According to AppleInsider , which quotes a report from KGI Securities's analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple is planning to make the iPhone 7 between 6.0 and 6.5 millimeters thick.
This will be made possible by the use of super-durable 7000 series aluminum alloy, which is rumored to be used in the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus' cases as well .
Apple rumors, especially those that look so far in the future, should always be taken with a big chunk of salt.
Ming-Chi Kuo has a solid track record, though - he predicted the 12-inch Retina MacBook in Oct. 2013, more than a year before it was released in March 2015.
