iPhone 7 is best Apple device yet in DxOMark Mobile testing

On the other hand, iPhones don't blow up or melt your hand off.

Choices, choices... :)

On the other hand, they sometimes do too:

I was an Anti-Apple blindboy till i tried a Hackintosh and never looked back. Best decision i ever made thk to my boss forcing me switched to OSX.

Yap, you are right.

My love for Windows was so blind i hated everything Apple now my love for Apple is also blind, i would pay anything to use Apple .... because it just works!

But i won't be trying hard to convince anyone who doesn't like Apple products, It's their lost, not mine.

@Daft Punk,
"On the other hand, iPhones don't blow up or melt your hand off. "
Apple products just blow your mind and melt your wallet...

I'm not an Apple hater. In fact i used both Android and Apple (Sony Xperia and iPhone 5) at the same time for a period of time. I started with Android but got an iPhone also later because of all the rage i hear about it. Not long after, i switched back to Android, and my iPhone 5 is left on my computer table collecting dust. It doesn't mean that the iPhone is bad or inferior. In fact, I find it easy to use. Very user friendly - that is if you use it mainly as a phone. It is powerful, but it doesn't allow you to fully tap it's full potential, unless you jailbreak it. As an owner of the phone, you cannot fully determine what you can do to it. It "controls" how you controls it. It determines what you can do to it. Android phones however, allows you to control how you use it, in the way you want to use it. You're the boss, so use it the way you like. When i forgot to take my thumb drive along, i must plug my Android phone into the computer, and suddenly it becomes a thumbdrive with huge and expandable capacity and I can drag and drop whatever files i want to and from the computer to my hearts delight.
"Oh, that picture of that birthday girl on your phone is nice! Can i have it?" " Oh sure! Come, tap the back of your phone to mine "and tada, that picture is now in my phone. Now i want to see that picture in full resolution so I'll " throw" the image (or video recording of the birthday party) on my sister's 60 inch tv- all without needing extra software or hardware. "You have a recording of yesterday's lecture? Can Bluetooth or NFC me?" "Oh sure, but i think it'll take a while and I'm rushing. Can you pass me your thumb drive instead? Oh, could you also put the recording of your discussion of that topic over the telephone with our lecturer into it the thumb drive also? Thanks." (These are just some examples)
When i want to put a coin into the piggy bank, i just slot it into the opening of that piggy bank. That's how Android works.
For Apple, i would have to put a specially shaped "funnel" into the slot of the piggy bank, then put the coin into the "funnel" to let the" funnel" guide the coin into the piggy bank (or out of the piggy bank). When I use Android phones, I am the owner and boss. When i use the iPhone, i am the owner but can't quite be the boss.

@aiwentimotai
Your rant above is the stuff of Apple-hater so please don't deny it. It insults all of us.

You compared one iPhone and one Android phone for a short period of time and you think you "get it". I have used the latest iPhone along with LG G2, Note 3, Amazon Fire and Note 5 together for extended period time. I find iPhones much more reliable, consistent, smooth and less-gimmicky & buggy than Android phone.

There is no "you want this feature?, download this launcher", "something not working?, jailbreak using this to avoid tripping KNOX", "the update for AT&T is out so hopefully T-Mobile will have it in a month" and "just install CyanogenMod but the pen won't be supported and one of the mic won't work."

I have spend so much time jailbreaking and trying out launcher/MODs on my Android phones trying to get it just right it eats into my time. iPhone is like a lifestyle companion... it is there when you need it and don't bother you otherwise. I like that.

"Ihave spend so much time jailbreaking and trying out launcher/MODs on my Android phones"

That was almost convincing. Except you can't "jailbreak" Android phones.
That's where credibility went out of the window, twice actually.

@Peiasdf
"I find iPhones much more reliable, consistent, smooth and less-gimmicky & buggy than Android phone."

Yeah. That's why people use iPhone, it's very hard to tell Anti-Apple guys that we don't really care for who invent this features first or which phones are most-spec-sheet. Some mobile users, like me just want the most reliable device to get works done in an OS that doesn't evolve so rapidly that each major update require a new learning curve. Time is money!

Purchasing a phone that uses an operating system from a company that makes their living almost exclusively by mining personal data. What could possibly go wrong?

Don't think you can preset away the AMOLED/OLED glass tint when seen from the side/at an angle. Iphones don't have that strong colour bias when tilted.

