what's up guys David here and Apple just took the wraps off of the new iPhone 7 and 7 plus and man I've got to tell you it's a pretty impressive update to what was already a great phone there's now a bunch of new features that I've been wanting to see on an iPhone for quite some time which has got me more excited about this year's iPhone than I was about the last so without any further ado let's jump right in and take a look at the top 10 best new features on Apple's latest flagship top new feature number one refreshed design I know I know we're supposed to be talking about new features here and the first thing I hit you with is design which at first glance the iPhone 7s design looks a heck of a lot like the iPhone 6 and successes but there are a few reasons why I've included design in this list for one there are two new color options in addition to the silver gold and pink the first new color is called jet black which adds a glossy finish to the iPhone 7 that makes it look like the aluminum body blends almost seamlessly over to the front glass the second option is called just black and it has a matte black finish with a smoked out Apple logo now if you're looking for an iPhone 7 that looks obviously different from these 6 and 6s you're going to want to go with one of the two new black options but be warned the fancy new jet black color option will cost you more as it will only be available on the higher storage models jet black will also be more susceptible to micro abrasions so much so that Apple actually recommends you to get a case add to that the fact that the high-gloss finish will be a fingerprint magnet and all the sudden the regular matte black color option looks like the obvious choice at least for me let me know what you guys are leaning towards down below in the comments good news for all the new color options is the antenna lines are now more subtle with them only appearing along the top and bottom edges instead of across the back and on the new black color options the antenna lines are blacked out so they're even less noticeable and then finally the aluminium on the back now curved over the camera hump instead of it just being flat with a protruding lens which is not the biggest change in the world but it is a nice little touch to new home but the physical home button that has been on the i phone since day one is no more with Apple redesigning the new home button on the iPhone 7 to be a new solid-state button that technically works the same as it did on the iPhone 6s with the only difference being it doesn't basically click in instead when you press down on it you get tablet feedback with the help of the iPhone sevens new taptic engine which is now more responsive with a wider range of frequencies the buttons click sensitivity can actually be adjusted in the settings which is the first of what Apple says are many more customizations to come now I know a Miss the physical button and it will take some time to get used to this solace day button that only tricks you into thinking it's clicking in when you press it but ultimately I think the new button was the right move for Apple to make as in theory it should be more durable since there are no moving parts those of you who've had an iPhone button that's gotten stuck are broken know why this matters and the new button probably helped make the next feature possible 3 water and dust resistance the iPhone 7 and 7 plus are now ip67 water and dust resistance with apples sealing the phone internally and even using adhesives to help the phone survive the accidental spill now some of you may be wondering what the differences between the iPhone 7s ip67 rating and the galaxy s7 ip68 rating well while IP ratings can vary from device to device it looks like the major differences the iPhone 7 can survive being an up to one meter of water for 30 minutes while the galaxy s7 can survive in up to 1.5 meters for the same amount of time so yeah the galaxy s7 is technically more water-resistant but honestly when it comes to accidentally dropping it in the toilet or even taking it with you in the shower you should probably be fine either way it is worth noting that liquid damage won't be covered by Apple's warranty so don't go out swimming with it if you don't have to for improved display know the iPhone 7 and 7 plus don't have higher resolutions you still have the same 1334 by 750 resolution on the iPhone 7 and is same 1920 by 1080 resolution on the iPhone 7 plus but that doesn't necessarily mean that the display themselves haven't been improved in fact the iPhone 7s display is now 25% brighter with a typical maximum brightness of 625 minutes compared to 500 nits on the iPhone 6s this should make it a lot easier to see when outdoors and in direct sunlight the new display also has a wider color gamut which Apple says is able to deliver cinema standard colors with the best color management in the industry those are apples words not mine and if I had a bet I'd say that Samsung displays still probably have the edge but nonetheless the colors on the iPhone 7 should pop a bit more which is always nice top new feature number 5 all new cameras probably the biggest new feature on the iPhone 7 is the camera on both the front and on the back the rear camera is an all new 12 megapixel sensor which Apple says is 60% faster and 30% more energy efficient than the one on iphone success it is now capable of taking wider color gamut photos which work nicely with the improved display and as a new 6 element lens with an f-stop of 1.8 compared to 2.2 on the success which results in 50% more light getting in than before the iPhone 7 also gets optical image stabilization which previously was only available on the larger plus models allowing it to take exposures of up to three times longer than the iPhone 6s which combined with the higher f-stop should make the photos you take in low-light look a heck of a lot better but