Features of the Apple's iPhone 7 are circulating the web in forms of rumors. One of the most famous ones is that the iPhone7 might let you type in thin air, based off of a patent design Apple applied for.

The patent, filed in March of 2015, has specifications that have led to speculation of virtual touch screens.

The specifications of the patent depict a use of infrared LEDs and photodiodes. These detect light, and conjecture has been widely used to suggest that if integrated into an iPhone, this could mean a display that would dim visibly when a user brings it close to his/her face, lessening the distress of a dazzlingly bright screen

The new development might also mean that users would be able to type on their Apple devices without actually touching the screen. Trackpad gestures could potentially be made.

Another rumor circulating about the iPhone 7 is about its headphone jack - or lack thereof. It has been reported on Japanese tech blog Mac Otakara, by allegedly reliable sources that users will be able to use Bluetooth headphones with the new device. Also, it is being said that headphones will be plugged into the lighting conductor itself. If older EarPod headphones want to be used, users will need a Digital to Analog (DA) convertor. This will make the new iPhone's design visibly sleeker, something Apple has been progressively working on since a few iPhones ago.

The third rumor about the iPhone is that it may come in a thinner, waterproof design. Blog Mac Otakara quoting from China's Weibo claims the iPhone 7 to be waterproof as well as dustproof. It further says that Apple will use a metal frame as opposed to the the all-aluminum framework currently being used. The result will be a phone on the lighter side.

The tech giant based in California is currently constructing a huge structure, its Campus 2, and shaped like a spaceship as its headquarters in Cupertino, California. Footage of this construction's progress has been revealed. The building is reportedly a mile in circumference.
