After months of waiting and constant rumours about apple’s latest flagship devices, the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus are finally here. The American company announced the two devices in San Francisco. The devices are almost similar to the iPhone 6 and 6S with just little tweaks, one of them being a funky home button. The device will be released on September 16 in 30 countries.

Look and feel

Apple has replaced the grey colour in the new iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus with Matte Black and Glossy Black to join Rose Gold, Gold and Silver. The new colours are meant to distinguish iPhone 7 for iPhone 6 users and are only available in the 256 and 128GB models. The device is aesthetically similar to its predecessor, but the antennae bands have been moved to the edges.

Performance

The new 64-bit 4-core CPU Apple A10 Fusion processor on the device has ramped up the graphics and is 40 percent faster than the A9 processor in the iPhone 6 and two times faster than A8 processers. The A10 Fusion processor combines power and efficiency in a unique way and ensures the smooth running of the new Apple IOS 10. The iPhone 7 has a 2GB RAM while the iPhone 7 Plus has a 3GB RAM due to the increased demands of a dual-camera system and the software necessary to process images.

Other additional features

Apple has ditched the 3.5mm jack on the iPhone 7 and replaced it with the lightning AirPods that connect wirelessly via the lightning port. The move to remove the 3.5mm jack is aimed at creating room for more technology. To create a smooth transition, Apple has included a 3.5mm adapter on each box. The only downside is that you cannot listen to music while the phone is charging.

Longer battery life

According to the company, people upgrading from iPhone 6S to iPhone 7 will get at least 2 hours of additional battery life due to processor improvements and a stronger battery.

Summary

Apple claims that the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus are the most advanced smartphones in the market. Stay tuned for more news on the price and availability of the device in the country.
