iPhone 7 - What Apple Doesn't Want You To Know
Every iPhone 7 is not created equal. Yes, the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus are available in various storage capacities but what about the speed? This video aims to test the storage speed of the iPhone 7 32GB and compare it to the other iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus models (128GB and 256GB) in an effort to uncover the truth.
Will these results alter your selection of iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus? Will you now be more inclined to opt for a larger capacity iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus? Leave a comment down below!
*For clarity, this speed discrepancy appears in all 32GB models (iPhone 7 32GB and iPhone 7 Plus 32GB). Faster storage is found in the 128GB and 256GB iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus.

What if Apple paid unbox therapy to say that 32 gb iphones are slower than the bigger gb phones and do fake tests so everyone can get the 128gb or 256gb🤔
maybe you never now
3mily Well Apple pays for overly expensive propaganda and marketing in order to drive up prices so I guess there's a good possibility
3mily why would it matter I got a 16 gab iPhone 6 Plus and it's just fine with storage, 32 gb is like 128 gb to me
Deep
tru
Apple is not transparent about a LOT of things.
ani625 and Samsung ? Galaxy note 7 ?
@ZAYREZ Samsung are really transparent compared to Apple. Besides, there's a lot more companies out there than Samsung for Android.
@ZAYREZ I mean they are pretty transparent, they literally recalled every single one. (even though only .038 percent or something like that explode) after they heard there were exploding problems they didn't hesitate to warn people.
ZAYREZ What's the point of even bringing up Samsung. this guy never even mentioned Samsung. for all you know he has an iPhone too
jfitz492 iphones have been blowing up too.. battery manufactures are screwing up lately.
I bought 32GB model, just didn't have enough money to pay more for extra speed. I'm satisfied with performance.
Himanshu Gupta well some android guy dont want apple phone and some apple guy don't want android phone, ITS THEIR OWN PRESPECTIVE TO CHOOSE WHAT THEY FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE TO USED
@King Carter Well said ☝☝
Himanshu Gupta You do realize that it's their choice right?
My Android is 8 core, 126 gb.
i have iphone 8 256 gb model i also am ok with mine
Watching this on my 32gb iphone 7 ;_;
☁️🥞 Yeahh me too

I love Unbox Therapy videos, but this one is misinformed. The iPhone 7 and 7 plus use SSD storage. Higher capacity SSDs have more chips. The more chips, the more parallelism. The more parallelism, the faster the SSD can transfer data thus leading to faster write speeds on the higher capacities. This comment is not meant to insult either Lew or the people in this thread that disagreed, I just want to clear this up. Is it possible that Apple could have used a lower quality chip for the lower storage devices? Absolutely. Is it likely? No. And even if that was the case, it would affect write speeds, not read speeds therefore, the general performance of the phone would not be degraded. If you want more information other than just my word here's a link with overwhelming statistics and charts: www.tomshardware.com/forum/265761-32-drive-capacity-performance Disregard the first response as they are corrected further down
well said, that is what I was thinking
While true, it's not always the case that a higher capacity SSD will result in faster speeds. A 32GB card might have a single ship or it might have 4 8gb chips thus resulting in theoretically higher speeds for the second one. Similarly, a 256GB card might have 4 64GB chips inside or 32 8gb chips... Similarly you may have a poor quality controller/multiplexer (whatever it's called that tells the device exactly where on the SSD to place bits of info) on one creating a bottleneck and a high quality one on the other that doesn't. Lot's of things can contribute to high/low speeds.
good point, just like the smaller SSDs like 128GB or lower has been slower in write speed department compare to higher capacity model.
That's right. Same thing applies to Macbooks line that use SSD as well.
+American fries Technically, they are. This is normal and it's no big conspiracy. Any device using an SSD is this way.

