Have they finally made the front camera able to do actually useful selfies (include background and people in it)?

This is the one feature that seems to set Samsung phones apart and I can't wait to ditch my S7 Edge but vacation and friend selfies are currently impossibly inferior on an iPhone.

Please no selfie stick comments... (they need to be banned).

Here's the news on the front camera update, straight from Apple:

New 7MP front-facing camera. Love your selfie.
The FaceTime HD camera is not only higher resolution, but it also uses wide color capture. So now you can take sharper and more vibrant selfies. Worried about lighting? The Retina Flash matches the ambient light for a shot with natural-looking skin tones. Hello, gorgeous.
Both selfie sticks and selfies are idiotic and are the epitome of a trifling and egocentric society.
