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.

Just remember to get a dongle for your headphones

yeah the low light on the camera is ridiculous, compared to my friends iphone 6s you can take pictures in almost total darkness and they still come out fine. idk how that tiny lens collects the light but it does.

everything is so dang fast on the phone too, everything loads instantly.

a+ phone tim, thanks.

yeman, I loved my W810i in 2005 too but times change. the camera was really good with a moving electromechanical lens and a LED flashlight (gr8 for plugging in cables lol)



it had a headphone dongle too

optical image stabilization. means you can have longer exposure times in low light, which means the gain doesn't have to be bumped up as much, which means less noise.

the 6s+ has optical image stabilization. they might have taken advantage of the dual sensors to do some noise removal. you wouldn't be able to do the whole image because the two cameras have different focal length, but you can really really help with low light with two sensors because it makes it super easy to tell what is random noise and what is actually part of the image when the random parts are the only thing different between the two images.

oh you are talking about the 7 and the 6s non plus tiny phones, yeah that's probably just optical image stabilization.