You’ll Cowards Don’t Even Smoke Crack ancient? Haha, how old are you mate?
xxx_ChuckNorris_xx 18, and the iPhone 7 is OLD AF, if ur using that phone right now, ur broke af
Well apple didnt want you to know and your watching on an apple product 😂😂
Watching it on my iPhone 7 😎 Finally I could afford one 😌
7rs7 congratulations bro!
Just got mine today 🤘
But their only around $140 for abused one, barely able to tell the difference
Lil ChiiZii You can always tell a difference between abused and brand new phone.
@@BlitzHopB Lol
What's new , its just Apple being Apple.
Stfu, it's just how SSDs work. The lower the memory cells, the slower it is. Idiots being idiots...
Aww, Im sorry for hurting your feelings :( . Go eat more grass iSheep.
Jason Lin don't worry lmao probably has a cheap android
Said the guy whose currently rocking a 5. Im with the i7, and im not happy with it tbh.
McLain Del Mar lol you don't shit about how ssds work
who goes to a apple store thinking they're going to see cheap things?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Desland brown I don't know what the hell you're talking about, but no. No one thinks Apple is cheap standing from a price point
Desland Brown are you stupid?
apple is for fat nerdy ignorant ppl who would willingly blind themselves for a craze shitty phone
people who like android xD
I could totally bear some slow minutes for couple hundreds 😂😂
That's fine Apple being dishonest is not fine.
So true
The data transfer is slower on a 32gb iPhone, but your phone has the same speed as a 256gb when reading the data on the phone. Don't sweat it!
But there is a 200mbps difference.How will that affect me?
It won't.
30 seconds of your life, just gonna save your couple of bucks lol
This is my theory: When Apple advertises their cheapest capacity model, they want everyone to see how much does it cost to get yourself into the iphone experience. And Apple knew that the people who bought the 32gb iphones were probably poor or uneducated. They used this to their advantage and made the lower capacity iphones with shittier componets just because people wouldn’t notice! And it sucks that they let us think that we are getting the most powerful phone when we just get fucked over...
Daaaaaame apple! back at it again with the ripoffs! Android is better
The Trammell git blekbery nub
The Trammell yes they are

see the thing is android is an operating system not attached to any brand specifically, so the note 7's explosions have literally 0 to do with android. It's like blaming a dell computer exploding on windows.
iPhone 7 users getting salty here in the comments LOL
honey, the current state of solid state flash media affects all phones, not just iPhones, the fact that he left out that the same phenomenon happens on every android phone in existence as well, doesn't make you less dumb.
EliteGamerShow Reemed👎🏾😑
+aeonjoey cry
The current flash media does affect all phones and ssds ect. However it is usually only a marginal difference. 10X speed difference is not normal by a long shot.
Im very salty now
Why are you YELLING?!? Chill dude... It's Apple. They're always working on new and exciting ways to rip people off.
Lol
Noice!
I don’t understand how giving more power to the iPhone people may more for is a rip off.
@@nolimitsluke people are loosing money because iPhone is making them cost a lot of money
@It's Jocelyn if you choose to buy an iPhone you are not loosing money you are SPENDING money.
I think its ignorant they even have a 32GB model but skip over 64GB to 128GB.
Jordan Noel facts
Jordan Noel they do that to make you want to pay the extra cash to upgrade the storage. It’s called a bait and switch tactic.
Jordan Noel I think it's totally ignorant that you can't put a SD card or trade out the batteries for iPhones that's his completely stupid
I think it's cause they wanted to make a 256gb model it would make them more ignorant to go 32gb/64/256tbh hahah
The lower the capacity, the lower the speed. That's kinda how SSD storage works.
Hannah Irvin stop fanboying apple
It's not fucking fanboying Apple, it's a fact. It's the same thing in Android phones or anything with storage.
Dayneys if there is a larger ssd theres gonna be a better, faster phone its pretty simple. dont argue things yiu dont know about
Hannah Irvin that's not how it works. Nice assumption though :)
Firstname Lastname SSDs and HDDs aren't the same thing.
The iPhone 7 suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks

Stefan fuck u it can get hacked easily
+UltimateGamer 87 No it cant
Everything can get hacked, nothing is unhackable. Remember the iCloud hack? Everyone thought that was safe too. Oh and by the way, did I mention that most of the Android smartphones recieve monthly security patches to keep it safe against the latest hack tools?

Haha... my iPhone 6S doesn't crash since I bought it from the store.... shame on you Android fans and all promoters of Android.
Ricardo Reis one plus 3 desnt even crash what are you talking about foh
Ricardo Reis I bought it online and it's cured cancer so GOML kid
Android phones don't crash though.

