According to various 'leaks' by leading technical sources the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 plus are significantly upgraded than their predecessors. View the comparisons below from the details obtained so far...

Furthermore, the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 plus feature other changes like the inclusion of two speaker grills suggest stereo sound output, a centimetre gap between the two inner cameras enclosed in a pill-shape protruding component, the lack of horizontal antenna lines on the back of the phone.
