1. Two lens camera
It
is being reported that Apple will use a two-lens system in the camera
module of the next-generation iPhone. The dual lens setup will allow the
iPhone to capture more light, resulting in better photos.
Apple will also add optical zoom capability to the phone’s camera, resulting in better photos compared to cameras with digital zoom, as per rumours.

2. Force touch
Apple
will reportedly use its Force Touch technology in the upcoming iPhones.
This technology, already being used in Apple Watch, will allow the
touchscreen to distinguish between light taps and long presses, enabling
users to interact with their iPhones in several new ways.
Moreover, the touch sensors said to be used in the new iPhones will be able to determine the users' blood pressure and pulse more accurately.

3. Same screen sizes
The
anonymous supply chain sources cited in the report also mention that
iPhone will stick to the current crop of screen sizes, 4.7- and
5.5-inch.
There is no mention of the rumoured 4-inch iPhone 6S model yet.

5. 2GB RAM
The
next-generation iPhone will also reportedly get a memory upgrade.
According to sources from Taiwan, Apple may finally endow the next
generation iPhone with 2GB RAM.
While the close integration between the software and hardware ensures a smooth user experience, the bump in RAM will facilitate better multitasking.

6. New A9 processor
The
next-generation iPhone will be powered by Apple’s new A9 processor.
Just like the A8 processor, Apple’s new A9 processor will be based on
64-bit architecture. There are conflicting reports on which company will
make the processor.
Some reports suggest that Apple will go to Samsung for getting the chip made as its foundries support 14nm FinFET chips, that offer improved performance and use less power. However, some other reports claim that Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) will produce most of the A9 application processors.
