The new phone features dual rear camera, as well as being resistant to water and dust; no longer has audio jack traditional

Apple today introduced in California a new version of its iPhone, 9 years after the first smartphone of the company (and beyond that created with Motorola Rokr). This new equipment will be released the 16th of this month in the US.

As indicated previous rumors, the new iPhone 7 has two versions (standard with 4.7-inch screen, and Plus, with 5.5-inch screen), the same as the iPhone 6 and 6S; maintain the resolution and size, and in fact the design of the phone is almost identical to the iPhone 6S; The most noticeable change is in the repositioning of plastic lines that separate the metal parts of the housing, and they are there to allow operation of the antennas, which in the case of the new version jet black (all black) and no they are visible at all.

the camera, double

But now the larger version has two rear cameras, a path already transited LG (with the G5 and the brand new V20), Huawei with its P9 and HTC with the One M8, among others. Plus the camera system iPhone 7 uses technology LinX, an Israeli company that Apple bought last year, and using information from the two cameras (with different focal length) to combine and achieve something similar to an optical zoom (of 2 increases, according to Apple), and overcome the historical limitations of smartphones, which is to achieve an optical magnification without thicken the phone profile.

the Huawei P9, for example, has a normal camera and another monochrome and combines information both in the same image, to achieve more wealth in the shades of the colors; LG, meanwhile, uses two cameras, one with a normal lens and a wide angle, and allows you to switch between them, but not use them simultaneously. And Nokia, which with 42 megapixel Lumia 1020 allowed to make a sort of zoom (cut) without losing image quality; and companies like Samsung and Lenovo, who tested with smartphones with cameras traditional townhouses.

The two chambers of the iPhone 7 Plus.

Apple According to the proposal, with a wide angle lens and a telephoto, can avoid this, while integrating two increases in the chamber; the jump from one shot to the other (ie, zoom) is transparent to the user; when the wide-angle image shows no increase, when it passes to the other lens (zoom fixed) shows the approach. If the user wants closer, and it becomes a digital zoom.

This dual lens system also allows you to combine the two images and play with the depth of field of the camera, separating what is in the bottom of what is in front; is an effect known as bokeh, although this is as an update later in the year.

The 4.7-inch iPhone 7, meanwhile, now has optical image stabilization, as was the model Plus.

in both cases, it is a 12-megapixel sensor. On the iPhone 7 has an aperture f / 1.8, the same as the wide-angle iPhone 7 Plus; but the tele this second model has an aperture f / 2.8.

Suman, both models, a flash four LEDs to give 50% more light and better control color temperature in the catch. The company says the iPhone 7 is 60% faster than the previous one when capturing images.

The front camera is 7 megapixels, an improvement over the 5 megapixel previous models.

No audio connector

the other major change in the design of the phone is the absence of a traditional audio connector (the miniplug of 3.5 mm); Apple is committed to the use of the port Lightning (such as your competitors are doing with the USB-C, as Lenovo with the Moto Z) or Bluetooth wireless headphones.

An advantage of the iPhone is that the Lightning port supports analog audio, so an adapter is only necessary to use conventional headphones. The company included in the box adapter Lightning analog audio to use the older headphones.

In the case of equipment Leeco and Lenovo (with USB-C port for audio) must use . special headphones that incorporate audio converter analog-to-digital

Remove the connector also allows the (but not waterproof) iPhone waterproof and dust; other manufacturers (Sony Samsung, especially with the S7 Galaxy and Galaxy Note 7) achieved the same while maintaining the analog audio port. The new iPhone 7 also has stereo speakers, the first time the company has something like your smartphone, although it had done in the latest iPad tablets.



The iPhone 7 is water resistant (but not waterproof).

Apple also introduced the AirPods: wireless headset, with 5 hours of battery life; It can be linked with several devices at once; the user defines what that supplies the audio. The headphones are able to detect when they are in the user’s ear and when not to flash on and off. Pairing (via Bluetooth) do automatically, the company says, when the box that serves as a charger opens. They also have an integrated microphone

Samsung, Bragi, Lenovo and Syllable, among others, have stereo headphones of this type (independent and one for each ear) but this degree of integration with other devices.

will be priced at $ 159 and will be available in October; come in a box that has an internal battery that offers 24 hours of charging.

the company also changed the start button: it is no longer mechanical, but is a fixed part, sensitive to different levels of pressure (as the rest of the screen, and touchpads the Mac) to activate different commands. Maintains the biometric sensor, of course

New A10

The iPhone 7 processor has a new processor, the A10 Fusion, a quad-core ARM chip, and 3.3 billion transistors.; It is 40 percent faster than the iPhone 6S (A9), according to Apple. Previous rumors indicated the announcement that the base would be 2 GB of RAM for the iPhone 7 and 3 GB for 7 Plus; it must wait for the first tests to confirm that this is so.

The company says its design has two cores of high performance and two less powerful but consume a fifth of the other pair of cores a scheme using other companies with ARM processors (four, eight or ten cores) called big.LITTLE. The system uses these two “slow” cores for menial tasks, thus extending the battery life. The GPU has 6 cores and is 25 percent faster than the A9, with a third of the power consumption of the graphics processor A9.

The interior design and the absence of audio jack let you a team with more space for the battery: 1960 mAh for iPhone 7 (against the 1715 mAh 6S) and 2910 mAh for 7 Plus (versus 2750 that has the 6S plus), according to previous leaks; the company did not confirm this information, but said the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus are the two best autonomy have in the history of the iPhone; iPhone 7 makes 2-hour battery life than the iPhone 6S, according to the company.

The new Start button is no longer mechanical, but capacitive (and it is capable of detecting degrees of pressure on the sensor).

The price of the iPhone 7

The base price in the US iPhone 7 is $ 649 with 32 GB of storage; the iPhone 7 Plus is $ 769 with 32 GB; both are also available in versions of 128 and 256 GB. The company also eliminated the 16GB version for the iPhone 6S (now available in 32 and 64 GB); only the iPhone is still with 16 GB base storage.

With the iPhone 7 also debuts a new color, all black (jet black), only available in versions of 128 and 256 GB.
