Leaked Information
If rumors are to be believed!

According to Evan Blass, the most likely release date should be 16 September 2016.
Rumours suggest that Apple is planning to ditch its smaller 16GB storage option in favour of a more generous 32GB base model.
Some leaks suggest that Apple may opt for the name "iPhone 6SE" instead of "iPhone 7" as it is an iterative update rather than a major design overhaul.
