Measurements of an Iphone 7 Plus

話題沸騰中の Measurements of an Iphone 7 Plusについて、詳しいまとめを整理して公開しています。

Apple cranked up the speakers to stereo for the first time. Measurements? You had one speaker firing downward (like a polite toot) and one firing out the earpiece (like a megaphone from hell). Combined, they could hit about 75 decibels, which is just loud enough to annoy a dog from another zip code. You could blast “Uptown Funk” in the shower and have your neighbors question their life choices.

But here’s the kicker: the phone was thicker and heavier than many newer models, yet it lacked a headphone jack. Yes, they removed the 3.5mm port. So you had to carry a dongle that measured as small as a cigarette butt—and lost just as easily. That dongle was the official first step toward Apple’s plan to make you buy wireless earbuds and cry into the void.

The Battery That Lasted a Long Commute

The battery inside this beast was a 2,900 mAh unit. That’s enough juice to survive a full day of Instagram, a two-hour Netflix binge, and a frantic Uber ride. It could also last through a 30-hour talk time—if you had friends, which I didn’t. Surprisingly, the iPhone 7 Plus had a better battery life than the iPhone 8 Plus. Progress is a lie.

And get this: the phone measured only 0.29 inches thick, but it contained a 1,900-micron thick silicon battery. That’s thinner than a human hair, yet it could power a screen that was 2.78 inches wide in landscape mode. It was like fitting a semi-truck engine into a Smart car. Apple engineers are either wizards or demons. Possibly both.
