Actually, there is something new about Apple's upcoming iPhone 7

The battery time is an outrage, and I detest the "thinnest phone ever" competition based on one of Steve's two most stupid statements regarding the iPhone: "look how thin it is" and the one about the original iPone having the only useful size.
Please dont once again hammer me with opinions about battery time (and I do have auxiliary power!). I have/have had 7 iPhones, and my employer have a few thousand users; the common number one grievance is the lack of battery time. After we got used to decent battery time with our last versions of dumb-phones before the iPhone, this has been a constant loss, fortunately not challenged by iPhone's competitors, in what case I probably would have been forced to use Android of some kind.
Regarding size, I much prefer the size of my 6s to my 5s, and my wife is extremely happy with the size of her 6+. So am I because it saved me upgrading her iPad, and to her size is less important carrying a purse. The current size range is in my opinion perfect, and should have been in place long ago, but waiting obviously was a great business decision.
The other one is the lack of water proofing, once unlucky, this becomes important.
You may not believe it, but there are people using the phone as a professional tool!
The iPhone is the best for that purpose I belive. BUT BATTERY TIME BEATS THE IMPORTANCE OF A FEW FRACTIONS OF AN INCHE IN THICKNESS.
And its a joke that you need to haul around auxiliary power, which usually somehow tends to end up out of reach when really needed. -
