Is the new iPhone worth it?
Techradar

When the galaxy note 7 was released right before the IPhone people were amazed because the phone was great. My friend had one and enjoyed it very much, but Apple had a great break when the batteries inside the Galaxy note 7 were exploding. This meant the Note 7 had to be recalled, which turned people's attention over to Apple to look at the new iPhone 7. So the new phone that is on everyone's mind is the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 plus. After the release, the few major changes that the phone has over the previous model could truly change the playing field. So is the iPhone 7 worth the update? I think so. I have an iPhone 6 and possible will be updating to the iPhone 7 plus.

iPhone 7

The iPhone 7 is a very nice phone and contains an update to keep up with android. Such as the water resistance body now, it is a great improvement to see that Apple is giving people a must need for a lot of daily use. So now if you spill something on your phone guess what, it will be ok. This was a happy improvement that apple made to their iPhone.

Now the big problem with the phone is no jack and not Leonardo DiCaprio from titanic, the headphone jack is missing. Now do not get me wrong I miss the headphone jack as well, yet Apple does have an adapter for the phone to allow a person to use the headphone jack through the lighting port. There is a problem with that, how is a person able to charge their phone and listen to their music at the same time. Unfortunately, you can't unless you have Bluetooth headphones. Now the iPhone 7 and the 7 Plus both share great cameras. The 7 has an upgraded front camera (7 megapixels) and a rear camera (12 megapixels). They have an increased stabilization feature so the photos will have a better chance of not coming out blurry when used for quick action shots.

iPhone 7 Plus

The IPhone 7 is a great phone, but the great success is in the iPhone 7 Plus. Like I just spoke about the iPhone 7 Plus has a nice new 12-megapixel camera. Yet, there is another great camera feature the Plus has a dual camera system which takes beautiful photos. I have been trying for a week to get the iPhone 7 Plus and it has been so difficult. The 7 Plus is in very high demand, compared to the regular iPhone 7 which may still be tough to get your hands on it is still not as desired as the Plus. The battery lives of both phones have increased, it was not dramatic a 1% increase to the 7's battery life and an extra 5% to the Plus.

Afte all has been said and done I would be happy to upgrade from my iPhone 6 to the 7 or even better the 7 Plus. Thank you for giving my article a read I hope it will help you deside if the opitions for the phone may be something you are looking for.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
