The fingerprint sensor built-in feature sends a sharp vibration when using the new  home button making for a smooth unlocking process.

Hello Jackless Headphones

The phone upholds the standard 4.7 inch Retina HD display with backlit IPS LCD. Unfortunately, this model does not have the brightest, most colorful iPhone display of 2K resolution yet. So you can experience a display of the standard 1134 x 750 pixels, which is quite fair for the current price of Apple iPhone 7 in UAE.
With the 2016 iPhone 7 plus and 7 models, Apple introduced the latest jackless headphones and immersive stereo speakers. In fact, these are the first ever models to boast of two speakers. But if you’re somebody who prefers wired headphones, worry not because a 3.5 mm jack has been provided.
