Q: How does the iPhone 7/7 Plus look different from the previous iPhone?
Answer: iPhone 7/7 Plus The general appearance is the same as that of the previous generation. The visible changes are that the 3.5mm headphone interface has been canceled, and now it is connected to the headphone through the Lighting interface, and dual cameras have been added to the 7 Plus. Although the camera is also protruding this time, the camera has a radian transition connection with the body, which is not directly protruding; Both iPhone 7s now feature a 4 LED dual color temperature flash.
(IP67 waterproof and dustproof and 4 LED dual color temperature flash lamp are added)
Of course, there are still some unseen changes. Today, the iPhone 7 earpiece also has a speaker function, which can form a stereo effect with the speaker at the bottom of the body; IP67 waterproof and dustproof is now added to iPhone 7( Galaxy Note7 For IP68), it is OK to dive for 30 minutes within one meter of water depth, but Apple will not provide warranty in case of water ingress.
In addition, the iPhone 7 is the same size and thickness as the previous generation, but the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus are 5g and 4g lighter than the 6s/6s Plus respectively.
Q: Is there any big change in the camera this time?
Answer: iPhone 7 The aperture of the camera on has been upgraded to f/1.8 (f/2.2 for 6s), the front camera has also been upgraded to 7 million pixels, and optical anti shake has also been added to the 4.7 inch iPhone 7.
The dual camera is one of the highlights of this iPhone upgrade, but it is only equipped on the 7 Plus, which is a combination of a 28mm wide-angle lens (f/1.8) and a 56mm telephoto lens (f/2.8). Apple officially promotes the 2x optical zoom function, which is actually just switching to the telephoto lens when you use the 2x zoom, not the real optical zoom.
(The depth of field effect can be seen in the photos taken in "Portrait Mode")
One of the major functions of this dual camera is the "portrait mode". When you take a person's main body, you can visualize the background behind the main body, highlight the character itself, and turn it into a photo with very strong depth of field effect. You can also calculate the degree of virtualization through different scenes. However, this function cannot be used immediately when the iPhone 7 is launched, It needs to be added through late OTA, and it is believed that it should be postponed to optimize the algorithm.
In short, this dual camera can bring better results when you shoot people and distant landscapes.
Q: What kind of chip is A10 Fusion?
A: Apple said it was a quad core processor, but it was not. It was just a 2+2 processor. Two high-frequency cores were used to handle large tasks, and two low-frequency cores were used to handle some lightweight tasks. The four cores could not be turned on at the same time. This should be in order to get better endurance. In fact, the official said that endurance would be better than 6s More powerful. Foreign media said that iPhone 7 uses six core GPU, and the specific parameters are estimated to be known only after the official launch. In terms of positive performance, the official said that the two high-frequency cores in A10 Fusion are 40% faster than the A9 in 6s, while the GPU processing capacity is 50% faster than that of the previous generation. The GPU should be better than 9.7-inch iPad Pro The lower frequency version A9X above is faster, but 12.9 inch iPad Pro In comparison, it should be inferior.

At the same time, the scoring data of 7/7 Plus appeared on GeekBench after the press conference. It shows that 7 is still equipped with 2GB of memory, while 7 Plus is equipped with 3GB of memory. It seems that the credibility is quite high. But Apple didn't mention anything at the press conference. If it comes true, it will be the first time in the history of the iPhone that such a situation occurs, After all, it has never been tried before that there is a performance gap between the two iPhones, but it is not mentioned.
Q: How is the Home button of iPhone 7/7 Plus different from the previous one?
Answer: iPhone 7 The Home key above is no longer a physical key, but a touch key, but it can provide you with a kind of simulated real physical feedback through the TAPTIC ENGINE located at the Home key. If you have experienced the Force Touch touch pad , then you may know what the experience is, but according to Foreign media reports The experience of this new Home key is relatively ordinary. When the Home key is pressed, the whole bottom of the machine body will vibrate. The physical feedback of actual pressing is not really simulated. Compared with the touchpad on the MacBook, there is a lot of difference.

Q: What's special about bright black compared with other colors?
A: The new color matching bright black adopts the anodizing and polishing process, and the finished effect is very close to that of glass. The foreign media said that it feels great. Although it looks like it will slip away, it actually holds very tightly. But the big problem is that the color matching is not scratch resistant. At the on-site experience meeting, some reporters have found that many bright black iPhone 7 has small scratches, And Apple also suggests that users who buy this color should use it with the protective case. Then the problem comes. If I wear a case, who knows that I bought a new iPhone 7? It is very likely that the iPhone 7 will also have a "paint dropping door" similar to the iPhone 5 this time, but somehow Apple has warned you in advance. At the same time, now there is no deep space gray color matching, but black with frosted texture.
The high gloss appearance of the bright black iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus is made by the anodizing and polishing process that includes nine precision processes. Its surface hardness is the same as that of other Apple products with anodic oxidation treatment; However, high gloss surfaces may show slight wear with daily use. If you are worried about this, it is recommended that you choose a suitable protective case to protect your iPhone* Suggestions from Apple
Q: What has happened to capacity and price?
A: This time, Apple has canceled the 16GB entry-level beggar version of all iPhones (except iPhone SE), The initial capacity of the iPhone 7/7 Plus is 32GB, and then it jumps directly to 128GB and 256GB. This is very conscientious, because compared with the previous generation, each capacity version of the iPhone 7 (the price of the Bank of China) has only increased by 100 yuan, and each capacity version of the 7 Plus has only increased by 300 yuan, but the capacity has doubled.

However, it is worth mentioning that if you want to buy a bright black color scheme, you can only choose a 128GB or 256GB capacity version. This new color scheme does not have a 32GB option.
Q: Is this generation of iPhone worth buying?
A: This question needs to wait Ainongji Studio We can only know about the iPhone 7 after the detailed evaluation.
But for the moment, most of the things that iPhone 7/7 Plus can do are iPhone 6s It can also be done, but this generation of iPhone can do better, for example, it can take more beautiful photos, has a new portrait mode (it can only be used through later OTA), and now it can achieve IP67 waterproof and dust-proof. However, although it is equipped with a new touch home key, people who experience it on site do not think highly of it.
In general, the iPhone this time is not as amazing as it used to be (3GS to 4, 4S to 5, 5S to 6). The appearance design, body size, screen resolution and so on have not made a qualitative leap compared with the previous generation, but we will not make a conclusion so quickly. Everything will be clear when we get the iPhone 7/7 Plus.
