And now to the news and materials that have been a lot in the last seven days. Let's start with the latest information about the coming flagship of Apple, the so-called iPhone 8. A week ago, the smartphone is far from the most natural location of the fingerprint scanner Touch ID - on the rear surface. Fortunately, these rumors were refuted, and not only words.
The first insider Veniamin Geeskin, who published iPhone 8 layout photos obtained by him from Foxconn employee. The pictures confirmed most of the previous leaks, but only pleasant. The iPhone layout 8 is a beamless display, a double vertical camera and an elongated power button.
The layout indicates the many features of the anniversary iPhone, but the main thing is that there is nothing on its back surface, except for the double vertical chamber (still repelled from the case). This means that Apple engineers managed to place the fingerprint scanner Touch ID in another place. The layout of its exact location does not show, but makes hints. So, the elongation of the power button could well be needed to place the scanner itself into it. According to the experience of Sony, a long-standing fingerprint scanner in the lateral power button, this solution will be quite successful.
Requirmed by such Apple plans and anonymous "draining" in the WEIBO Chinese Social Network. The person who said that he has connections with the employees of the key production partners Apple published on the Social Schools schematic image of iPhone 8 . It does not tell anything new - the smartphone has an elongated form and a vertical double camera. However, the Touch ID scanner on the back cover is not seen, which is an additional confirmation of Apple's refusal from such a controversial solution. Note that the owners of the new flagship Samsung, Galaxy S8, called the placement of the fingerprint scanner on the back cover, right next to the camera lens, poor engineering solving of the South Korean company. Apple is better not to do so.
Touch ID did not seem on the back surface of the iPhone 8 and on the case for the smartphone, photo which leaked to the Internet. The snapshot convinced everyone else in the intentions of Apple to equip the anniversary iPhone vertical double camera and an elongated power button. These features seem to really wait. The experience of previous years is hinting at which the main chips of new iPhone thanks to leaks became known long before the presentation.
Mentioned above Veniamin Geeskin later noted by another "drain". I still refer to the Foxconn employee, he published a schematic image of components Anniversary iPhone. According to the illustration, the iPhone 8 will have a double L-shaped battery that will make the newest Apple smartphone in the market. The image shows that a significant part of the space inside the iPhone 8 occupy batteries. Their smartphone has two, as other analysts predicted before and predicted. It is assumed that the joint capacity of batteries will be 2,700 mAh.
Finishing about iPhone 8, we want to recommend chic concept The next apple flagship. Conceptsiphone resource designers showed how the iPhone 8 may look like (it is also an iPhone X or iPhone Edition) in white. It turned out great, such an iPhone is all waiting.
At last week, Apple has released two beta versions of iOS 10.3.2 - fourth and fifty on account. Both updates brought with them solely error corrections, especially difference between iOS 10.3.2 Beta 4 ( what's new). True, all the cradled mistakes were insignificant - serious problems, the joy of users, in iOS 10.3 and iOS 10.3.1 was not observed.
Meanwhile, users found in iOS 10 another strange bug . To use a new bug is not required long. All that is needed is to open the management point, and then simultaneously touch the three buttons: Night Shift, Airdrop and one of the three presented in the bottom row (calculator, camera or timer). Immediately after that, iPhone or iPad, even running the latest Beta versions iOS 10.3.2, will hang. It will help to return the device to life only forced reboot. It is noteworthy that the error was not corrected in the last beta versions of iOS 10.3.2. It is likely that it will get to the final version of the system.
Calm in the jailbreak world was broken. Chinese hacker group Pangu, known hacking of several IOS versions, managed to implement jailbreak iOS 10.3.1 On the iPhone 7. The result of its work developers have shown in the framework of a mobile security conference that has passed in China. It is more pleasant that hackers clarified - they have plans for the release of a publicly available means for jailbreak. In other words, soon the iPhone and iPad users can again have the ability to "hack" your devices.
