Everything You Need To Know About The New iPhone 7

in #news8 years ago

All of the information in this post are only rumors and they may or may not be in the final product. I tried my best to make this post as short as possible without leaving any important information. So without any further delay, here is what you should expect from the new iPhone 7.

Design:

The overall design of the iPhone 7 should look the same as the iPhone 6s with some minor differences. Most of the leaks are indicating that the new iPhone 7 will be :

  • redesigned antennas which now appear at the top and bottom of the phone, the rear bands are eliminated for a cleaner look.
  • New 'Space Black' color similar to the black Apple Watch option.
  • Dual-lens camera for iPhone 7 Plus.
  • No headphone jack, but a 3.5mm adapter is expected to come in the box. Otherwise, you can use either Bluetooth or the lightning port for sound.
  • The thickness of the iPhone 7 is said to be slimmer than the 7.1mm iPhone 6s.
  • Both the iPhone 7 and the iPhone 7 Plus will continue to feature protruding cameras.
  • Pressure-sensitive home button.
  • Water resistant.

Price:

The middle column is of mainland China prices, and the right is Hong Kong prices.
For the US, you can expect the price of the iPhone 7 to start from $649 and $100 more for its big brother.

Release date:


Apple is expected to show off its new iPhone 7 on September 7 at 10 a.m. PT. Pre-Orders begin on September 9th and the retail release on September 16th or 23rd.

Size:

4.7 inch with 1334×750p resolution for the iPhone 7 and 5.5 inch with 1920×1080p resolution for the iPhone 7 plus.

Storage:

Smallest storage size to increase from 16GB to 32GB and an expected 256GB model at the top end.

Battery:

iPhone 7 comes with 1960mAh and iPhone 7 plus with 2910mAh.
Some rumors suggest that they will feature Fast and Wireless charging.

Camera:

Dual-lens camera for iPhone 7 Plus with 2-3x optical zoom, f 1.9 aperture and 12 megapixel resolution.
For the regular iPhone 7, Apple is sticking to a single camera with f 1.9 aperture and 12 megapixel resolution, So you can expect an improved performance in low-light conditions for brighter and more detailed pictures.
There are also some rumors that Apple may include an Optical Image Stabilization in the iPhone 7 camera.

Speakers:


The removal of the headphone jack leave some space for a second speaker, so you can expect Apple to feature stereo sound in the iPhone 7.

Processor:


16nm FF+ InFO Apple A10 processor manufactured by TSMC.

Memory:

2GB LPDDR4 for the iPhone 7 and 3GB LPDDR4 for the iPhone 7 plus.

Operating System:


The new iPhone 7 is expected to ship with the new iOS 10 which should be a huge upgrade over iOS 9.3. The new iOS will introduce a smarter Siri that can command third-party apps.

How many iPhones Apple will release on September the 7th?

until recently apple was expected to release three variants of the iPhone 7, the iPhone 7 plus and the iPhone 7 pro. But after all, there will likely be no iPhone 7 pro.
Russia's Eurasian Economic Commission published Apple's official trademark filings for 13 devices among which only two phones are among these devices, iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 plus. Russia has always received every model of the iPhone that Apple has sold, This mean that there will be no iPhone 7 pro.



Personally, I think that most of the changes are minimal except for the lack of the headphone jack that may turn off a lot of people. Do you think that Apple made a wise decision about the design and the features of this new iPhone 7 ? Feel free to comment and tell us your opinion.

Sort:  

Looks like a good deal overall. I am one of those people who are put off by lack of a headphone jack, but then again I can always go with a Bluetooth headset and scrap my older one.

If the Bluetooth headphone/earphone come in the box, it will make a lot of people happy, specially if they look like the one in the picture below:

I Like the fact you commented about SOUND in your article - I'd think that's an important aspect/feature of the iPhone. Hope they do provide a Bluetooth connection in the near future.

And the other thing of interest to me - when you stated, "Both the iPhone 7 and the iPhone 7 Plus will continue to feature protruding cameras".

So thank you for your fine article.

That would do the trick. The headphone/earphone displayed look a lot lighter than what I've been using. :-)

Thank you, do you know something about 8 and X ?

I had an iPhone before but I have found that Android suits me much better in many ways. Still, great information in the article! Thanks
