I'm happy with my iPhone 6 still. The 6s was a very marginal upgrades in my opinion and by the looks of it the iPhone 7 will be more or less the same. The 2017 iPhone rumours sound interesting with the possible move to OMLED screen, curved or edge to edge display and the complete removal of the home button along with a new design.

I will be more than likely looking at purchasing the new Apple Watch if it makes an appearance. I'm a wheelchair user and the work Apple has done making the health features accessible to wheelchair users has been really impressive. It also makes the watch much more useful to me now as well.

I'm more interested to see what happens with the watch than the phone this time. Built in GPS is probably too much to ask for but some additional sensors might be nice.

I think built in GPS is one of the things that people are expecting. No cellular this time around but GPS seems likely.

The rumours that seem to be doing the rounds that a well as GPS the Watch will have a barometer for altitude tracking, stronger water resistance, a larger-capacity battery and a faster processor.
