At the same time, you can also order the first-generation Apple Watch that’s benefitting from some upgrades, including the new chip that’s part of the new model.

The other black colour features the usual matte finish you’re already familiar with since the iPhone 6 launch. Analyst Ian Fogg at IHS Technology saw “courageous risks” in the iPhone 7 design, with it looking similar to its predecessor; reserving the best camera for the large-screen version; abandoning the traditional earphone jack, and having to live up to expectations regarding water resistance.

The iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus come in 32, 128, and 256GB configurations, with five color options: Silver, Gold, Rose Gold, Black, and Jet Black, the new glossy shade.

According to Kuo, “While an attractive addition for avid picture takers and professional photographers, the iPhone 7 Plus dual-camera is not a mass-market killer application yet”.

The new iPhone does not have a revolutionary new design.

It’s worth pointing out that Apple does include a pair of EarPods in the box that connect to the iPhone 7 over Lightning, and it’s quite possible you’re more than happy to use either these or the iPhone’s new stereo speakers for listening to audio.

You probably would not be able to tell the iPhone 7 and iPhone 6S apart if you just glanced. But changes and alterations have been done and some are huge while others are extremely questionable, like both models missing a headphone jack.

Business Insider has contacted Apple Australia for comment.

Which sort of defeats the goal of buying it.

What do you think of the new iPhone 7?

Both phones will be available in several colours, with prices starting at $1,048.
