![]() ![]() That significantly deadens the Taptic Engine vibration and suddenly it doesn’t really feel like the button is moving. Apple’s handiwork is slightly less effective, though, when I place either phone on a flat surface and press the Home button. Together, the vibration and sound would fool anyone, even though most recent iPhone Home buttons didn’t actually make an audible click. When I press the Home button while holding the iPhone 7 or 7 Plus in my hand, I feel the button “moving” and also hear a “click.” This sound effect, which resonates through to the back of the phone, is also a product of the Taptic Engine. The feature also vibrates in a way that fools you into thinking the screen is moving down, However, the effect on the Home button has clearly been refined. Then, as now, it was used to power 3D Touch, which lets you press down on the screen to get a third dimension of interactivity. Pressure sensors right below the surface tell the motor when I’m pressing and instantly trigger the motor.Īpple actually introduced the Taptic Engine last year with the Apple Watch, iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus. It’s a piece of Sapphire glass that sits on top of Apple’s "Taptic Engine" (essentially a haptic motor), which vibrates every time I press it. But this is a perfect illusion the iconic iPhone Home button is finally nothing of the sort. Yes, it’s inset, and when I push it, I feel it moving. The Touch ID or Home button on the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus looks exactly as it did on the 6S and 6S Plus, but it’s no longer a button. On the other hand, Samsung Galaxy Note7 phablet (which is on recall as I write this) weighs just 6 ounces or 169g - noticeably lighter than the iPhone 7 Plus. The Samsung Galaxy S7, which you might compare to the iPhone 7, weighs a bulkier 5.4 ounces (152g). The 0.29-inch-thick (7.3 mm) iPhone 7 Plus weighs 6.6 ounces or 188g (the iPhone 6s Plus weighed 6.8 ounces/192g). The 0.28-inch-thick (7.1mm) iPhone 7 weighs 4.9 ounces or 138 grams (the iPhone 6S weighed 5 ounces even, or 143g). The latter set of curves, a smart move to mitigate the visual effect of how much more space the new cameras take up on the back of these devices.Īs I noted above, the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus match the dimensions of Apple’s previous iPhones, but both have shed a few grams of weight in the process. There are other small changes to the body, like removing the channel surrounding the volume buttons and curving the chassis up toward the now much larger single-lens camera on the iPhone 7 and the dual-lens camera on the iPhone 7 Plus. Instead, the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus join a long line of industry-defining handsets and, at least in one regard, point the way to the future. They do not astonish nor do they frustrate. The pair of handsets I reviewed, the 4.7-inch Apple iPhone 7 and the 5.5-inch Apple iPhone 7 Plus, are beautiful, high-quality handsets that operate as well or better than any smartphones I’ve used before in a variety of situations. While there are a pair of notable, even radical, departures from previous iPhones and smartphones, in general, Apple’s iPhone 7 (both the "regular" and Plus models) inches us ever-closer to the completely sealed, moving-parts-free ideal of a smartphone slab.Īpple’s decision to polish, literally, the iPhone 6 and 6S look to create the familiar-yet-excellent Jet Black iPhone 7, makes clear Apple believes it’s on the right path and that, per usual, it’s not taking its cues from the competition. MacBook Air with Core i7 is not inferior in score, but the results of single core are nearly equivalent.Ĭompared to the 2015 model with Core i 5, the MacBook Pro has a single core score that results in the iPhone 7 series winning.Two years ago, Apple unveiled the iPhone 6, a signature design for mobile technology that it's been honing ever since. The scores of the successive MacBook Air are as follows and you can see from the MacBook Air with Intel Core i 5 that the iPhone 7 series is the high score. ![]() Mac Rumors who received this result also mentioned the score of the benchmark test of MacBook Air and MacBook Pro by Geekbench. It was the iPhone 7/7 Plus that got the highest score, it turned out that both single core and multicore are quicker than the most high-spec Galaxy S7 on the Android terminal at the present time. Daring Fireball has released comparative results by Geekbench's benchmark test of the latest Android terminal such as iPhone 7 series, Galaxy S 7.IPhone 7 Series is Faster Than Any MacBook Air Ever Made - Mac Rumors Already Comparison of benchmark tests of successive iPhone seriesAlthough it is out, the Geekbench benchmark test revealed that the iPhone 7 series has better performance than the latest Android smartphone and MacBook Air.ĭaring Fireball: Geekbench: Android Benchmarks vs. The iPhone 7 series is equipped with the latest SoC "A10 Fusion" and says "2 times faster than iPhone 6". 10:36:00 IPhone 7/7 Plus is faster than MacBook Air ![]()
