However, there are some important things that you should know before spending your hard earned cash on the Apple's new products. Here you go.
No 3.5mm headphone jack
Apple has always been known for taking a step further but that doesn't mean it's always for your benefit. The lack of the headphone jack is by far the biggest shortcoming in the latest iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. If you are buying the new iPhone today, be ready for the hassle of an extra connector- Lightning to 3.5mm adapter to use your standard 3.5mm headphones with the new smartphones.
Thank god Apple is shipping the smartphone with earpods with Lightning connectors and the adapter.
No 16GB and 64GB Storage option
Sadly, there's no 16GB variant for the iPhone 7. The base model now starts from 32GB instead, which is good news for many but that also tips the lowest official price to Rs 60,000.
Moreover, Apple is also not offering 64GB variants of the new iPhones and you have to settle with 128GB after the 32GB storage variant.
Adding to this, the Jet Black variant is only available in 128GB and 256GB storage models, and there's no 32GB model in this colour.
Same design and no significant improvement in battery
The new iPhones looks more or less similar to iPhone 6/6S and has been given some minor cosmetic changes in terms of design.
Moreover, there's no significant improvement on battery grounds.