Before the conference WWDC 2017. It remains a little more than a month, and about iOS 11 very little proven information. Apple Music Director Jimmy Ayovin decided not to rely on insiders, and revealed himself one of the mains IOS 11 innovations. He stated that the music "Music" and the Apple Music Music Service in IOS 11 are waiting for major changes. In particular, there will be more video - original TV shows and various programs from Apple and its partners.
Apple services are developing now. April 25 Visa carriers "Sberbank" got the opportunity Use Apple Pay payment service. The influx of new Apple Pay users is expected serious, because earlier Sberbank had only support for MasterCard cards. Learn more about what Apple Pay is how to configure the service and which devices it supports you can in this article .
In the future, Apple Pay will seriously expand its functionality. The new leak indicated that the company is negotiating with banks and payment systems on the launch of its own
On Wednesday, the Slashleaks website has appeared photographs of the rear panel of the iphone SE successor. Judging by the leakage, in the new smartphone, in addition to a compact 4-inch display, a glass case will be used. The use of glass in the smartphone housing may indicate that the iPhone SE sample 2017 will support wireless charging.
A year later, the company returns to a compact format of phones. The smartphone market is changing as saturation, the growth of sales of new devices slows down. With the help of the successor, Apple mini flagship intends to correct the situation.
Each year, Apple presents the public a new iPhone, and every year she calls it the best in history. A new processor, graphics, improved camera and software make your business. But in recent years, the pace, with which new features and possibilities are added, is reduced. In any case, Kupertinovtsy can be successful to find all new ways to make smartphones more attractive for buyers, but compared with earlier innovation models in the last flagships are not such revolutionary.
Special version
iPhone SE came out in spring last year. The form factor of this model is perhaps one of the biggest advantages. Four-link display love many. Such a smartphone is placed in a pocket of narrow jeans, does not occupy a lot of space in the handbag and more convenient lies in small hands.
Apple has made the device size equal to iPhone 5 / 5S, so that the corresponding covers are suitable. Great news for those who take a novelty as a replacement "Five". The lack of "tuberca" from the camera on the back cover pleases those whom turns from their presence in the top models. You need to pay for it slightly thicker than it is required to accommodate the entire iron filling, the case.
the second generation iPhone SE will be equipped with all the latest iPhone technologies, but will receive an updated glass case. The device is expected to acquire the support of 3D Touch gestures, and gets the fishes of the autumn flagship iPhone 7.
The current iPhone SE is deprived of many of the functions of senior models. But the audience for which Apple produces this model is not important. Smartphones have become an integral part of our life, so gadgets must adapt to it. Many want to have a compact and productive iPhone, which is convenient to use one hand, especially if we are talking about operations with the "on the go" interface.
Apple takes into account customer wishes. In the iPad model, three form factor with different screen diagonal: from 7.9 to 12.9 inches. And the same principle the company adheres to his smartphones, offering models with a diagonal of 4 to 5.5 inches.
iPhone SE without flaws
1.2-megapixel front camera in the current iPhone SE as in the iPhone 5S is one of the key flaws of the model, because the main camera in it is modern. But the reason why happened so, prosaic - the entire front panel of the device, including the camera, is simply taken from the iPhone 5S, up to the fact that during repair they are interchangeable. Therefore, the camera remained old.
And from this flows the second key disadvantage - the screen in its characteristics is identical to the iPhone 5S display invented in 2013. The same permission (1136 x 640 pixels), the same matrix (IPS), the same level of contrast (800: 1).
Touch ID ID of the first generation will make the "dispersion" of the device not so fast, as used users of the iPhone 7. The iPhone SE also does not have 3D touch - a function debuting in the iPhone 6S. No for the same reason as in the case of contrast - screen technology is here from iPhone 5S.
All these disadvantages of Apple intend to eliminate in the new 4-inch iPhone of the 2017 sample.
Ecosystem iPhone.
The new 4-inch iPhone is really important for Apple. The company clearly understand that the smartphones of the same size are not suitable for everyone. Let the iPhone SE sales indicators do not explode the market, but they accurately allow themselves to feel more confident entire line of devices in general, including future models. The updated high-class model contributes to the formation of a full-fledged iPhone ecosystem.
