Apple unveils the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus

As expected, Apple has just formalized, during its annual keynote, its new smartphones: the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus.Two products that bring their share of new features with in particular a double photo sensor, water resistance and increased power.

This year more than ever, the iPhone 7 will have been at the heart of all rumors.And, however, this is not usual in the Californian manufacturer, the Leaks have multiplied about it, so much so that many characteristics, and even its design, became known for several weeks before its announcement.As expected too, it is not a model that Apple presents, but two, since it is also necessary to count on an iPhone 7 Plus.

The iPhone 7

Let's start with the most classic.Anxious not to see too large, Apple remains in a 4.7 -inch format with its iPhone 7, whose design has not radically changed at first glance.You have to turn to the details of the aluminum cabin to detect the first signs of evolution.

A smooth evolution

First there is the disappearance of the jack intended for helmets, which is replaced by a second speaker.Mobile users will therefore have to turn to Bluetooth headsets or headphones to enjoy their music in mobility, or opt for headphones compatible with the Lightning Port of the Terminal, like those provided in the box.There is also a jack adapter to Lightning and Apple offers airpods for sale, wireless headphones.

Otherwise, and while the antennas have so far been clearly visible on the back of the device, Apple makes them more discreet, making them follow the upper and lower limits of the mobile.In terms of colors, Apple offers a version with a shiny black finish (Glossy), a matt black, golden, gray and golden finish.

The Home button has been revised since it is no longer physical, but tactile and uses the haptic engine found on the Apple Watch and iPhone screen.It will therefore be possible to carry out different actions with different types of support.

Water resistant, and dust

Apple took the opportunity to make its new iPhone resistant to water and dust, with IP67 certification thanks to a whole series of joints.

RAW and stabilization

The iPhone 7 has a brand new 12-megapixel sensor with a quad-tone flash, a goal with a f/1 opening.8 and optical stabilization, it was time!The iPhone 7 now has an API to shoot in RAW.At the front, it is now a 7 megapixel sensor that we find for selfies with digital stabilization.A house ISP is part that Apple announces as ultra fast in the processing of photos.

More light and colors

On the technical characteristics side, Apple would keep a 720p slab on this model, offering a density of 330 ppi, as well as the 3D Touch which makes it possible to detect different pressure levels.Apple announces 25% in addition maximum brightness, and a possibility of displaying more shades of colors, like the iPad Pro.

Apple A10 Fusion: The most powerful Soc?

It is an A10 Fusion chip, with four clocked hearts: two high performance and two low -consumption cores, which animates the mobile with performance increases of around 40% against the Apple A9 of the iPhone 6S.We also note the presence of a new GPU with six cores.Apple then announces the most powerful mobile chip ever found in a smartphone.We will not fail to check this assertion during a comparison.Apple offers iPhone 7 in version 32, 128 or 256 GB.

The iPhone 7 Plus : double capteur photo

The one that brings the most novelties to Apple is the iPhone 7 Plus.If he looks a lot like the smallest model, he ultimately shares few characteristics in common with him.

In its 5.5 inch format, the terminal has an IPS 1080p slab in place of the 720p, and its RAM goes from 2 to 3 GB.The A10 Fusion chip is apparently the same.

The detail visible is obviously the double dorsal photo sensor of this iPhone 7 Plus with two 12 megapixel sensors.One takes care of the Grand Angle when the other takes care of the close subjects, with an X2 optical zoom and an X10 digital zoom as we could read in the hybrid-digital zoom patent of Apple Apple.The double sensor also allows you to have a 3D vision of the scene, to cut the subjects and bring a background blur (field depth), but it will be necessary to wait since this feature will arrive later.

iOS 10

Finally, concerning the software interface, it is obviously iOS 10 which makes its big beginnings here.The new version of the mobile OS brings a lot of new features, which you can consult on our dedicated article.It will be available publicly on September 13.

4G category 9

The iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus support category 9 4G for a speed for download of 450 Mbps.In terms of autonomy, Apple announces an increase of 2 hours of autonomy for the iPhone 7 and 1 hour more for the iPhone 7 Plus.

Price and availability
