Apple iPhone 7 series is a huge success in the global market. The new series has two phones which include iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. These two phones have a new processor, powerful camera, and attractive color options. The new series was actually launched on September 16th of 2016 in the USA. The launch price of the iPhone 7 is $649 and the price of the Plus model is $769 in the USA. So it has been quite some time and finally, Nepal is officially getting these two new phones.
By the way, according to a few sources, there are already more than 4,000 iPhone 7 from the grey market registered in Ncell’s network. This shows the charm of iPhones in Nepal and also shows why the government wants everyone to register the IMEI number of smartphones to control the grey market.
The official distributor of Apple products in Nepal is Generation Next and they look after the iPhones. Interestingly, many people have already bought the Apple iPhone 7 from different sources. Some people imported from foreign and some people bought from grey market. Still, it is better late than never and we are happy to see that the phone has come officially. In terms of pricing, the new models are slightly expensive compared to the USA price which is natural.

This year, Apple has launched two phones which are the successor of the previous iPhone 6S series. The new phones come with significant improvements such as improved chassis, faster processor, IP rating, bigger battery, dual camera, and much more. So let us discuss the new hardware, specifications, and pricing of these smartphones.
Apple iPhone 7 Series Hardware and Features
Both phones of the Apple iPhone 7 series come with an Apple A10 Fusion chip which has 4 core CPU and six core GPU. The baseline iPhone 7 has 2 GB RAM while the Plus model comes with 3 GB RAM. Both new phones also come with bigger batteries compared to their predecessors.
Moreover, the Plus model has dual cameras this time. It is a very unique and useful feature. Mainly the second camera helps to take photos with a shallower depth of field which is also being called “Portrait mode“. The front camera has been hugely improved in this new edition. They now feature a 7 MP camera at the front which gives radically better pictures and videos than previous models. These are the major improvements over the previous Apple iPhone 6S Plus and 6S.
Last year, there were some problems with iPhone 6 Plus and the company has resolved them by strengthening the chassis. This time Apple has also added an IP67 rating which means both phones are water and dust-resistant. However, the company has removed the 3.5mm headphone jack from both phones. Apple now provides a headphone inside the box with a lightning connector.

Apple iPhone 7 Specifications and Details
The Apple iPhone 7 uses the same A10 Fusion processor as the Plus version. It only has 4 cores but it is quite fluid in terms of experience. This is due to tight software integration and optimization from Apple. The regular iPhone 7 is a bit different than the bigger Plus model in many aspects. First of all, it has only one 12 MP back camera, it has a smaller screen, smaller battery, and lesser RAM. So battery and RAM are the main things that affect performance.