If you look back into the past, you can remember that this has already happened with Mac. After the exit of the original Macintosh in 1984, the company continued to develop this concept. She produced all new form factors while the computer did not turn into a single ecosystem from one product.
It has been around for more than a year since Apple paid serious attention to the compact segment of smartphones, once belonged to him. She did it by releasing the iPhone SE - a 4-inch device that combined the hardware successes of the iPhone 6S inside the iPhone case 5. This recipe was successful - iPhone SE is still one of the best ultra-compact phones you can buy, reports.
Although not so much time passed, iPhone SE, as reported, will be changed by an improved iPhone SE 2017, a new member of the compact scene. Although it is known about this, a bunch of specifications and a couple of real photos, which recently appeared, poured some oil into the fire. Who knows, can Apple tell us this new iPhone SE on the WWDC 17 summit, which starts on June 5?
Apple iPhone SE Design and Display (2017)
It seems that the new iPhone SE 2017 will not have almost no resemblance to its predecessor - if you believe the recent leakage, Apple will discard the oldskal metal design, changing it to fashionable and glossy glass. This is exactly what the leak shows: a bunch of rear panels, which proudly boast an Apple emblem and an updated design of the flash camera. The new iPhone SE 2017 is reportedly boasting the rear panel of ION-X glass, consisting of the same material that is used for glass and reports is just as durable as Corning in the last iterations Gorilla Glass.
As for the overall design of the next iPhone SE, we assume that it may look like a mixture of iPhone 6 and iPhone 5C, but with glass. The front of the device will certainly look like any other iPhone, with a round "home" button and built-in touchd fingerprint scanner.
The display size is likely to stay 4 inches. It is rumored that Apple can supply the OLED display on this phone, but it is unlikely - much more believable that it will be first introduced on the iPhone 7S / 8. The screen is likely to still have a 640 x 1336-pixel Retina display, since we do not expect the update.
Hardware
The next generation of iPhone SE 2017 is likely to continue to perform unprecedented performance standards installed by its successor, and will also add some improvements. Compact iPhone SE 2017 is most likely boasting Apple A10 Fusion chipset, supplemented by 2 gigabytes of RAM. It seems that it will be an impressive combination, and we really hope that rumors are justified.
Apple iPhone SE Camera (2017)
Almost nothing is known about the camera on the next generation iPhone SE. You can confidently assume that the device or inherits the installation of the iPhone 7 camera, or will not improve anything at all. All that we still know is that the location of the camera and flash will be slightly updated - the flash will be positioned directly at the bottom of the camera lens, unlike any of the current iPhone.
release date
We do not know whether the iPhone SE is announced on WWDC 17. Given that this is a pure program summit, we doubt that Apple will launch a new phone in June of this year, but we will not completely give up this hearing. In the end, surprises happen constantly, and Apple is definitely among their "performers".

How long have this device?
Do you use it until now? If not - why did it part?
I use it, I do not plan to part, I expect that with a successful scenario will last a couple of years.
How did this device get to you? What criteria was chosen? Where and how much bought?
Purchase has become the result of another long and painful suffering on the topic "Optimal set of gadgets". This year I have to move to study in relatively warm European edges for a couple of years, which has several consequences. To wear in the warm season in the pocket of Trouser Note 5 (see the story), but this process does not cause the delight, I wanted something smaller. For entries at lectures was bought by the iPad Pro with a stylus, after this there was a desire to unify the zoo ecosystems and return to the iPhone. The budget allowed everything, including the base 7 plus, but, as usual, the toad intervened.
"Pros" (at least, and) did not want to take, because:
a) expensive;
b) and so there is an iPad;
c) they are healthy (unjustified, in my opinion, Note 5 is less diagonally);
d) the only kind of crime, common in the future place of residence, is a pocket theft, so I didn't really want to lose my dear device with the risk of risk.
