iPhone 7 Weaknesses
Pixel X and Pixel XL are about to hit the shelves in the upcoming months. Apple is probably bracing for the most powerful android smartphones in 2016 most especially when iPhone 7 has the following weaknesses that could addressed the latter's weaknesses.
1 - Touch ID makes life harder
iPhone 7 has been reliant to Touch ID for without it the phone won't be unlocked whereas before the upgrade, unlocking the phone came in a traditional way by simply putting the user's passcode. Now, that the Touch ID process relies on the home button, the user must be extra careful not to put too much pressure while pressing to be able to access the Touch ID sensor according to The Verge.
2 - No 3.5 mm Headphone Jack
While everyone is curious how does it feels like to stream music through wireless headsets, Apple's killing of the 3.5 mm audio jack does not appear good. AirPods are definitely not the thing to be drooled for because aside from its size that it prone to missing out, using wireless headset will take its toll on the users' health in the long run.
3 - Lower screen display resolution
iPhone 7 will definitely fall behind the bar when it comes to screen resolution since the current iPhone is sporting 750 pixels LED display and the iPhone 7 has 1080 pixels. While the "Google Nexus 2016" phones will feature a Quad HD display according to Techno Buffalo.
4 - The price is too high
It is an acceptable fact that Apple has done an excellent job in branding and marketing that they are able to introduce to the mass market the priciest smartphones in the world. Where in fact, there are android smartphones that function like iPhone that come in much lower prices and "Google Nexus 2016" are perfect examples.
5 - iOS 10 security flaws
Just recently, a report about iOS 10 security flaws regarding on the hacking of backup files has surfaced the internet. With "Google Nexus 2016" phones powered by Android 7.0 Nougat, that incident is unlikely to happen due to the newest android security features.
