I felt them all. IPhone - the best.

Before the release of the new iPhone a few more months, but for sure you already have the feeling that the iPhone 7 is somewhat outdated. Competitors have launched the market the newest flagships, but the background of which the latest topical iPhone seems cumbersome, terrible and boring.

But this is only at first glance.

I got acquainted with all the latest innovations from the Android camp and can declare with all responsibility - the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus are still the best smartphones of this year. And the reason for this is very simple.

There is nothing superfluous in them.

Judge for yourself.

Take the main competitor - Galaxy S8. Koreans were almost able to make an ideal flagship, but a muffled unlocking on the iris of the eye with an unfinished face recognition as an alternative to an uncomfortable fingerprint scanner - so-so idea.

Absolutely superfluous functionality, frankly interfering with normal use. Like the touch button with a tactile response, but without a finger scanner. Made for a tick and use it uncomfortable.

Another Korean is even more strange. The main useless feature of LG G6 was its screen, which does not carry any semantic load, except for the aesthetic. The company did not come up with any intelligible and useful function for it, except creating collages in the camera.

Samsung with the same long and narrow screen is also sluggish in terms of software, but the situation is partially saved by Edge panels and screen sharing, even if it's become a standard feature of a fresh Android.

Nothing new for the user such screens do not give. The same 3D Touch and it is much more useful and certainly more functional.

Go ahead. What is there with the Chinese?.

Xiaomi Mi 6 almost completely copies the iPhone 7 Plus, but boasts the size of a regular iPhone 7. And everything would be fine with him, if not for the double camera, completely copied from Apple, but strongly losing in implementation.

Two-time zoom works well, but conventional shots have big problems with sharpness, and portrait mode is very slow and often mistaken.

The feature for the sake of features, everything is as usual.

To refuse from 3,5 mm it too was not necessary to them. Xiaomi offered no alternative to its users. Where is the wireless analog of AirPods? And headphones with USB-C were introduced already much later than the smartphone.

Maybe the Japanese samurai are doing well? Nothing like this.

The only cool features of Xperia XZ Premium was the 4K HDR screen, most of the time showing a Full HD picture, and a camera capable of recording video at 960 fps.

Of course, you can use it to shoot beautiful slow movies, but how often will you do this? If you are not a professional who earns money on this, it is most likely never. It would be better to improve the quality of pictures, well, the truth.

In the near future on the market will be a couple of flagships, worthy of attention. I have not touched them yet, but I can already say that they are not so.

HTC U11 seems like a good phone, but the counterpart of compressible side faces for controlling the interface looks very far-fetched. And who in their right mind is buying HTC now?.

Seriously, have you ever wanted to squeeze your phone harder to call up a function? I can not even imagine such a situation.

Introduced the other day Essential Phone from the creator of Android would be an interesting alternative to the iPhone, if it were not so gikovsky. Modular accessories at the moment are obtained only from Lenovo c Motorola, and this is not a mass market.

In the rest it is an ordinary expensive Android-smartphone with an unusual design.

And the front camera inscribed in the screen certainly will not be played out by the interface of the system or by third-party applications and games.

Another thing - iPhone. There is no unnecessary nonsense in it, it does not need to be compressed to access functions, it does not need to connect additional modules, it does not have half-working ticks for a check.

This working tool.

Here there is only what you will use every day. So in the iPhone X, all the new features will also be natural, familiar and ordinary.

And he will again be the best of the best.
