Lol. We already started iPhone 16 predictions.
This is how it is every year. Last year there was iPhone 15 rumors before the 14 was announced. All these leakers gotta be first to the punch.
Lots are also kind of low hanging fruit. Things like someone hear some company has a new technology and that an unknown buyer is asking them to ramp production. The thing about rumors that far out is maybe it’s true, but between now and then some issue comes up that results in Apple changing some aspect of the design. That doesn’t necessarily mean the original rumour was wrong.
That’s how a lot of tech is. There’s been articles about the pixel 9 for almost a year even though the 8 isn’t even out.
A brighter screen is not on my wish list. It’s already plenty bright for me.