sometimes even these best low-light cameras need a little help from the flash and on the iPhone 7 the shoot on flash is better than ever with four different LEDs instead of just two like on the iPhone success that combine to be 50% brighter there is also a split sensor that detects the flicker that artificial light sometimes produces and has the camera automatically compensate for it now those are a lot of improvements right there but these seven plus this camera takes things to the next level instead of 112 megapixel camera on the back there are now two 12 megapixel cameras one of them is used for your regular wide photos with an F 1.8 28mm lenz while the other is a telephoto F 2.8 fifty six millimeter lens which effectively allows you to do a 2 X optical zoom that can be increased digitally up to 10x switching between D 1x and 2x camera is as simple as pressing the button right above the shutter letting you zoom in to two X without losing any image quality or adding the noise that typically comes with digital zoom this dual lens setup also comes with the ability to do depth of field effects so you can get a nice blurry background while taking a picture of someone though this feature won't be available at launch and will come out sometime later this year overall the iPhone 7 plus S camera is a huge improvement and takes the smartphone camera one step closer to acting like a DSLR camera with things like optical zoom and shallow depth of field will it replace your DSLR no but it is one step closer to doing so which is amazing on a smartphone now the rear cameras aren't the only cameras to be improved because we live in a world where the front-facing camera is probably used more so than the rear camera Apple has improved it as well with the front camera being bumped up to 7 megapixels compared to just five on the iPhone 6s this should translate into clearer crisper selfies which may or may not be a good thing 6 lte-advanced the iPhone continues this trend of being one of the most global ready smartphones out there with the iPhone 7 supporting up to 25 LTE bands it also supports LTE advanced which can handle data speeds of up to 450 megabytes per seconds which is 50% faster than what was available on the success and three times faster than on the iPhone 6 7 more storage so one of my favorite new features is the fact that Apple has finally decided to ditch the 16 gigabyte base model on the new iPhones which in this day and age of high resolution photos and videos just doesn't cut it anymore the iPhone 7 now starts at 32 gigabytes at these six hundred and $49 price points with the $750 model skipping 64 gigabytes and jumping all the way up to 128 and then for you heavy storage users there is now a whopping 256 gigabyte model available which will set you back 850 dollars eight better performance okay so the iPhone success is the fastest phone we've ever tested in our Bumbo style speed tests but it's still being undefeated after beating the new note 7 despite being a year old and from the looks of it the iPhone 7 is going to be even faster the new quad-core 810 fusion chip finally brings a quad-core processor to the iPhone with to the cores being high performance cores that results in a CPU that is 40% faster than the one on the iPhone success and a six core GPU that is 50% more powerful than what the a9 was packing all this extra horsepower can lead to apps and games that were simply not possible before specifically with the games with some new titles launching alongside the iPhone 7 that supposedly bring near console quality graphics to your pocket now I'm super excited about the a10 fusion and it's about time that the iPhone jumped on to the quad-core bandwagon so I can't wait to see what happens any Bumbo style speed test thumbs up you're with me nine better battery life with a faster chip the new taptic engine and the improved display you may be wondering what that means for battery life well Apple says that the iPhone 7 is going to on average last you two hours longer than the iPhone success the iPhone 7 plus on the other hand is supposedly going to last you one hour longer than the iPhone 6s plus which was already a beast to begin with with battery this extra battery life is thanks partly to the a10 fusion chip which again is a quad core with two high-performance cores that we just talked about and two low performance cores that will only be used for tasks that don't require a bunch of processing power like checking your emails for example in the background now this isn't anything new we've seen quad-core chips work like this on Android for quite some time but it's nice to see that Apple is finally implementing it into the iPhone 10 stereo speakers the iPhone successor speaker is actually not that bad compared to phones like the galaxy s7 but thankfully Apple didn't just settle for the status quo the iPhone 7 now has dual stereo speakers with one of the speaker's being at the bottom right where it was on the iPhone success and the other new speaker being at the top by the earpiece this is a similar setup to what we saw on the HTC 10 so while I'm not sure how it'll perform just yet Apple does says that is two times louder and offers increased dynamic range so while I want to take the word for it I'm not necessarily gonna believe it just yet until we test it but stay tuned alright so there you have it those are the top ten best new features on the iPhone 7 and 7 plus the new phones will become available starting September 16th with the iPhone 7 coming in at the same price point as the iPhone success at six hundred and fifty bucks while the iPhone 7 plus actually gets $20 more expensive starting at seven hundred and seventy bucks anyways that is it for me in this video we have a bunch of iPhone 7 coverage coming up soon so make sure you subscribe if you haven't already thank you guys for watching it as always I'll see you in the very next