I've seen a whole gamut of Samsung phones that either have been preset bad or are just the cheaper models that have colour accuracy issues. Some people like it super saturated and that's fine but yeah I'm not one of them.

That said, the S7 edge/Note 7 looked clean like iPhones. None of the green expired LED/plasma screen look. Clean whites.

The printer actually has less down time.

My Sony was not used, but new. And why would I use it for a camera when I have several real cameras? Its a PHONE, dude. And btw, congrats on the used lemon.

Sony Xperia Z5 Compact came out in 2015. Why would you pay $300 for a "new" old phone that have overheating problem?

Au contraire...."Galaxy" is the cool part of the name. Otherwise it's just a boring example of commodity hardware—just like every other cellphone including of course, the iPhone. So be proud, say it loud "I own my own Galaxy!!!!"

and that galaxy is on fire?
hehe

For my part I'm blowing things up in my own Galaxy on Fire 2.

I think the camera is identical in all ways to the S7. That is to say, still the best camera phone on the market.

Re: cybertec69

Yeah, what in the hell was that all about?

It's not the same 12mp sensor. IPhone 7 has a 1/3.0, the Samsung S7 has a 1/2.5 and the nexus 6p has a 1/2.3. The 20+ mp Sonys also have a 1/2.3.
Iphones have not lead in the camera department since the iPhone 4.

@BattleBrat: It is definitely not too far fetched to assume quite similar IQ performance from flagship cameraphones of recent years. Even the combined dual sensor approach (as executed by Huawei/Leica) did not reveal any breakthrough. Combining several RAW Image files has ist limitations, too, as shown in the full DxO report. Actually, the current BSI sensor technology seems at its peak, and there are physical limitiations as to how many photons can be captured by sensors of a certain size. Emphasis is on sensor size here. All These sensors being miniscule (1/3"-1/2.3") in size, they all perform pretty much the same, the software being the main differentiating factor between different cameraphones. That's why I think the OP (karlkk) was spot on with his post.

Well if you cant see the difference between the two focal lengths then I don;t know what to tell you.

darngooddesign: ROFL!

@Darngood

Really? Lol

Using pinch to zoom on the 6s gets the same result as using the dedicated telephoto lens in real life usage. If you're expecting a stop of difference (which would be a decent uograde) be ready to disappointed.

But if defending a non performing product is your thing, go for it. Unlike many 'fanboys/haters' I can actually afford to buy the products and have the eye and time to test them myself. I have the 7 plus and I can honestly say the upgrade is not worth it yet. If that makes you feel defensive then I'm sorry. Maybe once some certain features come out of beta, I can compare it again.

start here: http://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/review/2472079/iphone-7-plus-vs-galaxy-s7-edge-specs-comparison

I would start with the pressure sensitive screen, tied to the class leading haptic feedback with new 3rd party support via an API that is just getting off the ground.

Then again, you might want to start with the fastest mobile processor ever, which happens to also be the most efficient, leading to better battery life and no throttling problems under heavy use. Then again, there isn't much software on Android that pushes the limit of processing power, so most people wouldn't even realize that extreme thermal throttling that can occur under heavy processor loads.

Or you might want to start with the fact that it doesn't explode and is allowed to be used on airplanes?

I have had three iPhones and the battery life on all of them was completely unacceptable. They don't last even an 8-hour day of medium intensity use.

hahaha...... 10 minutes later... hahahaha really hahaha

yes and noon. billions of people are now into taking pictures, whereas decades ago it was less than 1 million. Now the opportunity for the camera companies is to educate these iPhone photographers and show them the benefit of the other cameras. My first car was a $ 2000 corolla. It didn't stay there, once i got into cars, my average car today is a $ 50,000 to 75K car.With your logic the bycicle would have toppled Detroit. OK the japanese cars did.

Maybe DXO is not linear but logarithmic

I'm surprised that they didn't mention the yellow color cast in daylight pictures, like they did with the previous iPhones. It's still there, possibly slightly less prominent though.

iPhone 7S will score 88, believe me.

The color cast / white balance is definitely better in the 7 than the 6S.

Hell no, I hate the clown.

VW owns Bugatti, Audi, Lamborghini, Bently, and Ducati so the fastest Volkswagon is very fast.

And BMW has a long history in Formula One. What's your point? I specifically mentioned VW as a marque, not as an umbrella organization.

Would you prefer if I had said Kia to make my point crystal clear?
