Is the iPhone 7 Plus Worth It? #Helpful Post

as the 10th edition of what is literally

the most popular piece of technology in

the world there's a lot of hype around

the new iPhone 7 is it worth it

hey guys is Austin and it's safe to say

there is a lot of hype riding on these

two phones

don't let the 7 name fool you these are

almost identical-looking to the 6 and 6s

at first glance you're still getting the

same sized 4.7 and 5.5 inch displays on

the 7 and 7 Plus which is an interesting

choice the easiest way to spot the

differences around back where the 7 has

a noticeably larger camera hump and the

plus has an even bigger one the largest

change though is what isn't on the phone

and something else that's I think super

divisive is the lack of the headphone

jack no way so oh yeah I don't know if

you noticed but there's actually no way

you're right yeah

Apple has a long history of killing

Poor's before people are ready however

they may have taken a step too far with

the headphone jack to make up for this

they include a set of lightning ear pods

along with an adapter to plug normal 3.5

millimeter headphone in the ear pods are

well their ear pods they're totally fine

but they aren't replacing your high-end

cans any time soon

to be fair the headphone adapter works

exactly as you'd expect plug it into the

phone and your headphones will sound

exactly like on previous iPhones however

its small and easy to lose you'll

probably end up needing another but at

least they're only $9 headphone makers

haven't been shy about making their own

lightning headphones though and some of

them are actually pretty good you're

definitely paying a premium but at least

you're getting quality your other

options are bluetooth headphones in

addition to the sod selection that have

been around for years like the Jaber

freedom Apple are about to have their

own option available air pods

there's a lot of good things with the

air pods and the you know the newbies oh

yes you tried the air pods right what do

you think about the air pods I think

they're crazy expensive they're way too

much money these are fully independent

ear pods that rely on Apple's new w1

ship to make syncing as seamless as

possible that same chip has made its way

into the new beats solo 3 headphones and

it really is dead simple to connect with

the ability to move between devices that

are connected via iCloud the solo 3

sound like beats for good and bad but at

least the tech inside works actually use

the iPhone 7 though and you'll find a

few problems with this wonderful new

future if you want to listen to music

over aux-in charge at the same time

you'll need the Apple lightning dock

which looks cool but runs a hefty 50

dollars it's not all bad news on the

audio side though

in addition to the bottom firing speaker

from the last iPhone you now get an

interesting stereo setup with the

earpiece also working as a speaker but

we've seen these other phones with

bezels the same size and these huge

speakers that sound phenomenal so yeah

good improvement would like that to

continue one change that feels

incredibly weird at first is the new

home button unlike before this actually

isn't even a real button at all turn the

phone off and you realize is just a

piece of glass that doesn't move with

the phone on though it uses a tactic

engine that vibrates to give the

illusion of an actual button press I

feel like it's like it's 90% there but

for a button I excited to work 100% of

the time right right right

and if you have anything on your finger

yeah there's no ways gonna work there is

one upside to the lack of a headphone

jack the iPhone 7 is now water-resistant

it's not fully waterproof ready to be

under a meter of water for 30 minutes

you should probably leave the iPhone

behind on your next scuba diving

excursion but for a quick dip in the

pool it should be fine or at least

that's what I would have said if I

getting that last shot didn't kind of

kill the phone so didn't realize until

this morning however the home button now

is being really inconsistent sometimes

it works but the taptic engine is way

off so I'm getting all kinds of weird

sort of feedback over the bigger issue

is with the camera so if you look around

back you'll see that especially the main

camera lens is seriously fogged up

there's definitely some water that's

gotten inside the foam that's that quite

as bad when you look at the telephoto

lens or if you try to take a picture

it's pretty blurry so you know the

second camera clears things up a little

bit however even with the front-facing

camera you can see that there's

definitely ooh there's definitely a lot

of condensation in there which is

disappointing

this phone is rated to be under a meter

of water for 30 minutes however after

being under about two inches of water

