during the annual September event, at least one iPhone model is announced, as well as new models or features of popular products like the MacBook and Apple Watch. Sources say they expect the new phones to come without a headphone jack. While Apple has sold more than 214 million iPhones over the past year, sales are down from the same time in 2015.
