The new iPhone 7 hits shelves this week. Big changes and advances for this new edition of the iPhone. Should you spend the $649 and get one?
Rick and Sully take a look! Have a listen:
Though the product's new features are usually the highlight of iPhone arrivals, it's what's absent that is making waves: the removal of the headphone jack. Observers of Apple say the company is banking on the expanding use of wireless technology, with the hopes of making the iPhone lighter and waterproof.
1. Improved Battery Life
While still lacking compared to its android rivals, the iPhone 7 does have improved battery life, giving you more juice when you're on the road. Expect 10-15% better battery life.
2. Dual-camera system
Capture even more special moments and from different angles as the new iPhone offers more photography and video-recording options. The major additions are dual 12-megapixel lenses, able to snap SLR-quality photos and create special effects.
3. Siri enhancements
Siri will go deeper with commands, searching within apps on your phone to find the answer to your question or request. The intricacy sounds impressive, especially if Siri can help settle those bar arguments.
4. No Headphone Jack
Are we all ready to go wireless all the time?
5. Waterproof
Maybe you're caught in a storm, spill your beer or that trip to the swimming pool went horribly wrong. One of the reasons the headphone jack went away is to allow for waterproof technology, one that's a blessing for those that like to spend a lot of time outdoors.
6. Storage
Many of us tape our swings; unfortunately, videos take a major bite out of a phone's storage, making the saving process an endeavor. However, the iPhone 7 has 32GB instead of 16GB, and it looks like the next two tiers will be 128GB and 256GB, meaning you won't have any storage worries.
