Rumors that the iPhone 7 will lose the 16-gigabyte version have been confirmed: Apple said that versions from 32 to 256 gigabytes of permanent memory are available to users.

In the US, the smartphone will be available for sale starting September 16, although pre-orders for the new product will officially open on September 9.

The smartphone will become available for Russian users a little later - the announced release date of the iPhone 7 in Russia is set for September 23, 2016. Russian Apple online store has already announced the price for iPhone 7 in the Russian Federation at 56,990 rubles, and the older model will cost 67,990 rubles.

Finally presented new apple iPhone 7, phone gets rid of headphone jack, has dual cameras, waterproof housing, and updated design.

After all, the iPhone 7 is here. Apple continued its traditional naming structure with the introduction of the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. We've heard a lot about the upcoming release of iOS 10. operating system, which has been in beta for over two months, and that the new iPhone 7 and 7 Plus will ship with this new OS, but we're excited to learn more about the phones themselves.

Here's everything you need to know about the new iPhones, and they have a lot of interesting changes.

Waterproof design and durability of Apple iPhone 7

The iPhone 7 and 7 Plus aren't part of Apple's main update cycle—you'll have to wait a little longer to buy these models—but they have some amazing new capabilities that are worth the wait.

Both the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus are (finally!) water- and dust-resistant (IP67 standard), meaning you're now free to take your device into the shower without worry. The IP67 standard means that any of the new Apple smartphones can be submerged under water for about 30 minutes, to a depth of 1 meter.

The two new devices share the same aluminum body and look slightly different than the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus, although they have the same screen sizes: a 4.7-inch display on the iPhone 7 and a 5.5-inch screen on the iPhone 7 Plus. The Plus model has a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, while its younger brother has a resolution of 1334 x 750 pixels. Both screens are 25 percent brighter than the 6S and display a wider color gamut.

Mirror surface and glossy finish

"The mirror-like, jet-black finish of iPhone 7 is achieved through a precision nine-step anodizing process and a special polishing process," according to the official website. “Its surface is as durable as other anodized products Apple. However, the beautiful shine of the case may show subtle micro-abrasions over time. If you are concerned about this, we recommend using one of the many available options to protect your iPhone."

New phones no longer have antenna strips on the top and bottom. Instead, they became barely noticeable on the bottom and top edges.

Apple is also bringing more color options for the iPhone 7, in addition to silver, gold, and rose gold, and you'll be able to choose between glossy jet black and matte black.

The camera on the back still protrudes slightly, but the most noticeable difference is on the iPhone 7 Plus. It features dual cameras on the back, similar to the LG G5. This is the first iPhone ever to have this feature.

And finally home button"Home" now has new version pressure sensitive ID sensor. It no longer clicks, but simulates a click using vibration, similar to tapping on the Force trackpad on a MacBook. The button also offers tactile feedback, it can be programmed using apps third party developers to offer "new feelings and sensations".

Apple iPhone 7 doesn't have a headphone jack

Both new iPhones, like their predecessors, use stereo speakers at the top and bottom of the device, but the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus no longer have a 3.5mm headphone jack. This means you'll have to rely on a Lightning converter for your current headphones, or upgrade to Bluetooth headphones.

To make up for the missing headphone jack, Apple offers EarPods in the box and an adapter for your 3.5mm plug. The big disadvantage is that you won't be able to charge your phone and listen to music at the same time.

The lack of a headphone jack prompted Apple to improve the wireless audio experience with the W1 wireless chip. It is implemented in another new Apple product - AirPods, completely wireless headphones from 5 o'clock battery life. They are not included in the package.

New iPhone 7 processor

In addition to the new glossy finish and waterproof protection, there are a number of other significant changes under the skin of the new iPhone 7.

IPhone 7 and 7 Plus use the most powerful processor The most Apple ever installed is the A10 Fusion. This is 64 bit quad-core processor, which is 40 percent faster than the A9 in the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus. The company says that new processor 120 times faster than the original iPhone.

The first two cores are designed for high-performance activities, and the remaining two of them with high coefficient useful action. Apple developed a performance controller to determine which actions to use, or which set of cores to use. For example, checking your email The phone is likely to be powered by high efficiency cores, which is better for longer battery life.