An ordinary seven for his current 36-37 thousand looked quite a good option, but the toad and it seemed too much spent. As a result, at the final stage, the choice was made between different modifications released for the third world countries with a six-year-old GB for 24 thousand and 6 Plus recovered for 28-29. The latter still seems to me a very good option with a wonderful battery life, a good screen, a camera, and the like. But big.
I watched a long time ago and first thought about modifications by 64 and 128 GB, but then at some point Apple has dropped prices around the market until 19990 (and now in some places, the PCT can still find thousands of one and a half) and pay extra for large volumes Memory under one hundred dollars seemed unreasonable me. After reading the reviews about buying at 4pda, I decided to simplify the task, I went on offline stores to make sure that there is no screenshots. One hundred years did not buy the phones in this way, the sensations are unusual ☺.
It is worth noting that in the comments to reviews almost everywhere there are people who are horrified by the idea that this design is 5 years old. I want to ask: "So what?" He, I do not know, does not go well because of this and does not fall apart on the part? Now everyone hit the bent sidewalls, it looks very beautiful on professional filming and on the showcase, but only everything is then dressing this beauty into covers, and otherwise it is scary. I looked at, yes, he is beautiful, but a sense of this beauty.
What do you like? Strengths, dignity.
Size and design. And once again 10 size. The phone is perfectly placed in any pocket, including a chest shirt pocket. Does not interfere. Not felt. Very light. Does not slip out of the hands. Little pleasant metal bar. You take in your hands - you are a thing, that's all this.
Almost everywhere interface is quite well adapted for a small screen size. The font is shallow only in Safari in vertical mode.
One of the key moments in my sufferings with the choice was the moment when I realized that I could blind text on the standard keyboard, and at the output it turns out almost perfectly, and on Samsung, where the buttons due to the size larger and stands all of yourself Machine learning and artificial intelligence Keyboard Google, forever jambs. I don't know how so, but the Apple keyboard in most cases is very well a typos and picks up the desired replacement options.
You can forget about the sufferings of the type "I used the cards - turn off GPS" and generally forget about closing applications, the inclusion of energy saving, thoughtful digging "which application is that resolve", etc., to live to the evening (conditionally from 8 am to 11 pm). This is with quite active use in the first days, numerous walks with cards, etc.
Oddly enough, the front camera was completely balanced. Yes, the resolution is small, but also hellish geometry distortion, and the colors are not bad.
The fingerprint sensor works greatly better than the previous devices on Android.
The power is enough for more than and more likely the probability is enough for a couple of years, given that playing heavy games on such a screen - the task is not for the faint of heart, but not worth waiting for any virtual reality with such permission. But at the same time, from the point of view of any synthetic benchmarks, in terms of the ruble of money, it is probably destroyed by plus / minus almost all that is in the market.
What do not like? Weaknesses, disadvantages.
The camera in terms of work in the dark is worse compared to the Nexus 5x, and with Note 5. They have physically larger the matrix, and the second is also an optical stabilizer, under conditions of poor illumination, it gives a fundamental difference in quality. But I was quite ready for this. Another question is that the quality of color reproduction y, my taste, better than both the devices listed above. And in the harsh post-processing photographs from the phone, pulling the RAW "s in Lightroom" e, etc. I do not believe - it kills the entire idea of \u200b\u200bmobile photography.
What do you miss in it?
From realistic Wishlist - Quickly launch the camera double by pressing some buttons, like on Nexus 5x and Samsunga. In the summer it is not very important, although it would be more convenient that it would be more convenient, but in winter it allows not to take gloves. Otherwise, everything fully fits into the concept of reasonable sufficiency. From a little less realistic - it would be great to get moisture protection, but, probably, on the current chassis it is not so easy to do.
What functions do you use often? What functions do you use occasionally? What functions do not use at all?
A bit dialer, mail, quite a lot of browser and messengers, any alarms, calendars, calculators. Maps are needed, all sorts of transport applications. Camera, Yandex.Music. Slightly reading, for this there is an iPad. While little Siri, it's hard for me to get used to talking to the phone. Maybe over time I will buy a clock, I will get used to it.
