1) SLEEK AND SLIM:
The iPhone 7 ditches the 3.5mm headphone jack and kept thickness to 7.1mm, but they have provided the lightning cable which makes it possible to connect the 3.5mm headphones to the phone. Instead, a wireless earphone is designed for users to listen to music and more. Plus, the ugly plastic antenna bands integrated into the rear are removed further.
2) MORE STORAGE:
iPhone 7's 256GB storage option finally comes to us, which is reasonable especially when it shipes with 12-megapixel dual-lens camera. The end of 16GB is a main iPhone 7 advantage over iPhone 6S/6 and fits the bill of many multimedia maniacs for 4k video shooting tasks
3) iOS 10:
I was damn excited to update this. And once I did that I wad kept busy by my phone for continuous 5 hrs.
4) FASTER NEXT-GEN A10 CHIP:
With the new A10 clip, there are distinct iPhone 7 advantages over older iPhones. It is 2X higher performance than iPhone 6, and 30 power reduction in the A10, 6-core processor paired in iPhone 7. iPhone 6s on A9 is pretty efficient and powerful. Now the A10 clip is making iPhone 7 the fastest smartphone.
5) BATTERY CAPACITY:
The pros of iPhone 7 also include longer battery life. As the headphone jack is removed, more space is freed up to store larger battery. According to Apple, iPhone 7 is up to 2 hours longerbattery compared with iPhone 6s, with the battery goes from 1, 715 mAh to 1, 960 mAh. Combined with iOS 10 and A10 benefits, this is quite a long battery life.
DISADVANTAGES:
1) SIMIALR DESIGN TO 6S:
One of the biggest iPhone 7 disadvantages is the similar design to iPhone 6s/6. Except the removal of headphone jack and thinner structure mentioned in iPhone 7 pros, there is no substantial redesign in iPhone 7. The overall design of iPhone 7 stays largely identical to that of iPhone 6s/6, making iPhone 7 less attractive.
2) ANNOYING LIMITATIONS IN FILE TRANSFER:
I checked it and guess what problem is still here for iPhone 7 on iOS 10. iPhone 7 users can't easily transfer and backup files like music, photos, videos from old iPhone 6s/Plus, iPhone SE to iPhone 7, let alone transfer iPhone 7 content to Mac/PC computer for backup unless they seek aids from the professional iPhone manager.
VERDICTS:
1) It looks almost exactly like the iPhone 6s and the iPhone 6 before it, more like an iPhone 6ss than a brand-new generation of iPhone.
2) Although there is no headphone jack, customers can still plug headphones into their iPhone 7, they just need an adapter.
3) The iPhone 7 comes with new EarPods that are almost exactly the same except they plug into the Lightning port, which is found only on Apple devices. That essentially forces you to carry around two pairs of headphones if you want to be sure you can plug into anything you want
4) Apple's choice of the inclusion of optical image stabilization has improved the image quality by a similar amount to Samsung. Apple has kept pace with the industry standards of image quality and as a pocket point and shoot style camera the iPhone 7 succeeds in the mission.
5) The iPhone 7 can be submerged in 3.3 feet of water for about 30 minutes. I got to know this from the Unicorn store.
