Live Coverage of Apple's 'See You on the 7th' iPhone 7 Event

How would I increase the volume on the AirPods?

Good question. I just learned the other day that you can control volume with Siri...so there's that. I am sure there are other ways though with tapping shortcuts. Maybe single tap left ear for lower voume, single tap right ear for louder volume?

A10 Fusion might finally make my Pokemon Go not lag.

Haha Apple have just announced a quad core mobile processor hahahaha oh all the Apple fans on here that used to gloat how Android needs all those cores because it's OS needs it cause it's crap... Oh dear, what goes around comes around...

Nice to see Apple actually give their devices some oomph, well there mobile phones anyway.

Apple never needed quad core and it doesn't need it now. The A10 will widen the gap even further.

 

[maflynn]

BS on the battery life. not real world usage I bet.

Apple has been pretty accurate with their battery estimates.

 

[applelover4u]

So no price yet?

$299 Im thinking?

 

[mattburley7]

im guessing macOS sierra is just going to be getting a press release when its ready for public.. no mention at all at this event. we will know its close when GM is released.

 

[apolloa]

Oh crap Apple is making me to be veeeerrrryyyyy tempted to upgrade, hmm what's the UK price....

Those are some major improvements that everyone wanted... Bar the removal of the headphone jack.

 

[jbachandouris]

OMG! Another video?!?

Good to see that there's big battery life improvements on the smaller model. My iPhone 6s battery has been running down quicker the past couple months.

Planned obsolescence conspiracy!

This feels like an 'S' model keynote, the only positive thing I took from this is the piano black and jet black.

This is a S release through and through

 

[BMcCoy]

What about for a usage case, which is literally every single day for me where I listen through Aux (3.5MM/3.5MM) (2008 BMW) and need to charge (USB/Lightning) at the same time? Just run my phone battery into the ground while I drive now? Thanks but no thanks. And the dual cameras are hideous. Without question the worst iPhone event of all time.

Same for me.
The SE remains the best and most usable iPhone release of 2016.
I'll be sticking with mine.

 

[samcraig]

Both phones are solid offerings. It's too bad that they won't just offer same features on two different sizes.

Now we get to find out price and storage sizes...

 

[jdillings]

iPhone 7 is the best phone we made....I'm beginning to think they use the same script every year.

 

[unobtainium]

Did someone say horse?

I've noticed women presenters always, always get these kinds of comments. "Can't stand how she looks, sounds, etc." It's par for the course. I'm sure she's sorry that you don't like her voice.

 

[C7 POWER]

That camera hump on the 7 plus...LOL

 

[pat500000]

what happened to iphone 7 pro?

 

[Nevaborn]

To be honest I am impressed Apple never took a cheap shot at Samsung over the Note 7 especially after the Samsung campaigns with it against Apple.

 

[fel10]

Another video with hipsters. Just give us a price already.

 

[AustinIllini]

Still need base storage space info.

 

[S.B.G]

Okay, that video music is reminding me of Ghostbusters... "Saving the day..."

 

[KdParker]

jeezzz...dates --- configurations and price points ...

Let finish this off..

 

[wovel]

So, the "Beats" purchase by Apple is now forcing the new iPhone owners to buy the Apple sold Beats headphones!

Why? Any bluetooth headphone will still work.

 

[frozencarbonite]

what happened to iphone 7 pro?

Welcome to MacRumors.

 

[Jsameds]

They've held a wide margin over Android phones with the single core Geekbench score for some time now.

Time for iPhone to embarrass the competition in multi-core score.

 

[frifra]

I can see a market for adapters that have both 3.5mm jack and lightning socket.

And I can see hundreds of messages popping up: "This adapter is not supported."

 

[xkam1x]

No Mac?

What about for a usage case, which is literally every single day for me where I listen through Aux (3.5MM/3.5MM) (2008 BMW) and need to charge (USB/Lightning) at the same time? Just run my phone battery into the ground while I drive now? Thanks but no thanks. And the dual cameras are hideous. Without question the worst iPhone event of all time.

I am wondering the same thing. I have no problem using an adapter for 3.5 as long as I can charge the phone at the same time. I'm wondering if it is possible for a vendor to create a 3.5 mm + power adapter.
