Apple has finally unveiled the specs and features of the much-awaited iPhone 7. Though it may look similar to the iPhone 6S launched last year in September, Apple has smartly added lots of specs making it different from its previous model. Let's take a look at the iPhone 7 specifications and find the out what's new.
Longer Battery Life
iPhone 7 provides its users with a better battery life, running for an additional 2 hours as compared to the iPhone 6S. Now users can enjoy a talk time of around 14 hours on 3G, wireless video playback of around 14 hours, along with the fantastic wireless audio playback of up to 40 hours.
Operating System
The most tempting thing about Apple's latest launch is its operating system iOS 10. Packed with a bunch of features and a compelling design, iOS 10 can be considered as the most powerful operating system on a smartphone. This time, it has launched iPhone 7 as a more personalised and playful gadget that will make it easier for expressing your emotions, finding and responding to notifications quickly, making quick payments, managing your home tasks, etc.
Processor
Without giving a second thought, the A10 Fusion processor on iPhone 7 beats the other existing processors with ease. iPhone 7's speed is 1.4 times more than its previous 6S model, and this incredible processing power makes it the king of this market. It has a 64-bit, 4-core processor, where two cores ensure better performance, while the remaining two cores provide a longer battery life.
No Headphone Jack, New Wireless Earphones
Time to bid goodbye to the 3.5mm audio jack!! There were speculations regarding this ‘no-jack' technology, and finally, Apple has confirmed it. The wired EarPods will be connected through the Lightning port, while its wireless earphones, AirPods, are nothing short of magical!! With its built-in mic in AirPods, you can now respond to your calls or invoke Siri as well.
Storage
In the previous models of Apple, it was disheartening to see the absence of 32GB storage. For the individuals who were unable to buy iPhone with a massive capacity of 64GB, and were also resistant to get the one with a tiny 16GB storage, Apple has made a way out with the introduction of iPhone 7 with 32GB storage. Yes, you heard it right! iPhone 7 will be launched in three different versions: 32GB, 128GB, and 256GB. As per the latest updates, the glossy Jet Black version will be available in 128GB and 256GB only.
Camera
With its powerful front camera of 7MP and the rear camera of 12MP, iPhone 7 users can click drop-dead images with the perfect blend of colours and clarity. So, all the selfie lovers, get ready to capture some beautiful pictures with this smartphone.
This exclusive smartphone weighing just 4.87 ounces (138 gms) is available in mesmerising colours including Rose Gold, Gold, Silver, Black, and Jet Black. Just like iPhone 6S, it shows the dimensions of 7.1 mm. We can expect iPhone 7 to hit the Indian markets by 7th October, with its prices starting from Rs.60,000. As there is no certainty about the price yet, we'll update you regarding any change in the rates further.
