Review of iPhone 7! What are the performance comparisons, advantages and disadvantages of cameras and CPUs?

IPhone 7 Review! I tried using impressions etc!

Finally, the release of iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus has started.

I also got a 4.7 inch iPhone 7 so I would like to write a review of the actual machine. The iPhone 7 you got this time is a silver 128GB model. The iPhone 7 has a color lineup of five colors, but since it is the most standard color, it may be said that the model is relatively easy to obtain, even on the release date.

So, I would like to write the appearance review and the impressions I tried using below.When opening the lid, the main body did not come out suddenly, but the instructions were at the top.

The iPhone 7 body comes out under the instructions.

Until now I had anxiety about dropping it because the main body was placed immediately after opening the box, but there is no need to feel such unnecessary anxiety.

Although 3.5 mm headphone jack was abolished from iPhone 7, instead of that, Hendfon “EarPods” equipped with lightning connector, conversion adapter is attached.

Below, I am reviewing the body design of iPhone 7.

 

Compare iPhone 7 design to iPhone 6s

I would like to compare the actual models of iPhone 7 with the previous model iPhone 6s and how the design changed.

The basic design of the iPhone 7 is the same as the iPhone 6s, but as the part of the white line was eliminated with iPhone 7, the back part became a very stylish design.

It is not perfect because the completely white line has not disappeared yet, but I’d like to expect that it will go away. And it seems that the iPhone’s logo typeface has been changed. I think that this typeface is a typeface originally used for the iPhone, so the expression that it was restored may be correct.

As the white line disappeared, the lens of the camera got even bigger. The ring which was around the lens was abolished and it was changed to the design to protect the lens by bending the aluminum of the main body. Is not it quite cool?

In addition, although the number of pixels is the same as 12 million pixels, the new image sensor has been adopted, and a bright lens of f1.8 is newly adopted, and it also supports optical shake correction function.

Home button has been changed from physical formula to touch sensor type. This may be said to be the biggest change in history of the iPhone.

IPhone 7 Home button

It is a mysterious button that you can get a sense of touch that you pressed the home button as if you were vibrating by pressing with a finger strongly with a pressure-sensitive home button. Well, although there is some discomfort, I think that it plays a role as a home button sufficiently.

The 3.5 mm HENDOFON JACK has been discontinued and is like a speaker grill. I thought that the speakers are installed here, but it seems that the sounds are not ringing from here. It may be that a microphone is loaded.

Power button and SIM card slot are mounted on the right side part.

Volume button and mute switch are mounted on the left side part. The recess between the button and the button is no longer iPhone 7. It might be made refreshing to respond to waterproofing.

Because iPhone 7 was compatible with waterproof and dustproof, I was trying hard not to get wet by rain so far, but it seems to be unnecessary to use so much mind. There are many users who have been waiting for waterproofing, and that the iPhone has responded to waterproofing is likely to make it more likely that smartphones will become standard ones for waterproofing functions.

Performance of iPhone 7 CPU and GPU

IPhone 7 is adopted by quad-core “A10 Fusion” processor. It seems that the core is switched in accordance with the situation, as the four cores are not fully operated but two high-performance cores and two high-efficiency cores are made a total of four.

I tried measuring CPU performance with iPhone 7 and iPhone 6s at Geekbench 4, but is the performance improved by about 40% compared with iPhone 6s?

IPhone 7 CPU performance

The single-core 3441, dual-core 5586 scores are higher performance than the MacBook’s Intel Core M processor, and it can be understood that the mobile processor also has the performance equal to or higher than that of the processor used in the desktop Maybe it is.

We also measured the performance of GPU using 3D MARK.

IPhone 7 GPU

The iPhone 7 has beat out a rather high score of 37377, while the iPhone 6s has a score of 27679. This figure has a higher score than the iPad Pro of the A9X processor, and you can see that the performance is considerably increased although it is such a small device.

Camera performance

I compared the performance of the camera with iPhone 7 and iPhone 6s. It is the image sensor of the same 12 million pixels, but the brightness of the lens brightened from f2.2 to f1.8, and the photograph shooting in the dark is strengthened by mounting the optical image stabilizer function It seems.

So, I tried shooting R2 – D2 in a somewhat dark place.

The left is iPhone 6s and the right is iPhone 7. It seems that the right one is reflected brightly a bit. Furthermore, it seems that the effect of the anti-shake function has reduced hand shake.

Comparison of iPhone 7 camera performance

Let’s enlarge the dark area.

It is not so different because the number of pixels is the same, but it seems that iPhone 7 has less noise in the shadow part. Well, really it got a little better … … maybe.

Benefits of switching to iPhone 7

Is there a merit that you can transfer to iPhone 7 using iPhone 6s?

I guess there are many people who think so. I tried to summarize the merit of transfer which I felt when I actually took iPhone 7.

  • The design got cool
  • Compatible with waterproof and dustproof
  • FeliCa will be available
  • Enjoy music with stereo sound
  • Shooting in dark places is beautiful

Even if it says anything, it can be said that the main body design got cooler than anything else.

In addition, it is possible to operate even if it gets wet somewhat on rainy days because it corresponds to waterproof and dustproof. This is quite a big merit, and the way you take pictures may change as well. As expected it is impossible to enter the pool and shoot, but it may be possible to shoot while not getting wet with water as much as possible.

Supporting FeliCa function is also great advantage.

Suica correspondence seems to be after October and it can not be used yet yet, but if there is an iPhone 7, the era when it is possible to make a payment without having an IC card may be coming soon.

IPhone 7 supports stereo sound. I was surprised that you are using stereo playback with an earpiece speaker, but it is certain that you can enjoy music that is more realistic than ever. Although the iPad has advanced into stereo speakers, the flow has been handed down to the iPhone as well.

In addition, the performance of the camera has improved, making nighttime shooting easier. Since the LED flash has also evolved from two to four, the color of the skin can also be photographed more naturally, which may be recommended for nocturnal people ….

Disadvantage to switch to iPhone 7

Do not forget that there is a disadvantage of switching to iPhone 7.

  • Design does not matter if a case is attached
  • Home button is a touch sensor type
  • There is no Hendfon jack

IPhone 7 wrote that the design got cool, but it may be a little unrelated to the person wearing the case. So, I do not bother to design and I do not have to change to iPhone 7.

The biggest disadvantage is that the home button has been changed to a touch sensor type rather than a physical formula.

I also thought about how to pick it up as a disadvantage, but it is a doubtful point whether a person who used the iPhone for a click feeling can get a satisfactory click feeling. However, although it is a touch sensor type, I feel comfortable using such feeling because I feel feedback pushed when I click it.

Also, because there is no headphone jack, it can be said that you can not use headphones while charging while paying attention.
