A preview to what the iPhone 7 might become

IPhone
7 has been making a lot of noise lately. We've been hearing rumors about what
it will look like and what game-changing
features it will have although we don't even know whether it would still be called Iphone 7 or some other name. For now, there are only a few information available about
what Apple will unveil in its highly anticipated annual event this September. Here are some of the key features that we can
expect with the incoming IPhone 7.
Dual-Lens Camera
Apple always wants to
have the best camera in the market. In order to achieve this, they will be
implementing a dual-lens camera with the iphone 7. What makes this dual-lens camera
special?
We are now in the age of advanced
computational photography where images are no longer a result of a single lens
but rather a calculated output from a combination of two or more image sensors.
Some of the leading smartphone companies like Huawei and LG have already launched
products that feature this technology.
With the dual-lens camera, the image
output can achieve high quality due to the improved noise reduction especially
in low light conditions and improved color sampling as well. High quality
zooming can now be done even without actual moving optics. The technology
allows a significant amount of “virtualization” of otherwise physical optical
processes.
Wireless Earbuds
One
of the trademarks that Apple is known for is sleek thin design. With the IPhone 7, they want to be consistent
with it. What has been that bottleneck
for reducing the IPhone’s thickness was the earphone slot. Apple found a solution to
this problem by getting rid of it and use Bluetooth earphones instead. This will surely enable
the IPhone 7 to be millimeters thinner than the iphone 6/6s.
IOS 10
Of
course to adjust with the changes in features, hardware and design, a more
advanced operating system will be required. There is a high possibility that we
will witness an IOS 10 along with the launching of the Iphone 7. Some of the
iOS 10 features that we will look forward to include:
Storage optimization
This
will allow the user to instruct the device to automatically delete files that
were not being used for a long time.
Easier location sharing
You
can easily share your location using the IPhone 7 messaging app. Once someone asks
“where are you?”, there is a pop up that allows you to share your current
location.
Remove stock iOS apps, finally!
Some
installed apps in the iPhone are not actually being used by all users and they
only consume memory. The iOs 10 will now allow users to uninstall these apps
that they don’t use.
Easily unsubscribe from mailing lists
It
will now be easier to unsubscribe to any mailing list that you don’t want to be
part of.
Live Filters for Live Photos
The
iOs 9 introduced live photos but was not able to support live filters as well.
The iOs 10 will basically let people enjoy live photos and live filters at the
same time.
Supports inline video playback
With
this feature you can play any video without having to watch it full-screen.
There is an option to resize the video and then view other webpages simultaneously.
A10 processor
Just
like the upgrade in the operating system, a more powerful processor is also necessary.
This new processor might be able to accommodate up to 2 GB ram. There are
rumors that this processor will have 6 cores! Imagine the level of
multi-threading and computational power that this can offer. For the past
years, Apple has been partnering with TSMC and Samsung for manufacturing its
processors, but this time, they might be looking into partnering with Intel who
will help them materialize their plan to advance further the manufacturing
process from previously 14 to 16 nm to only 10 nm!