for 30 seconds it was enough to do some

serious damage to be fair this is

probably an isolated incident with my

phone as I've seen a lot of other water

tests where people have had the iPhone 7

underwater for hours and spent totally

fine or next time you decide to get your

iPhone 7 wet you may want to think twice

something else they can be a pain to

deal with is the new jet like finish it

first lanes it looks pretty killer with

a serious polish but it absolutely

attracts fingerprints and tiny scratches

even Apple admits that you should

probably use a case with it which isn't

exactly encouraging for the long-term

durability personally I prefer the matte

black finish on the 7 it still looks

nice but it handles minor wear and tear

a lot nicer both of the new iPhones are

also rocking some serious power

inside you'll find the new a 10 fusion

chip which uses a pair of high-powered

CPU cores along with two that are more

focused on battery efficiency I have no

complaints in terms of performance I saw

just be tested obviously

you can see how quickly it moves is it

actually best moving between apps you

know it's like the no-brainer the plus

does have a slight advantage when it

comes to memory with three gigs of RAM

compared to two on the normal seven but

it's hard to note as much difference in

real use thankfully Apple has also

bumped up the storage options

the base model now starts with 32 gigs

with options to go up to 128 and 256

gigabytes the bigger difference is in

battery life the seven plus still easily

last me through a full day and then some

but the seven has seen a big improvement

to nearly magic while it's not exclusive

to the new iPhone iOS 10 is a big

improvement with a pretty solid facelift

iOS is looking better than it has in

years the super flat design of iOS 7 has

been toned down a bit and the entire

interface feels like it's been coated in

an extra layer but I have noticed a few

crashes here and there but there's no

denying that these are some of the

fastest phones out there another area

where things have improved is in the

camera Department the iPhone 7 now has a

new brighter F 1.8 aperture lens which

brings in about 50% more light compared

to the success

it's a noticeable upgrade there's a

slightly shallower depth of field and

low-light and seen a big jump which is

helped by the addition of optical image

stabilization on the regular 7 in

addition to the 7 plus autofocus is also

incredibly quick it's right on par with

the galaxy s7 as the fastest focusing

phone out there right now pictures are

nice and sharp with very pleasant color

Apple has always hit a nice middle

ground between punchy and over-the-top

and this is no exception

when the note 7 and well s7 edge camera

first came out I was comfortable saying

that that was the best actually on any

smart phone now that the seven cameras

come out it's a close one into AI so

that's really impressive for both of

them the iPhone 7 is rocking a new 7

megapixel front-facing camera and it's

really not bad the improvements in color

have also come across to the selfie

camera and while it's still not as wide

as the terrific front-facing cameras on

the s7 and note 7 it's a nice

improvement where you'll notice a bigger

difference is with the new telephoto

camera that's been added to the 7 plus

it's a 2 time zoom compared to the main

camera which can give you some very

different perspectives when shooting

without relying on digital zoom Apple

has done a good job of making switching

between the two cameras seamless however

the telephoto camera

just can't match the quality of the main

shooter it has a smaller aperture and

it's a physically smaller sensor which

hurts especially in low-light on the

other hand video on both the seven and

seven plus or absolutely top-notch the

stabilization is the best in the

business right now even when shooting in

4k and the slow motion options deliver

some really cool results on one hand the

iPhone 7 is a solid improvement you're

getting blistering performance water

resistance improved cameras and better

battery life on the other though you

have a nearly identical design in the

total lack of a headphone jack borders

on a deal-breaker for some as always

they're expensive and not for everyone

but if you're looking for some of the

best phones out right now the iPhone 7

and 7 plus are worth it so what do you

guys think about the iPhone 7 let me

know in the comments below and

definitely be sure to subscribe to the

channel to catch more is it worth it

episodes like this anyway guys thank you

you in the next one

iPhone 12 is 12 times more revolutionary

than the iPhone 9 we'll see that so I

thought but then that would make me it

wait what 9 yeah the actual number of

sub pixels is not a crazy difference

between that and 1080p what was that I

think there's a cat