The processor also improves graphics on the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus, up to 50 percent faster than the A9. Apple iPhone 7 comes with 2GB of RAM, while the 7 Plus offers 3GB.

The battery is improved compared to previous devices. In Cupertino they say that new iPhone The 7 will last 2 hours more than the 6S, and the iPhone 7 Plus will add an extra hour compared to the 6S Plus.

Dual camera

The iPhone 7 has an impressive camera, as stated by the company. But you'll have to shell out a little more money for the 5.5-inch version, which is even better. Apple iPhone 7 Plus is first iPhone with dual camera system.

But let's start with standard version iPhone 7, its rear 12 megapixel camera is equipped optical stabilization images, a 28mm wide-angle lens with F/1.8 aperture and a high-speed sensor that is 60 percent faster than before. It's also 30 percent more energy efficient.

Apple's new image signal processor in iPhone 7 offers twice the throughput than the previous one, even the flash has received an update - it now has four LEDs that offer 50 percent more light. The new flicker sensor also adds artificial light, for more vivid images in low light scenes.

The camera is capable of detecting faces and bodies and also offers wide color capture. Apple says 100 billion operations happen every time you take a photo, all in the space of 25 milliseconds. Of course this is a marketing ploy, but you have to admit, it’s impressive that the phone is able to do this in a split second.

Professional photographers will be happy to know that iPhone 7 finally supports RAW format images, allowing you to have more control when editing photos.

On the front of both new phones, there is a selfie camera that has improved to 7 megapixels and can take wide color photos with automatic image stabilization.

iPhone 7 Plus has the best rear camera However, it uses the same camera as the iPhone 7, but there's another 12-megapixel camera alongside it - a 56mm telephoto lens with an F/2.8 aperture. The special feature here is the built-in scaling functions.

When you take a photo, the 1x icon will appear on the screen. You can click and drag this slider from 1x to 10x - which will increase the spectacularly detailed features of the image, for best photo. The camera uses 2x optical zoom, but it switches to digital zoom when you zoom closer to 10x.

In addition, there is a new bokeh effect over which for a long time engineers worked Apple cameras. It adds blur to the background of the image to offer a depth effect, this is on par with digital SLR cameras. You can disable this function if you want, but if you turn it on, you can see everything before you take a photo, through preview. The feature will arrive later this year with a software update.

Apple iPhone 7 release and prices

The iPhone 7 and 7 Plus will be available for pre-order starting September 9, and Apple says the devices will officially go on sale on September 16, three days after the reveal of the new iOS 10 operating system on September 13.

Prices for the Apple iPhone 7 start at $649 (41,800 rubles) for the 32 GB storage option. You will also be able to choose from 32GB, 128GB and 256GB. The jet black color only comes in 128GB and 256GB variants.

For more details, see The company whose founder was Steve Jobs

, like the brainchild of Leonardo da Vinci, continues to increase the annual turnover of its shares and, of course, equipment. The main flagship of the product list is the beloved smartphone, which, even with some meager innovation over the last five years, still remains the most popular gadget

in the world. The release date has been set, sales of the smartphone have started Apple Iphone

7/iPhone 7 in Russia will take place on September 7, 2016.

Already now, fans of the apple giant are asking many questions: when will the new model be released, what will the price be in Russia, how much will it cost, is it possible to see a photo? This is exactly what we will talk about today. In September 2016, presumably in the city of Cupertino, at the annual, the iPhone 7 will be announced and launched in the US, and a year later an updated model with the “S” prefix.

Our editors constantly monitor the world of digital news, we have prepared especially for you last news, an overview of the characteristics and the most up-to-date information on what the most anticipated new product of 2016 will look like.

