Now a fresh report from Wall Street Journal claims the same.  According to WSJ citing person familiar with the matter reports that the upcoming iPhone's base model will start with 32GB internal storage and ditch the 16GB storage variant.

The next iPhone will reportedly come in three storage variants of 32GB, 128GB and 256GB. Currently both the 4.7-inch iPhone 6 and 5.5-inch iPhone 6s Plus comes in 16GB, 64GB and 128GB models.
