iPhone 7 Hands on - 10 Things Before Buying! #Helpful Post

hey guys johnathan here and it is

official this is the iPhone 7 so I just

got back from the chaos that was the

Apple event got a chance to see Timmy

take the stage and surprisingly

announced that Apple partnered with

Nintendo to bring Mario to the iPhone

which was awesome but more importantly

there were two brand new iPhones

announced the iPhone 7 and 7 plus there

was a ton of information and a lot to

digest so I'm gonna break it down into

ten things to know before buying now for

those coming from the nation welcome to

the channel I've got a chance to read a

few of the comments which have been

incredible so thank you for the love if

you have no idea what's going on myself

and philip defranco who is one of my

favorite youtubers have joined forces to

give away two brand spankin new iPhone

7s so for a chance to win one of those

iPhone 7s just make sure you're

subscribed here on my channel maybe drop

a like if you're feeling extra awesome

and for a chance at that second iPhone 7

head over to Phil's channel subscribe if

you haven't yet and check out his video

which I will link down below we're gonna

announce the winners that day the iPhone

7 comes out so hit that subscribe button

and maybe throw notifications so you

don't miss out so jump it in the first

thing that you need to know is that it's

official the headphone jack is dead now

we had a pretty good idea that this was

coming with the leaks and the rumors but

there was still that doubt in that

question of would Apple actually remove

the headphone jack and yep they did so

with that said the aplans 7 and 7 plus

will ship bundle with lightening

headphones there is a lightening to

eighth inch adapter it's gonna allow you

to use standard wired headphones and

shockingly apples including this with a

phone and not going to charge you 78

bucks as an accessory now this also led

to the introduction of Apple's new air

pods which essentially are wireless ear

pods I'm not really quite sold on the

looks yet and beyond that I can already

see people losing these things on the

positive side the removal of the

headphone jack has led to stereo

speakers in the iPhone 7 & 7 plus

there's one at the top and one at the

bottom what's cool though is that it's

smart enough to know whether you're

holding the phone at landscape or

portrait and what that's going to do is

output that stereo sound in the correct

orientation now the next thing that you

need to know is that there are two

brand-new colors the first of which is

jet black which looks really nice got

the super sleek glossy finish but

spoiler alert this thing is a

fingerprint magnet the second new color

is simply dubbed black but oh my god

this

looks incredible not going to lie

getting a chance to see this up close in

person I felt like Jim Carrey it is a

really really pretty phone and probably

the one I will be picking up

unfortunately what this does mean is the

death of Space Gray which does make me a

little sad inside because it is my

current favorite color luckily I think

the black iPhone 7 will help me get over

that but total now there are five color

options for the iPhone 7 and 7 plus

jet-black black silver gold and rose

gold so next up for the third thing that

you need to know I'm going to hand it

off to the rock the iPhone 7 is

water-resistant now yes I know this is a

new it's not revolutionary and there are

other phones that are capable of this

but if you're an iPhone user this is

fantastic news next up the fourth thing

that you need to know that there is a

brand new home button so this is very

similar to the MacBook trackpads we're

not actually physically clicking a

button and what's actually happening is

underneath through a taptic engine it's

actually simulating a click so the best

way I could describe is over videos if

the iPhone 7 were turned off and you

press the button nothing is going to

happen now getting a chance to check

this out in person it definitely was a

little weird at first but the more and

more I used the more comfortable I felt

and as far as how it works in the

MacBook I am a huge fan of that so I

think it's a very positive thing for the

iPhone 7 so following that the fifth

thing that you need to know is that the

iPhone 7 or rather what's inside the

iPhone 7 which is the a10 fusion chip is

fast AF now this is a quad-core chip but

the way Apple explained it it's more so

a pair of dual-core processors one

high-performance pair and then one low

performance pair that switch off back

and forth depending on how you're using

your phone regardless though it is 120

times faster than the original iPhone

it's rocking a 6 core GPU and getting a

chance to see gaming and graphics up

close and personal it looks really good

what's also cool is obviously it is

going to be faster than the previous a 9

processor but what's awesome is that

it's doing this at two-thirds less power

so next up at number six is that the

camera should be insanely good with the

iPhone 7 you're getting 12 megapixels on

the back and 7 on the front what's

awesome though as the iPhone 7 now

includes optical image stabilization

which was something missing on the

iPhone 6s and 6

to briefly check that out it wasn't the

craziest environment but it did seem to

work really well on top of that you get

an f-18 aperture quad LED flash and

while it really wasn't the best

environment to actually take pictures

getting a chance to look at some of the

pictures that were supposedly taking on

the iPhone 7 those looked really good

now with the iPhone 7 plus you're

getting everything Nash 1:7 has plus the

addition of a second lens so how it

works is there's one wide-angle lens and

one telephoto lens where you can switch

back and forth on top of that what this

does gives you instant two times optical

zoom or up to 10 times digital zoom

beyond that and again this isn't a new

feature and we've seen on other phones

but a huge thing with the appling 7 plus

is the depth of field effect what

essentially allows you to do is get that

really nice blurred out background but

still have your subject in focus and

again much like the iPhone 7 seeing some

of these demo pictures on the iPhone 7

in person those looked really really

good obviously this is something I'll

definitely have to test out further when

I get one in myself but for now it

definitely looks promising now on top of

just stills I also got a chance to check

out some of the new live photos which

look a ton better I believe there was

some sort of collaboration with

Instagram to bring boomerang

functionality to the live photos which

makes them flow a ton better I also got

a chance to check out some video that

again was supposedly recorded with the

iPhone 7 and that looked incredible so

needless to say I am super stoked for

the camera the next up at number 7 is

actually something that Apple did not

include and that is wireless charging

all the rumors about the headphone jack

the water resistance the colors those

were all spot-on but the speculation

about the iPhone 7 charging wirelessly

didn't happen the next up at number 8 is

the fact that the screen is better but

it's the same resolution both the iPhone

7 and 7 plus are 25% brighter and offer

a much wider color gamut and don't get

me wrong these look really good in

person but the resolution has remained

exactly the same - one seven is rocking

a 4.7 is 1334 by 750 display while the

iPhone 7 plus keeps the same 5.5 is 1920

by 1080p display there really wasn't any

expectations for a higher resolution

display I kind of hoped Apple would

surprise us but as of now reckon see

anything higher resolution till the next

iPhone in 2017 following that number 9

is the iPhone 7 and 7 plus will have

better battery life now this is actually

fantastic news because any amount of

additional battery is a good thing the

iPhone 7 will supposedly get you 2 hours

more than an iPhone 6s whereas the

iPhone 7 will get you one hour more than

a 6s plus in a world where phones are

getting thinner and in turn that

sacrifice battery life it is nice to see

the iPhone 7 not go backwards so as far

as that goes that is definitely a win

now lastly at number 10 and we can all

celebrate with this one is the fact that

16 gigabyte iPhones are finally dead so

with the iPhone 7 and 7 plus you're

looking at 32 gigabytes as a base model

and then from there jumps all the way up

to 128 or 256 gigs now unfortunately if

you want that jet black glossy

fingerprint magnet you're going to need

to spend more money to get it because it

is not available on a 32 gigabyte model

now pre-orders start September 9th at

12:01 a.m. Pacific so if you're east

coast or somewhere else you're gonna

have to stay up late and as far as when

they hit the stores that is September

16th which is right around the corner

aside from that thank you guys very much
