Apple releases its new iPhone 7

Apple finally unveiled its long-awaited iPhone 7 this week, and almost all of the rumours and leaks ahead of the launch have turned out to be true. The new device is indeed waterproof, and the larger model comes with an impressive dual-lens camera capable of of all kinds of photographic wizardry.

Controversially, Apple has removed the headphone socket from the bottom of the device, meaning you may have to rethink your headphone choices.

Apple has also ditched the 16GB and 64GB models, and introduced a new 256GB model – which has the same amount of storage as Apple’s top-of-the-range iPad Pro.
