iPhone 7 and 7 Plus

[biometrics]

It's an OS function. But obviously full screen apps like games etc won't have the quick back button at the top.

Is it new to iOS 10? I've got an iPad 3 with iOS 9 and haven't noticed it.

Is it new to iOS 10? I've got an iPad 3 with iOS 9 and haven't noticed it.

New to iOS 9 feature according to this:

In iOS 9, that's no longer necessary. When you tap on a button or link in an app or notification that directs you to another app, iOS 9 will replace the signal meters in the upper left with a back button —just tap it go back to where you were. It also works with the improved search in iOS 9.

Hold on. Are we talking about the same thing here? There is the last app function and then there is left swipe. The latter is paging back within the app itself, the former at the top goes to the previous app.

Bio is asking about a back button

So if one app, say Tapatalk, opened a browser and I go "back" on iOS, will it close the browser and go back to Tapatalk?

 

[Raithlin]

Remembered another trick. Hard (3D) press on the left middle of the screen brings up a shortcut to previous apps - like double tapping the home button.

Most Expensive Place to Buy iPhone Is No Longer Brazil

Deutsche Bank’s annual “Mapping the World’s Prices” report shows that Turkey is now the most expensive place to buy an iPhone. The survey was first reported on Business Insider.

Turkey took over the top spot from Brazil this year because of a “combination of political instability” and “the big ramp in US dollar appreciation against global currencies after Donald Trump’s win smashed the Lira late last year.”

The price for an iPhone 7 in the transcontinental country is 147 percent higher than what you would pay for the device in the United States; $1,200 vs. $815 for the 128GB model. As of today, May 4, a 128GB iPhone 7 would cost $1,210 in Turkey, as one U.S. dollar equals 3.55 Turkish liras.

Not surprising, the iPhone is least expensive in the U.S. (as well as Japan).

Brazil is now No.2 on the list, followed by Russia, Greece, and Poland. At the other end of the spectrum, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and Canada only see a small premium over U.S. prices.

Here’s the entire list:

Apple’s expected to unveil its 2017 iPhone lineup this fall. The upcoming handset could include an OLED screen, among other new features.

Those cases are fugly.

Those cases are fugly.

But durable.

 

[Dave]

But durable.

Wrapping the phone in 20 meters of bubble wrap would also be durable, but no one is advocating that...

Though such a fugly case would really mean the phone would stay pristine, anyone with taste who was forced to use that case would lock the phone in a drawer at home as they wouldn't want to be seen in public with something like that .

+1 on the 2nd point.
