New leak shows ‘iPhone 7 Plus’ with Smart Connector, no mute switch

New leak shows ‘iPhone 7 Plus’ with Smart Connector, no mute switch

One day after a fairly clear photo purporting to show the 4.7-inch iPhone 7 emerged, new photos have leaked, showing what could be the larger 5.5-inch model, with a dual-lens camera, Smart Connector on the back, and the notable absence of a mute switch. The photos, which turned up on Chinese search engine Weibo, are consistent with previous renderings where the size and shape of the dual camera opening is concerned, but the appearance of the Smart Connector is a bit strange.

New leak shows ‘iPhone 7 Plus’ with Smart Connector, no mute switch

While some other leaks have hinted at the larger model featuring a Smart Connector in that general location, the pictured iPhone’s ports look different than those of the iPad Pro’s Smart Connector. The Apple logo on the back of the device is also hollow, so it’s possible the phone seen here is unfinished.
Also of note is the phone’s lack of a mute switch.

While Apple has been doing away with the switch on iPads, the ability to mute a phone is more inherently useful. But with the company already rumored to be doing away with the headphone jack, it’s possible Apple could choose to rely solely on toggles within iOS to let users mute the device in the interest of simplifying the phone’s external controls.
