iPhone 7 launch event: 256GB ROM, dual 12MP camera

At the iPhone 7 launch event in San Francisco, Apple iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus showed up with many different features compared to iPhone 6s and 6s Plus. About the design, 2016 iPhones come with an aluminum unibody with four colors: black, silver, gold, rose gold, and the additional jet black color. On the rear panel, the antenna bands are now put on the top and bottom edges. There is no physical home button anymore, as well as 3.5mm headphone jack. Instead of that, Apple uses a 3D touch home button, and Lightning port now also serves as the headphone jack as well.

In terms of iPhone 7 specs, it runs on iOS 10 and is powered by a quad-core A10 Fusion processor. With this chipset, iPhone 7 will perform 40% faster than A9 from IP6s. It packs 2GB of RAM paired with 32/128/256GB of non-expandable ROM. About cameras, the phone is equipped with a 7MP selfie snapper and a 12MP main camera. This primary cam comes with f/1.8, OIS, and quad-LED flash. Besides, there is a 4.7-inch Retina IPS display. iPhone 7 Plus specs are similar to iPhone 7, except for two features – screen and camera. IP7 Plus has a 5.5-inch Full HD Retina screen and a dual 12MP main cam with 2x optical zoom and 10x digital zoom.

One of the most impressive things about these iPhones is the long-awaited dust + water resistant features.
