We've already seen several alleged part leaks for the next-generation iPhone 7, and now Chinese site Digi.tech.qq.com [Google Translate] (via HDBlog.it) has shared images of what is believed to be the battery that will be included in the device.
The battery lists a capacity of 7.04 watt-hours, slightly larger in capacity than the equivalent battery capacity listed for the iPhone 6s (6.61 watt-hours) and almost identical to the iPhone 6 (7.01 watt-hours). Voltage is not visible on the alleged iPhone 7 battery, so the exact charge capacity is not yet available, but should be similar to the iPhone 6 battery.
Rumors suggest the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus will be thinner than existing iPhones, with Apple perhaps making room for the similarly-sized battery by eliminating the headphone jack and cutting down on the extra space around the Lightning port.

Apple is planning to launch new MacBook Pro models as soon as early March, but if you can, this is one generation you should skip because there's something much better in the works.

Apple is expected to release/update the following products...
Those combined leaks convince me that: Buying iPhone 6s Plus is still a good choice. In addition: - Removing headphone jack is a no-no. And I don't want an adapter, thank you. - I hate a thin device. iPod touch 6th gen is thin enough, but the feeling when holding it at hand is often strange. - I want a larger battery. Non of those above could iPhone 7 deliver to me. 6s Plus at least is thick enough, and it has a headphone jack.