Tim Cook and his team are still reluctant to share information on this device, but nevertheless, the presence of such “innovations” is already known:

  • New color, which should be adapted to the elite version Apple Watch, i.e. gold edging and inserts on the back cover.
  • A new camera lens with sapphire coating, which will ensure the survivability of the camera and minimal impact on the quality of pictures, everything is like “in real life”.
  • An improved microphone, given some problems in the original predecessor iPhone 6s, we decided to work on this component here too.
  • Support for 4 GB of RAM, an updated processor and gesture control remain only the wishes of top designers and managers around the world.
  • There will be a new A10 processor with support for next-generation 4GB RAM.
  • The performance of the new smartphone will be almost 1.5 times higher compared to the iPhone 6 and 1.2 times higher than the iPhone 6S.
  • Most likely, the regular 16GB model will be removed from the line; you must agree, such a volume is already really small; the new formats will be 64/128/256 GB.
  • There is also information from insiders who are cooing in Cupertino about Apple's return into a 4-inch niche, i.e. iPhone 7 will be presented in 3 variations: ~4 inches, 4.7 and 5.5 inches.

Of course, the likelihood of such a development of events does not please Apple fans, because... in this case, the company becomes similar to its competitors, who try to have their share in all niches, but for Apple this new market sales and the opportunity to only increase the already huge profits in the field of mobile gadgets.

Unfortunately, all this delight has nothing to do with external changes and the introduction of new materials for iPhone protection 7.

Most likely, the external bezels will be removed and the smartphone will become more similar to the products that are produced Chinese competitor V face of Xiaomi and Meizu, though don’t forget about aluminum inserts and special coating protective glass, which will once again be redesigned in the direction of shock resistance and protection from dust and moisture (but not according to IP standards).

It's already clear that the Apple Watch hasn't been able to inspire in the same way that the first iPhone did, but there's a chance it won't become ordinary if the new iPhone 7 gets something new.

And what he can get can be seen in the recently purchased Apple patents - a curved screen, a retinal scanner, new technologies in the camera (which should be 12 MP rear and 8 MP front) and much more. This will increase confidence and Apple fans and their shareholders.

And finally, not good news, due to exchange rates, in Russia you will have to pay about 75-80 thousand rubles for the youngest model Iphone 7 64Gb.

By the way, the company’s main competitor is also preparing to release his brainchild - Galaxy S7.

Concept art and photos


Hi all! New model The iPhone comes out every year and Apple strictly adheres to this rule. However, “once a year” is too vague a wording, don’t you think? Therefore, I propose to find out today the exact date exit of absolutely everyone existing models iPhone. To collect, so to speak, all these numbers in one place.

For what? Firstly, it is always interesting to track how much time passes from the moment of presentation to the start of sales in Russia and the world. Secondly, such a cheat sheet can be useful to many (for me, as the author of a blog about Apple, certainly :)). Thirdly, why not? The content, in my opinion, is useful - let it be. Go!

For a clearer understanding, all information is presented in the table. A little explanation:

  • Start date of sales in the world - by “world” we mean the countries of the so-called “first wave” (USA, European countries etc.)
  • The start date of sales in Russia is the beginning of sales of certified (PCT) iPhones.
  • The iPhone 2G was not sold “legally” in Russia, but was the first official iPhone in the Russian Federation there is a 3G model (a little more about this).

As we can see, the increase in Apple’s loyalty to our country is very clearly visible. The timing of the appearance of gadgets in Russia, compared to the global start of sales, decreased every year. And by the time the “six” came out, they reached their apogee. The difference was only a week!

For comparison - official iPhone 3GS appeared in Russia after almost 9 months! At this time the whole world was already waiting for the “four” :)

And my opinion is that everything was heading towards Russia being included this year in the list of those countries where Apple devices appear first. However, this did not happen and we all know why:

  • Dollar instability.
  • Great prices.
  • Low purchasing activity.

Well, let's wait and see and perhaps, specifically for the iPhone 7 model, a row with two identical numbers in the last two columns will be added to the table at the top :)

Updated! Well, with regards to the iPhone 7, miracles certainly didn’t happen, but Russia still got into the “second wave” of sales. In the Russian Federation, a brand new smartphone from Apple will appear only a week later than in the “first wave” countries. And this is very good! After all, the point is that starting with the iPhone 7S, our country should be among those who will receive it first.

Updated 2! Preliminary data (which are known immediately after the presentation) on iPhone release 8 and iPhone X have been added to the table. On this moment Opinions differ only about the G8 - will Russia be among the countries of the “first wave”? Or will iPhone 8 sales in the Russian Federation start a week later than throughout the world? Let's wait for more accurate information... We have waited. Still a week late. But Russia was in the “first wave” iPhone sales X is very cool!
