@ 2016/03/06According to a recent Chinese media report, Apple may be switching its naming scheme on the Plus-sized iPhone models for its tenth-generation iPhone 7 launch later this fall, to one that is more consistent with new product announcements in the third quarter of 2015.
The rumor originates from foreign media source HG through a blog post on MyDrivers.com, in which the author notes that Apple believes the Plus-sized model of the iPhone 7 will be rebranded as the “iPhone 7 Pro,” or simply the “iPhone Pro.” The reasoning behind this marketing strategy is to make room for a third iPhone model in the company’s smartphone portfolio, in order to bring it more in line with the three-model iPad portfolio that recently got its third and newest member – the iPad Pro – in November 2015.
