Prior to Wednesday’s event, I didn’t much care about the appearance of my phone that much, but if I were to purchase the iPhone 7 Plus, bet your ass it would be in Apple’s new Jet Black option. The GPU inside the A10 is 240% faster than the world’s first iPhone and also twice as powerful as the GPU present inside the iPhone 6s.
Sales of wireless headphones at John Lewis have soared after Apple’s recent unveiling of its wireless Airpod headphones.
The iPhone 7 Plus boasts two cameras that shoot as one – a pair of 12-megapixel cameras (one wide angle, same as iPhone 7 and also a telephoto camera) with 2x optical zoom and digital zoom up to 10x, meaning high quality pics from further away and 6x zoom for 4K High resolution videos.
The new “AirPods” will work with Bluetooth-enabled devices made by Apple’s rivals, but they won’t have the ease-of-pairing that comes with Apple’s software.
Eliminating the standard analog jack freed up some space inside the new iPhones, allowing Apple to increase the battery size and add another speaker as it redesigned the interior of the device. The new iPhone may not be it.
In the UK, Apple said the iPhone 7 will be available from a starting price of £599 for the cheapest 32GB option.
While Series 1 of the Apple Watch was water-resistant to an extent (e.g.it could withstand a shower or getting splashed), the Series 2 models are now resistant up to 50 metres, meaning you can take them for swims in both pools and open stretches of water. Apple unveiled the new iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3 tablets and the iMac with 5K Retina display.
Other welcome additions are inbuilt Global Positioning System – meaning you can now track running routes completely independently of your paired iPhone – and an improved battery life, giving you that little bit longer inbetween charges.
The company revealed wired earphones that connect via Lightning as well as “AirPod” wireless earphones that implement their new Apple W1 wireless chip. AirPods will officially be available in late October.
What headphones do I get in the iPhone 7 box? Axon rather than wait for the iPhone 7.
