A Waterproof iPhone 7 Without the Antenna Stripes?

Much to the delight of every Apple fan out there, a fresh rumor has once again "confirmed" waterproofing for the upcoming iPhone 7. The rumor originated in China and suggests that both future versions of the iPhone will flaunt a waterproof body, but will NOT have the now iconic "antenna stripes" that all previous and present iterations of the iPhone has so far sported.

The rumored "new compound materials" will not only allow Apple to do away with the plastic stripes, but it will supposedly allow the manufacturer to further modify their phone designs. On the basis of reports from a research and analytics firm, Catcher Technology will continue to be in charge of making and supplying over 30% of the iPhone 7's chassis for the foreseeable future.

Now that we have told you what the latest rumor is, we must now also tell you to remember that these are after all, "rumors." While the chances of the iPhone 7 being waterproof are pretty good, nothing has yet been officially confirmed. The fact that this is the second time we are hearing about waterproofing, gives the rumor a bit more credibility nonetheless. If we will actually get a waterproof iPhone 7 without the antenna stripes for real, remains to be seen.
