Amarhe aya esiya ekhwaza ukuba i-iPhone 7 esiza kuyibona kulo nyaka iyakuba yinto encinci yokuyila ngokutsha yangoku endaweni yotshintsho olupheleleyo njengoko iApple isiqhele ukuza kuthi ga ngoku. Ngokwale mithombo akukho mntu unokuyibiza ngegama kodwa ihlala ikufutshane kakhulu kwiApple, olona tshintsho luza kuza ngo-2017, kunyaka olandelayo, kunye ne-iPhone 8. Ewe, kuba ukuba kulo nyaka i-iPhone 7 ayilulo utshintsho olukhulu kuyilo, kunyaka olandelayo ngekhe kubekho i-iPhone 7s, kodwa ngokuthe ngqo iApple izakuvula i-iPhone 8 entsha kraca. Nditsho noJohn Gruber, oligunya kule micimbi, uthethile malunga nokuba ikamva le-iPhone 8 linokubonakala njani ngokusekwe koko akuvileyo.
I-iPhone 7 iya kuba notshintsho ezimbalwa xa kuthelekiswa nemodeli yangoku, ubuncinci imodeli ye-4,7-intshi. Enye into iya kuba yi-iPhone 7 Plus, ebonakala ngathi inekhamera ezimbini, iSinxibelelanisi seSmart kunye ne3GB ye-RAM. Zombini ezi modeli ziya kusilela kwisinxibelelanisi sejackphone, kwaye uyilo olupheleleyo lwewotshi luya kufana kakhulu nolwangoku, ngokuxhomekeka ekubeni iApple iyakukhetha ukubabonelela ngezithethi ezibini emazantsi okanye igcine isithethi sangoku.
Nangona kunjalo, i-iPhone 8 ukuba iya kuba luphuculo olupheleleyo lwesiphelo. I-Gruber iqinisekisa ukuba umphambili wesiphelo uya kuhlala ngokupheleleyo kwiscreen. Isazisi sokuchukumisa kunye nekhamera engaphambili, eziyizinto ezinokuphazamisa eso sikrini, ziya kudityaniswa kuyo, kwaye izithethi kunye nezinye iisenzi ziya kuba ngasemva. Isikrini siya kuhamba yonke indlela ukuya emaphethelweni, ishiya isakhelo esiphantse singabonakali. UGruber uthi uyabuthandabuza ubungakanani besixhobo: IApple inokunciphisa ukugcina ii-intshi zesikrini sangoku, okanye inokugcina ubungakanani besixhobo ngokufumana izikrini ezinkulu. Ukuba kunjalo, le iya kuba lityholo lokwenyani eliza kukhokelela ekuthengisweni kwe-iPhone ukufikelela kwiirekhodi ezintsha, kodwa kulo nyaka i-Apple izakuba nobunzima nge-iPhone 7 efana naleyo ikhoyo ngoku, nangona kungasoloko kukho imimangaliso.
