Apple announced the release of their newest phone the iPhone 7 which will be released on September 16^th, 2016. There have been numerous rumors going around about how iPhone 7's new design is expected to include similar features as Apple’s biggest competition, Samsung. Such features include waterproofing, flesh level camera with new lenses, changes to the home button, either the introduction of lightning port headphones or wireless headphones, and even a new color.

Although Apple brought out the big guns, Samsung was well ready for them. After Samsung released their Galaxy Note 7 in August, they wanted to get ahead of Apple in order to get their product off the market sooner, but will this hurt them since they don’t know exactly what Apple has brought to the table?

With Apple’s new update, they’re hoping that they’ll be able to knock Samsung out of the ring. Although Apple’s phones aren’t known for being the fastest device, nor for having the best storage, or even for their camera, they are best known for their iOS hardware. Along with the many new physical updates to the phone, Apple has even added a newer security update since it’s court battle with the FBI.

Although Apple has come out with many new changes this does not necessarily mean that Apple is better, just that they have become more aware of what they need to do to keep their client’s attention and to keep them interested in Apple just as they are with Samsung.

However, we’ll have to wait and see once the iPhone 7 is released if it is really worth all of the hype that Apple has given it.