Have you had to repair the device?
Not. But here there is one important plus, screen and glass - two different parts, respectively, maintainability above, the cost below. Apple, however, began to repair the screens in the formal order, but in any case it is small, but add. Plus in favor of the conservative design.
What trouble happened to the device? What glitches were noticed?
Nothing yet.
Try to compare this device with other models that you have to use.
From now to compare it hard, it has already been one and a half or two years ago. He then did not slow down, so there is no fundamental difference in this part of the principal difference, the camera definitely became better and the battery life is very pleasant. At the current difference in the price of thousands in three (especially with the difference of 16 GB, anti-32 SE, - worse, and strongly, the imprint sensor. On the iPhone I have not had any problem with the triggering, the permanent war has been "to attach a samsung The finger is right. "But, you need to give Note 5 and Samsung due - with the seventh android and life from the battery has become better, and with the imprint of the problems a little less.
What else can you say?
In my opinion, and the iPad 2017 is two beautiful devices from Apple in terms of a combination of price and opportunities. Wash on the topic of re-use design, I, as already said, I do not understand. What is the difference how much is this design, if you like and suits you? Especially if it allows to make the price very lower.
It is necessary to understand that - not a universal device and for obvious reasons is not suitable. But if you are such a size / format, it is an excellent option for your money. In his niche, essentially the only one. Taking into account this 10 points.
Igor
iPhone SE 2017 is characterized by an extremely updated memory, which means both price. Instead of the usual 16 and 64 gigabytes of memory, 32 either 128 is available, and the cost will be 32990 rubles. and 40990r.
Colors remained the same, gray space, silver, gold and rose gold. SE is equipped with 2 gigabytes of RAM and Apple A9 processor plus M9 coprocessor. Now, due to the low screen resolution, SE works faster than iPhone 7. It goes all the most powerful games, and applications open instantly.
Screen
As for the screen, the problem with the deviation in colors did not solve, there is not the best IPS matrix, with a resolution of 1136x640 pixels. Under the corners, the black color goes into red, all the others in blue, it is neither good, but it is impossible to call a bad screen, just not ideal.
Cameras
Cameras. Behind, it is still a 12 megapixel sensor, the same as the iPhone 6S. And I will tell you that from the iPhone 7, the camera in quality does not differ in almost no way, it can even be called a top one in SE, which cannot be said about 1.2 megapixel front, frankly the quality is not acceptable for current standards.
Autonomy
But the incredible autonomy of SE, having a battery in just 1624MA, the phone is able to hold out from a full day, up to two days with moderate load. Simply put on the level of 7 plus, and better than 7.
What is good SE?
What is good SE? Now essentially this is the only option for those who need a modern smartphone with a small screen. It is very compact, and even in the case remains compact. Simply put, one hand use extremely conveniently.
It is a pity that they did not update the Touch ID, he here is the first generation, quite slow. If Apple had made a single key on the front of the touch, as in the iPhone 7, then all the questions dropped to SE.
All the same colors
It would be of course to see SE in the color of Onyx, but the gray space also does not look bad too. In a word, it would be possible to further modify a 4-inch iPhone. But maybe Apple is preparing a mini version for the future generation. We'll see.
Now choosing the iPhone, it is definitely not worth watching 6s or 6s Plus, the seven is a little more expensive, but it is SE that seems the most balanced iPhone. There are no serious problems with this phone, you only need to lie in a compactness.
Why not iPhone7?
Why not 7? Yes No, the seven is also good, only after Galaxy S8, Apple Vryatli will release some weak update with the letter S. We will most likely see a completely new, anniversary iPhone with without a frame screen and a seven on his background will look like last century. A SE externally has long been like last century, so there is nothing to worry here, you immediately know what you go.
Compared to Samsung Galaxy S8
Output
Responding to the main question, yes, in 2017, iPhone SE is more than relevant.
