Best Explained!"},"content":{"rendered":"\n

After the extreme success with the iPhone 6S series<\/a>, the expectations were really high for the 10th generation of the iPhone. Apple did not dishearten the iPhone lovers and released iPhone 7 & 7 Plus in 2016. This iPhone 7 series had broken the carrier’s all-time record for first-day pre-order sales. In May 2017, analytics research company Strategy Analytics announced that iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus were the best-selling smartphones worldwide during the first quarter of 2017. The iPhone 7 & the 7 plus were sold for 21.5 million and 17.4 million units, respectively. But after 4 years of the release is iPhone 7 Plus worth buying in 2022?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Release Date of iPhone 7 & 7 Plus<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Both the iPhone 7 & the 7 Plus were announced on September 7, 2016, in San Francisco by Apple CEO Tim Cook. Both the iPhone 7 & 7 Plus were released on September 16, 2016<\/strong>, as the 10th generation flagship device in the iPhone series. Apple released these together in numerous countries worldwide throughout September and October 2016. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One year later they were succeeded by the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus on September 22, 2017. And finally, iPhone 7 & 7 plus was discontinued on September 10, 2019<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Display And Design of iPhone 7 Series<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Apple is using a display in the iPhone 7 that’s 25 percent brighter than the display in the iPhone 6s. So it’s going to look brighter and clearer outdoors, especially in full sunlight. The display is also using a cinema-standard wide color gamut and end-to-end color management, for more vivid, saturated colors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple has used a 4.7″ Retina HD display. And for iPhone 7 plus a bit bigger size 5.5″ Retina HD display. Resolution is 1334X750 & 1920X1080 respectively for iPhone 7 & the iPhone 7 plus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple is proud of the bold move of removing the audio jack. But in pretty much every other aspect they’ve seemingly taken the conservative route. On the outside, the new iPhone looks basically the same as the iPhone 6\/6s. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another new feature found on the iPhone 7 would be IP67 certification. This protects the device against dust and water (limited protection). You can let your iPhone fall into the toilet or bathtub without having it drown. Another fact that the mechanized Home button is not there anymore. Rather it is a digitized version that delivers haptic feedback at different levels of sensitivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The overall design of the iPhone 7 is actually very impressive when you consider the changes that have taken place. The waterproofing always adds thickness, as the seals will need some space within the device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new dual speakers, which fire out of the earpiece and the bottom of the phone took space too, which starts to explain why the iPhone 7 is 7.1mm thick, the same as the iPhone 6S, and 0.2mm more than the iPhone 6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also to give space for the dual speakers and the other slight changes iPhone 7 is 7.1mm thick. The same as the iPhone 6S, and 0.2mm more than the iPhone 6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Performance & Capability of iPhone 7 Series<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Apple improves the processor in each iteration of the iPhone. In the iPhone 7, Apple added some impressive features for the best chip performance for that time. The A10 Fusion chipset has a four-core CPU (the first in an iOS device). It combines power and efficiency in a unique way. It is “incredibly thin” and was made on TSMC’s 16 nm FinFET+ process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are two high-performance cores in the iPhone 7 series. These are 40 percent faster than the A9 chip in the iPhone 6s. Even twice as fast as the A8 chip in the iPhone 6. There are also two high-efficiency cores that run at 1\/5th of the speed of the high-performance cores. These preserve battery when doing tasks that aren’t system intensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An Apple-designed performance controller switches between the two core systems. It makes sure the correct processes are running for maximum performance and maximum battery. When doing something that requires a more powerful CPU, such as gaming, the high-power cores run. When something doesn’t require a lot of power, the high-efficiency cores get turned on to draw less power. So activities like sending a message or an email would consume very less power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Along with the four-core CPU, the iPhone 7 features a six-core graphics chip. It is 60 percent faster than the A9 and three times faster than the A8. At the same time, it draws one-third less power than the A9 and half as much power as the A8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is an embedded M10 motion coprocessor in the A10 Fusion chip. It captures motion-based data from the compass, accelerometer, and gyroscope to power Apple’s health and fitness capabilities without significant power drain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RAM of iPhone 7 & 7 plus<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Due to the increased demands of a dual-camera system and the software necessary to process images, Apple has equipped the iPhone 7 Plus with 3GB RAM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The iPhone 7, which uses only a single-lens camera, continues to have 2GB RAM like the iPhone 6s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The camera of iPhone 7 & 7 plus<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The iPhone 7 includes a 12-megapixel rear-facing camera with a quad-LED “True Tone” flash. It has a wide aperture of f\/1.8. Also, the standard-size iPhone 7 model adds optical image stabilization \u2013 a feature that was previously exclusive to Plus models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The iPhone 7 Plus includes a second 12-megapixel telephoto lens<\/a>, which can be used to achieve 2\u00d7 optical zoom, and up to 10\u00d7 digital zoom. However, the telephoto camera lacks optical image stabilization<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The iPhone 7 and 7 Plus record video with single-channel mono audio. Still, photos with 6.5 megapixels (3412\u00d71920) can be captured during video recording. The front-facing camera was upgraded to a 7-megapixel sensor with automatic image stabilization. The iPhone 7 and 7 Plus were the first iPhones to be able to record 1080p<\/a> video using the front camera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Battery Life Of iPhone 7 & iPhone 7 Plus Compared In 2022<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"iPhone

As always Apple releases a bigger version for each model with a bigger display and battery. The iPhone 7 Plus has a bigger battery than the iPhone 7. The iPhone 7 Plus has a 2900 mAh battery while the iPhone 7 offers a 1960 mAh battery capacity. The larger display and higher resolution of the Plus do eat up some of the advantages. But it still lasts substantially longer. You can see the comparison clearly from the below chart. By checking the below specs you can decide if the iPhone 7 or 7 Plus is worth buying in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
