Apple will unveil the new iPhone 7 during a special event to be held in San Francisco, California, Wednesday, September 7: the presentation is much awaited by fans of technological things and analysts who are monitoring with interest the trend company, one of the richest in the world. As usual, Apple did not know anything about his new smartphone model, but in recent months in the papers and on tech sites have been circulating a lot of information, obtained from internal sources to some of the major Apple’s suppliers, who build components materially of its smartphones. The new iPhone 7 will be aesthetically similar to the previous model, but with several improvements inside: Apple this year seems to be willing to break the traditional cycle that presents a completely new model and its improvement the following year, maybe so to be able to present next year an iPhone very different occasion of its tenth year of existence. In the new smartphone this year there will still be a number of innovations, some of them long-awaited.
design
According to unofficial photographs circulated online, the new iPhone 7 will have such a design that the iPhone 6s, which in turn is equal to the iPhone 6. There will be some difference , albeit marginal: the lines around the edge of the phone and on the back, in correspondence with the antennas, should be removed or at least moved so as to be less intrusive; there will probably be at least one new color to choose from and the phone will be a bit ‘thinner thanks to the audio output for headphones removal (WHAT ?! Yes, we get there soon).
Color
there should be a couple of new colors, called “dark black” and “piano black”, which will replace the version “gray sidereal”. “Piano Black”, as the name suggests, is shiny black as the halftone keys of a piano. The two new colors will be joined by the existing “silver”, “gold” and “pink gold”.
Templates
As for some years, there will be two models with different screen sizes: 7 iPhone with 4.7-inch display and iPhone 7 Plus with 5.5-inch display. The screens have a definition as the current models, but offer a wider range of colors and detailed.
jack Nothing Here
. As had been anticipated at the beginning of summer, it is taken for granted the absence 7 from the iPhone audio output for the classic jack connector 3.5 mm, the circular one. The headphones. This means that for listening to music or make phone calls with headsets will be necessary wireless headphones or compatible with the only door remained on the phone, the Lightning, already used for charging and data transfer to computers. The new iPhone will be sold 7 probably with type Lightning ear, accompanied by a small adapter to be able to still use the old headphones with a 3.5 mm jack. It is also much talk of a new set of wireless headphones which Apple would have to work, but there are not many more details. Headphones without wires would make it more practical to listen to music from the phone when it is charging, the Lightning port already occupied by the loader.
Storage
for the first time, Apple is expected to sell iPhone from 32 GB of memory capacity, leaving the 16 GB model, it has long been considered unsuitable to store a sufficient amount of data including photos, music, applications and other file. Apple has always maintained that the memory limit can be exceeded due to its paid iCloud service, which allows you to store documents online, but 16 GB is still a few also for the management of the app alone, more and more heavy and must be for force physically present on the smartphone. The new iPhone will then have 32, 128 or 256 GB of memory depending on the model.
speed
KGI Securities, whose analysts are usually well informed about what happens around Apple, he says that inside the iPhone 7 will be an A10 processor 2.4 GHz, much faster and powerful than the A9 highway currently used for the iPhone 6s. IPhone 7 will have 2 GB of RAM, while the iPhone 7 Plus it will have 3 GB, also needed to better manage data of its dual cameras.
Camera
the iPhone has always been appreciated for its high quality of the photos that triggered due to their camera, details of which Apple annually invests tens of millions of dollars to improve the yield. Image stabilization, for now only available on Plus models, should be up on the smaller model, about two years after its introduction. The sensor will be more precise and defined, with some improvements as regards the shots in low light conditions, with the addition of a new type of LED flash. The most important change, however, will cover the iPhone 7 Plus, where Apple will experience for the first time a dual-camera system will serve to give greater depth of field, improve the selective focus and offer a few more options for zooming, so far non-existent and relegated to a simple digital function and not optical.
Home button
could be fixed and not a real button and really, who yields to the pressure of the finger and goes “click.” The Home button always existed on the iPhone, you need to activate the phone, unlock it with the fingerprint reader, to return to the main screen from any app to close applications and to start Siri. It is one of the few mechanical elements present on the iPhone and is under a lot of stress, being pressed continuously: just for technical reasons, in the past years has shown some weaknesses and it has been the basis of numerous reports of malfunctions. The new Home key should be devoid of mechanical movements, a simple surface that detects the presence of the finger and behaves accordingly, with a tiny magnetic motor below which mimics the “click” to give a feedback to the user. Something similar occurs now with the touchpad on the MacBook and with some of the Apple Watch functions.
Water resistant In recent
months has been said that Apple has decided to remove the audio output not only to recover approximately one millimeter thickness of the iPhone, but also to make his most water-resistant phones (other producers made waterproof smartphones without giving exit 3.5 mm audio, anyway). The new iPhone 7 will be able to stand for about 30 minutes, when submerged to a depth of one meter: a time more than sufficient to rescue the own telephone. According to some analysts, Apple has been working until the last of this feature, and its implementation has led to a delay in the production of new models.
Competition
the presentation of the new iPhone 7 arrives at a particular time for the smartphone market: on the one hand there is a certain saturation which led to a slowdown in sales, on the other hand there are problems for the largest mobile phone maker in the world and competitor of Apple, Samsung. At the end of last week, the South Korean company has suspended sales of its Galaxy Note 7, due to serious malfunctions of its battery, which in some cases exploded. Samsung has also ordered the withdrawal and replacement of the already sold models, for added precaution. The company pointed heavily on Galaxy Note 7, presented in mid-August, to make Apple competition in view of the holiday shopping season. Apple will probably take a bit ‘advantage, but according to analysts will sell iPhone still less than in the last months of 2015.
