Rumors about the upcoming iPhone 7 are pouring strong as the device is expected to come out at the start of September, and a new element recently surfaced.

Apple's iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus could sport enhanced charging speeds, according to tipster The Malignant, who published the finding in a tweet.

The tipster speculates that the latest installment in the iPhone family will come with "at least" 5-volt 2-amp charging. In order to back the data on something, the user posted an image comparison of logic boards belonging to an iPhone 6s and an iPhone 7.

The existing iPhone handsets come with a 1A/5W charger, but for those who want to see them charging faster, a 2.1A/12W iPad adapter is the go-to solution. If The Malignant's tip holds true, the iPhone 7 could sport an even higher charging speed than the one found in the iPad charging adapter.

Most users agree that the main problem present in Apple's iPhone models is that the battery life is lackluster. Comparing iPhones with rival flagships, battery life constantly falls behind, showing that Apple is behind the pack in terms of optimizing power management in its smartphones.

This is why rumors about the iPhone 7's improved charging have been around for a while, as fans hope that the OEM will address the "wall-hugging" issue. However, seeing how the tidbit of info does not come from a reliable source, we recommend taking it with a grain of salt until official confirmation arrives.

The Malignant does have a history of sharing rumors and information that first leak on Chinese social networking sites, mainly Weibo, with some of them being legitimate.

What we know from more trustworthy sources is that the new iPhone will feature small design modifications, such as the relocation of antenna bands at the top and bottom edges of the device instead of running across its back.

The headphone jack, or rather its absence, has been making headlines for a while now, as the removal of the 3.5mm classic headphone jack could have dire implications on the types of files users are able to play on their phones.

Technical specs-wise, the iPhone 7 is said to carry 2 GB of RAM, while the larger variant, the iPhone 7 Plus, was spotted on Geekbench packing 3 GB of RAM. Additionally, a more powerful CPU is rumored to back the processing power of the devices, but details are scarce.

We will find out more as Apple introduces the iPhone 7 at an event that some claim will take place on Sept. 7.
