Apple has just presented to all of us the new iPhone 7 in its two variants, sporting an incredible brightness that we did not see from the iPhone 4, and that is the new “jet black” model has left us all speechless. Meanwhile, this is not the only novelty, the devices will receive a new and special treatment, at the same time that the Home button has been internally redesigned to acquire 3D Touch capabilities thanks to the renewed Taptic Engine. Know everything about the iPhone 7, which will allow us to take full advantage of its only physical front button. Meanwhile, the dual camera on the Plus model has also come true.
However, we did not want to miss one of the most relevant news, the iPhone 7 in its two variants is fully waterproof, IP67 certification.
IPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus camera improvements
The camera is not far behind, 50% more opening than in the previous model, and both devices, the normal and the plus, will have an optical image stabilizer, accompanied by four True Tone flashes and a speed sensor 60% faster than the previous one. The camera has been one of the most important sections, the guys from Cupertino have taken it seriously, they have even added an API that will allow storing photos in RAW. But this is not all, the front camera will have automatic image stabilization and 7MP so that we can take the best selfies. It does not increase the rear camera, which continues to have a total 12MP, despite the huge hardware system that powers it.
Meanwhile the iPhone 7 Plus camera will feature two 12MP cameras, one camera with what is known as a "fisheye" lens, while the other will retain the traditional focus, allowing for photos with an almost professional focus. The new button that will appear on the camera will allow us to perform a really interesting Optical Zoom and almost without losing quality at all. This zoom has been improved up to four times based on the previous system according to the Apple executive team. Photography lovers are going to really end up loving the new iPhone camera. The improvements in low light conditions are quite evident, a clear post-processing problem that dragged the iPhone 6s.
The screen has also been improved
The new screen will have 25% more brightness, while the colors become oversaturated, in true Samsung style, including new color maintenance systems, all designed in collaboration with the Instagram team, the most popular social network in the world. moment. This improvement is known as "Wide Colors Screen" and promises that the new functions of the 3D Touch of the hand of the camera and the resolution of the screen change the inclination for the AMOLED of the last years, giving a "special brightness" to the new colors, which has always been a saturation increased. 4.000 million colors will accompany Apple's new operating system, at the same time that the screen, despite being LCD, will capture all the attention.
Stereo speakers and goodbye to the 3,5mm jack
The rumor mill is true, the 3,5mm Jack disappears, meanwhile in the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7Plus case we can find Lighnign EarPods, as well as a Lightning-Jack 3,5 connection adapter so that no one can feel discriminated against .
The speakers, meanwhile, become front, with an improved audio stereo system. Apple continues to present new features of the iPhone 7 that were not within the rumor mill, and we are all really happy. It seems that the step to Lightning from the 3,5mm Jack will generate much less problems than we expected, and Apple has decided not to take out the quarters with the adapters. Of course, they have taken the opportunity to criticize a totally outdated jack.
AirPods join the party too
Apple's wireless headphones could not be absent, the Cupertino company insisted on killing the cables and is succeeding, it has created two independent and totally wireless headphones that are loaded in a special box and include a microphone. To connect them, just bring them closer to the iPhone and will take advantage of NFC technology, with a design really similar to traditional EarPods. Apple has created school with these new headphones. With a new chip called W1 created by and for it. These headphones are a masterpiece of technology.
New Hardware
The processor named as A10 Fusion promises up to 50% more power than the previous one, composed of four processors, two of low consumption and two dedicated to power. The first two will consume only 1/5 of what the rest consume. At the same time, the graphics processor has been improved, integrated with the A10 chip and called the most powerful processor that we can find in a mobile device.
In videogame tests we have been able to appreciate spectacular graphics performance, never seen before on a mobile device.

They talk about everything less about the bateriaaa, where it is an unknown territory for apple!
First of all congratulations on the keynote that I have followed for many years on this page. As for my opinion on the iPhone 7 is good, they have improved it in everything except in the design that remains the same, but I do not dislike it either.
The highlight for me:
- The battery life, 2 more hours.
- Power with the new processor.
- Resistant to water and dust, note that this is important.
- Home button improvement.
- The new black colors.
It is curious that most of you liked the glossy black color more, the matte black attracts my attention more.
I don't think I would buy it, because my iPhone 5s is doing quite well and I don't need to change it. Besides, next year is the tenth anniversary of the iPhone and they will surely bring out a more innovative iPhone, especially in design and I prefer to wait at least one more year.
But hey, what really caught my attention are the AirPods, what a pass.
Seriously, you can not use the headphones and charge the phone at the same time? Am I the only one who seems like a robbery?
Pos a if at first what I liked the most is that it DOES NOT EXPLODE. Too bad that taking advantage of the failures of others is not the style of Apple, that if Samsung and competition, we would have had a good laugh.
Can't use wired headphones while charging the device ???? Wow …
Surely a manufacturer takes out an adapter to charge the device and use the helmets at the same time.
I have been acquiring the last 5 generations of iPhone and surely I caught the 7, because one of my terminals is dying.
But I think I must ask: don't you think that since Steve Jobs left, Apple has stopped innovating? They continue to release products that work to death, yes, but all the news that they have announced for the iPhone7, were already in other smartphones.
Since Steve Jobs rejoined the Apple staff, the gadgets that have been released have always been products of distinction, quality and INNOVATION. They have always brought something to the market that made them unique. However, this time I don't see it that way.
I hope they are saving themselves for the iPhone 2017, because if not, I fear that the innovative side of Apple died when the ideas of the late Steve Jobs, which have surely been exploding until now, ran out.
Let's touch wood ...
