This is NOT a drill! The iPhone 7 is here and it is WATERPROOF
The moment we've all been waiting for is finally here! Apple launched it's new generation of iPhone yesterday, and it is "different in every way!"
There are number of amazing improvements (hi-five for water proof iPhones!), but also a few things we're unsure of…
It's waterproof
FINALLLY! The iPhone 7 and 7 Plus can be submerged in water for 30 minutes without incurring any damage.
It comes in two new groovy colours
Space Gray is a thing of the past! Two new sleek shades were announced yesterday: Black and jet black. Apple have suggested that if your are opting for the glossy jet black iPhone, to invest in a case as it is prone to scratches.
Cameras
The iPhone 7 has a new wide angle camera, which Apple claims is 60% faster and 30% more energy-efficient than previous models. The iPhone 7 Plus has been built with additional camera, which offers optical zoom and digital zoom for photos.
It's dust resistant
You no longer need to worry about getting dust and dirt trapped in the phone!
No headphone jack
The new iPhone DOESN'T have a headphone socket (madness). In order to listen to music, you must use Apple's headphones with a lightning connector.
New home button
You no longer physically press the home button on the iPhone 7 like you can with older models. Instead, it's pressure sensitive and reacts with "taptic feedback," which means vibration.
Graphics
Instagram looks really, really good on this new iPhone model.
Memory
Apple has ditched the 16gb and 64gb models across the board. The new phones can be purchased with 32gb, 128gb or 256gb.
Battery life
iPhone 7's battery lasts up to 2 hours longer than the iPhone 6 according to Apple, and the iPhone 7 Plus' battery lasts up to 1 hour longer than iPhone 6s Plus.YAY!
The iPhone 7 and 7 Plus is available to pre-order from tomorrow, and prices will start at €779.
