Using sub 100 dollars ear phones, I can feel the quality degradation.

Anyway my 7 Plus taptic engine just decided to fail.

I am using sub $1000 earphones and I can hear some difference. Asked my wife to help me with a blind test and I can identify which is my 6s+ with adaptor, headphone jack and which is the 7+.

Apple photos have the highlights blown. S7Edge have more shadow details and highlights are better controlled. S7E perform better with its bigger aperture F1.7 for night shots.

Some lowlight comparison. Samsung trend towards more contrast and saturation, Apple seems more neutral. Both performed well...

S7E

For close up shots in dimmer condition like this photo, the S7E was a lot easier to focus on the flower, the iphone struggles a bit with focusing in dim lighting. Both captured camera shake, even OIS can't help a bit of shaky hands in dim conditions. Colour wise iPhone 7 handled the colour way way better.

Yup S7E has better dynamic range. Obvious in the low light shots. In good lighting, both are about the same.

the battery standby and usage is always blank after full charge, anyway to solve this issue?

Charge with PC port to full,will give u blank battery standby and usage.Charge with wall plug if u want to monitor the battery usage.

My iPhone 7 plus today do not know y charge for a while getting warn to hot, so I plug out. I discover the hissing sound can listen 10mm from the apple Logo normal will not so loud. I use my iPhone 6s Plus and my iPhone 7 plus to take video as the same time. Video taken by iphone7 phone have the hissing sound. Can I 1 to 1 exchange with M1 or go to the service center. My iPhone only 2 day only

Yea I'm having this issue. Seems like after awhile the app batt usage will be blank too. Seriously hope for a solution to this. I can't track my batt life at all.

I notice that when Im doing full charge with apps screen on, the standby and usage bar will be blank.

anyone sign up for the fonecare+ insurance? just wondering what if I report lost and pay 375sgd for a new phone, then I will have two phones. Carriers will lock the imei but what if the phone to be used in other country.

Quality wise I think both are more than good enough. I do tend to prefer the colours produced by the iP7. For me the thing that's hard to beat is the dual pixel thing on S7E. The auto focus speed is still the fastest I've used on any phone, even in dimmer conditions. Sometimes the iphone will have trouble finding focus, but the S7E will lock on immediately.

Agree on the auto focus speed. Use my friend Samsung phone. Speed is faster than iphone

Wah if can then

But not sure if they can remotely disable the phone..

 

[radzkal]

I have to say. Sound quality of using wired earphones with the adaptor actually has little to no difference. I'm no audiophile but still sound as good as with a headphone jack. So ppl shouldn't worry.

You can try. That is fraud though. Chances of getting caught is low. But really worth the risk just for a $1000+ phone?

I'm not sure which it is, both I guess.

The issue caused the inability to activate functions via "press home button to..."

Bringing go service center now lol

Anyone got issues with iPhone 7 charging? Mine charges slower than mine 6, but I'm alright with it. Main thing is that it gets warm during charging

I think that is because the battery is bigger? But the charger is still the same. I think if you use the iPad charger, it will charge faster.
