What's wrong with 326ppi?

Or 750 x 1334 for that matter. I have a G3 with its UHD (2K) screen, there is absolutely no way one can tell me its screen is better than that of a Iphone 6. On bigger phones you will notice it, but the the Iphone 6 is to small to notice....
UHD is anyway a sales gimmick, its impossible seeing a difference between 1080p and UHD, but it halves the battery life :cry:
 
Anything over 300ppi is fine for a phone.

As said, higher resolutions just diminish battery life.

Thank you for seeing the light. More pixels to drive = less battery.

The only move I'd like Apple to make regarding their screens is using AMOLED pannels instead of LCD. But even that has its pros and cons.

No headphone jack on the 7 plus at least. I've posted a couple of videos of the iPhone 7 plus on the other thread.

Bluetooth headset.
No audio jack.
Dual camera's.

I'm not convinced , that Bluetooth headset looks hideous for an Apple product
 
I will wait for the 7s, from now on I will always get the (s) version, I might wait a year but the last itteration was a huge change from 6 to 6s

Not that crap again. "No one needs bigger phones" and then the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus were the best sellers ever.

Just because it's not available in the Apple range doesn't mean it's useless. If the other phones can have 2K screens with good battery lift, Apple can surely do something "magical" as well.

That is true but some how Apple get it completely wrong.
Low resolution and crap battery life (I had a 6s for 10 months)

I agree that there isn't really a reason for massive resolutions like 2k and 4k on a 5 inch device but going from a 1080p phone to a iPhone 6s was a massive downgrade for me. Chalk and cheese. Especially text.
 
The iPhone 7 Plus has allegedly ran the GeekBench multiplatform testing suite and managed a single-core score of 3379 points. That's 10% more than what the phone managed back in July when it first appeared on the benchmark's database.

However, when assessing that difference keep in mind that this new test was performed using the new Geekbench 4, while the previous one used then-available Geekbench 3. The results are not directly comparable across the two versions of the benchmark, because "Geekbench 3 is normalized around an Intel Core i5-2520M having a score of 2500, while Geekbench 4 is normalized around an Intel Core i7-6600U having a score of 4000", according to XDA-Developers. Geekbench 4 should overall prove to be much more accurate, but the key point here is this - the same device tested in both Geekbench 3 and 4 will yield different results in each.


We'll need to wait for a bit more time to pass and more devices to be put through the paces of the new Geekbench 4 in order to assess how well Apple's latest is doing compared to the competition.

The iPhone 7 Plus and iPhone 7 will be official on Wednesday following Apple's dedicated smartphone event.

Benchmarks are meaningless. real world performance is more important.

We all know iPhone devices are multitasking beasts even if they only sport a dual core. Afaik the iphones 6s is the fastest phone available. Imagine what the 7 will do
 
FiestaST said:
Yup...already the 6s beats the "best"...Note7...imagine 7 Plus with 3gb & A10...

It won't matter to the droids. We all know they just compare numbers on a paper. They'll be like it's 2016 and the latest iPhone only ships with 3GB ram and a dual core, must be sheit

Um.

You do realize that you and FiestaST was doing a circle jerk about the iPhone outperforming the Note 7 using the same number comparison?
