The iPhone is to get an edge-to-edge display and a virtual button in the screen next year (September 13)

Just a few days after the introduction of the new iPhone 7, speculation continues about the next anniversary iPhone 8, which should see a design change after a long time. In the iPhone 7 review, the diary The New York Times He mentioned the iPhone 7 about the future of the phone and its next version. According to an unnamed source, a phone with a curved OLED display all the way to the edges will arrive next year. The dream will thus come true for chief designer Jony Ive, who often talks about a glass, unibody iPhone. Apple is said to choose an OLED system instead of an LCD display, due to its thinness and lower consumption.

Another difference should be the complete removal of the Home button. It should be built into the new OLED display, which should still retain the Touch ID functionality. This year's novelty, when the Home button is no longer "clickable", helps such a solution.

iPhone 7 is faster than any MacBook Air in benchmarks (15/9)

John Gruber of the blog Daring Fireball used Geekbench to test the speed of Apple's A10 Fusion chip and see how it compares to other devices. The single-core and multi-core performance of the iPhone 7 beats the latest Samsung Galaxy S7 and Note 7, making it one of the most powerful smartphones ever. It's also interesting that it's faster than all previous MacBook Airs. It was slower only once, and that was in the Air's early 2015 Intel Core i7 multi-core result. The performance of the latest iPhone could be compared with the MacBook Pro from the beginning of 2013, which is powered by an Intel Core i5.

Conan O'Brien takes a shot at wireless AirPods (15/9)

Host and comedian Conan O'Brien took the wireless AirPods to task in a short spot on his late-night show, addressing customers' fears that the headphones will easily fall out of their ears and get lost. For his joke, he used Apple's legendary iPod campaign with silhouettes of people, in which the cables connecting the headphones played an important role.

According to the first reviews, however, this fear is unjustified - it is said that various movements are possible with the headphones without them moving in the ears. But whether universal headphones will suit everyone remains to be seen.

iFixit: Apple Watch Series 2 has a bigger battery (15/9)

Editors from iFixit have traditionally analyzed new Apple products and noticed interesting findings about the Apple Watch Series 2. As expected, the new version of the watch has a larger battery, which is mainly needed by its own GPS and a brighter OLED display. Its capacity grew from 205 mAh to 273 mAh. To connect the frame with the display, Apple uses a stronger adhesive, which is the same type that the editors found in the iPhone 7.

The biggest surprise was probably the discovery of a fake hole for the speaker in place of the former 3,5 millimeter jack. Its place was mainly taken by the larger Taptic Engine, which, in addition to vibrations, also takes care of the haptic response of the new Home button. Further iFixit also confirmed that the dual camera, whose sensor modules are identical, differs mainly in specialized lenses.
