Still upset that you can't rate songs in Music.app anymore in iOS 10. timb, fix this poo poo now. *Trump voice* I have lots and lots and lots of smart playlists that rely on star ratings.

I never use 3D Touch. what does it do that's useful?

if you have a folder with an app with a notification you can 3d touch the folder to go straight to that app. you can 3d touch notifications on the lock screen to go to those apps. you can 3d touch the flashlight in control center for different light intensities. you can 3d touch reminders to check off something or create new reminders

but seriously no there is very little that changes. try doing a hard press on a phone that doesn't have force touch and you will find that, whoops, in pushing harder I have held my finger on the screen longer and it registered perfectly as a long press

how about that 3D layering effect they touted in ios 7 as creating the appearance of "separation" and "depth" and then they did nothing with it afterward

my college roommate had one of those

it was actually p neat...you'd roll over the edge of a window and there'd be this little *thump*, and moving the cursor over the desktop had this scratchy feel like fine sandpaper

not that useful in general but it might have been really helpful for blind people

agreed. people who can't hack 3d touch or can't tell the difference between a long press and a 3D touch are probably the same ppl who couldn't figure out right-click or double-click pre-2007. i.e.: ppl with v poor motor skills

the iPhone 7.

it's so fast that it's ridiculous. plus matte black looks nice as hell, and is blacker than the iPhone 5.

the SE didn't get updated and so it's still the iPhone 6S guts in a smaller phone, but apparently with the older, slower iPhone 6 touchID sensor.

and the camera is :kickinrad: even on the regular 7. optical image stabilization makes low light shots way better.
