Pre-order Apple’s iPhone 7, 7 Plus and new Watch

And, yes, the big-screen 7 Plus now costs more than its predecessor; for example, $769, which is $20 more than the iPhone 6S Plus. I also wasn’t at Apple’s press conference on Wednesday, so I haven’t had any hands-on time with the phones.

On the other hand, there are customers such as Mr Danny Ho, 40, who are attracted to the new iPhone. The comparatively tiny display with its pathetic 720p resolution feels like a relic of the past at this point, especially since every Android phone I use is equipped with a big, lovely 2K display.

However, many were taken by surprise when it was announced that the latest iPhone would not ship with a 3.5 mm audio jack.

It may sound a little outrageous, but getting yourself an iPhone Lightning Dock from Apple can solve your problem entirely. How? You can also ask Siri to check the AirPods’ battery life.

The earphones are meant to give up to five hours of play time before recharging, which occurs in a purpose-designed white wireless docking case.

And Apple might’ve just killed it yesterday, with its bluetooth-powered AirPods.

Yes, according to Apple. No battery is built-in since you’ll be using the cord permanently, while a remote/mic combo comes built-in for answering phone calls and playing and pausing music. “The headphone adaptor helps bridge the gap, but suggests a lack of commitment to something touted as a courageous step”, Ernest Doku, telecoms expert at price comparison service uSwitch, was quoted as saying.

The iPhone 7 has only been available to pre-order for a matter of hours, but the new “Jet Black” colour option has already completely sold out on the Apple website – at least for units shipping by the September 16 release date.

Maybe? Stay tuned for the Business Insider review in the next few weeks.

The AirPods pack up to five hours of power, but the accompanying case will hold a 24-hour charge, so users can place them back inside to get more juice. Any wireless headphones that work with Bluetooth will also work with the new iPhones.

The number of people using an iPhone has doubled over the past two years, and when these new users will upgrade is still an open question, Mr. Sacconaghi said.

Why. why would Apple do this?
