The Apple iPhone 7 kills the headphone jack, but that's not the only reason why there's so much buzz around it.

Despite featuring practically the same design as the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6, it adds some significant improvements in all else: the new A10 system chip is much more powerful, the new rear camera takes better pictures in low light, the front camera takes much sharper selfies, the battery life is better, the screen now has more eye-popping color, the phone is water-proof, and there is now optical stabilization that allows shooting much smoother looking video. Did we mention that the pitiful 16GB base model finally goes the way of the dodo and is being replaced by a 32GB version? For $100 on top of that you can get a 128GB version, and add another $100, and you enter mainstream laptop territory with 256GB, the most we've seen on a mainstream phone.

Add to this the rich iOS ecosystem that continues to secure the best apps and games first, and one starts to understand why it's so hard to argue against the iPhone 7.
