The well-known Apple blogger John Grube has hypothesized that the iPhone 7 and MacBook Pro 2016 will have synchronized release date.
According to Yibada, Grube is also arguing that both devices will lack the 3.5mm audio jack. As the MacBook Pro models and the iPhone 6S are now the subjects of irresistible promo deals, it is likely that his prediction will come true.
Cult of Mac reports that the 13-inch Retina MacBook Pro that comes with a dual-core Intel i5 2l.7 GHz processor, 128 GB SSD storage space and 8 GB of RAM is available for purchase at Best Buy for a price tag of only $999. However, the registration with the seller is mandatory in order to take advantage of the promo and deal is reserved only for students. Best Buy will send a voucher code thru email to verified laptop buyers to claim the $100 price cut.
The iPhone 6S is also subject of another killer deal for shoppers looking for huge discounts. According to Gotta Be Mobile, among the deals offering the latest Apple flagship phone, the price cuts go as high as $300.
Walmart, for instance, allows customers to choose their preferred storage sizes and cuts $100 off the original price of the iPhone 6S. Depending on the 6S package, Target cuts range from $50 to $100. At Best Buy, iPhone 6S is discounted at $199.
Promos are also available for customers who intend to buy the iPhone 6S directly from carriers such as AT&T. For subscribers who take two units, AT&T has a $650 cash back promotion.
Following the iPhone 7 launch expected at Q4 2016, iPhone 6S deals are expected to implement further substantial price cuts. According to University Herald, Gruber's recent blog suggests that the MacBook Pro 2016 release date will coincide iPhone 7's.
Since both upcoming Apple devices are expected to share the same design adjustments, the speculations about a shared release date seem plausible. It is likely that the iPhone 7 and the MacBook Pro 2016 will launch starting September 2016.
