2# UNTOUCHED

It's not going to save your time but knowing that a person clicks, tapes, or swipes its phone almost 3000 times a day, it adds up.
3# FEELING HOME
The new home button of the iPhone 7 isn't using clicking anymore even it looks like it, the new iPhone uses haptic feedback instead (*use of the sense of touch in a user interface design to provide information to an end user). You even feel like a vibration that imitate the feel of pressing a button.
4# INSTANT PICTURES
In order to picture life in the moment, the iPhone 7 makes the access to the camera much quicker. Instead of swiping, entering your password, swiping, taping and swiping again to put your camera on, you just have to swipe right on the lock screen and the camera app is good to go. This feature doesn't mean that any of your friends would be able to access your private pictures folders without entering the password, luckily.
5# SELFILICIOUS
Sadly becoming the symbol of a generation, the selfie remains trendy. Following this passion, Apple provides its iPhone 7 with a 7MP front facing camera. The (+) is that you can use it for selfies in low light cause the iPhone 7 screen works like a flash.
6# BECOME A PHOTOGRAPHER
With a 12-megapixels, main camera and optical image stabilization (OIS), the iPhone 7's camera is the best: 60% faster performance, 50% more light, and wide color capture.
The iPhone 7 Plus has also an extra lens.
7# MEMORIES BACK TO LIFE
Live Photos, already available on the iPhone 6S, turn images into videos by capturing the frames before and after you press the button. With the iPhone 7, its editing tools and its stabilization mode, you will end up with amazing pictures.
8# MUSIC SOUNDS BETTER WITH YOU

If you don't want to buy and use Airpods (Price: $159 - 24hours battery life), there is an adaptor in your iPhone's box that enables you to connect normal headphones to the lightening port.
9# FORCE
Force Touch is a new integrated system that allows you to bring up menus and settings by pressing harder on the screen.
10# NO MORE CRAPPLE