Thanks, this vid was helpful. Also, your glasses are really cool. Haha, just thought I'd let you know :)
This comment will get a high amount of likes for no reason.
fuck off
Taylor K yes
Taylor K no
No mine will mwahahahaha
no
Why would Apple not want you to know that? That could be an extra incentive to go for the more expensive model.
it is the same process on flash memories. Lesser the storage lesser write speed.
If that were the case they would advertise the fact. They don't.
that and he commented that the 32 GB pixel it getting over 200MB/s so it isnt the 32gb storage.
ToeCutter "Our 32 gb model is slow. Buy better one"
Because their whole sales model is being user friendly based they don't want to be seen as forcing anyone to a decision in any way, even if it is a technical one they are making for their own advantage... Just like damn Lefties in politics IRL.. 32K /Year same as 256K/Year .. ya everyone is equally as useful.. hahaha
Thank you for your knowledge and demonstration
Great video bro👍
That's why I would never buy an Apple product.
Ferenc Meszaros I guess you can predict the future how did you know the 7 would have something like this?
Chris Jean-Felix it is very easy when it comes to Apple. Sorry you can't see it.
Ferenc Meszaros so let me get this straight you knew this exact problem would happen before the 7 was even announced? Good lord...
No I knew something like this would happen because it is a petern.
Ferenc Meszaros this doesn't just happen on Apple products. It's the same with Windows pcs.
It is well known that higher capacities solid state storage tend to be faster than lower ones, and this doesn't apply to iPhones only, but virtually any phone model and even SSDs. This is due to the higher capacity having more NAND dies for parallel performance. For example, assume 2 phones use the same NAND dies (32Gb as 1 unit), the 256Gb will have theoretically 8x the write performance (256/32=8) for having 8 units in total. (This is just a oversimplified scenario, in reality there are space constraints in phones, thus increasing costs to use higher density and higher performance NAND, hence the ridiculous pricing while stepping up in storage)
This is exactly what I thinking while watching the video. The majority of the comments are from Android fanboys feeling vindicated since this video was kind of inflammatorily focused on iPhones, but it rings true for all smart phones and SSD's in general.
This makes more sense to me. Cos each memory unit will be a 32 gig chip. Writing to multiple will obviously be faster. The hardware is the same, the higher memory capacity just has more parallelism
Thank god, someone who actually knows what they're talking about.
"BUT THE RIGHT SPEED HOLY SMOKES" 😂😂😂
thanks for the review!!!
I pity the people working at the store after this video. They probably don't even know either.
timmy yong of course they don't
timmy yong I watched a documentary about people that work at Apple stores and they interviewed them and they were totally brainwashed. They said that people cried when Steve Jobs died they all think apple like rules the tech world. They said if they see somebody with a samsung they are shunned and looked down upon. It was crazy. They got like 25% apple watches though. haha
Well no shit, would you start shit talking the company you work for? What the hell could be dumber than committing job suicide?
Used to work at an Apple Store. None of that is true, and employees of Apple stores find out everything the day that everyone else does. We were never told anything ahead of a product announcement. When a new product is released we saw it and held it for the first time about 20min prior to opening the store. Lowest people on the totem pole are told nothing. I knew people who had other phones and no one cared. Yes people who work for apple end up loving the company but no one is brainwashed. Things like this makes an Apple employees life miserable. What makes it worse is asshats who walk in the store and are a smart ass about it and act as if it's some giant conspiracy. In that company everything is on a need to know basis, and people in retail stores are not told much
They also don't want us to know that IPhone 7 is sh...
Mattpolay it
ugh stfu butthurt little shit
Mattpolay
Mattpolay sooo true
Mattpolay Shitting on every other phone
thanks a lot man. a very nice information
This is some good information right here.. really awesome
this isnt the fault of apple, it's actually the exact same flash chips. due to how NAND flash storage works, when there are less chips to write to it can't write in parallel. this is nothing new
Exactly. Unfortunately almost no one is going to see your comment, and even fewer people will believe you. Haters gonna hate as they say... but thanks for trying!
Does it change the fact that the iPhone 32gb is significantly slower than the 128/256gb version?
Uta Hiro no but this isnt a surprise and everyone shouldn't be getting their panties in a twist over it
But in the first comment he says that a 32 GB pixel writes at 300 MB/s and the iPhone 7 writes at 42 MB/s
Jose Gil . *32 GB pixel writes at 300 MB/s and the iPhone 7 writes at 42 MB/s* Hm. I guess Apple did go cheap on their storage there.
I've known this for years. Higher storage models are ALWAYS FASTER For example my iPhone 5 64gb was faster than my brothers iPhone 5s 16gb
That's not necessarily true. But before I bash a bunch of nerdy nonsense into the reply box, I just need to know which of the two theories you are implying: 1) Higher storage capacity = higher speed 2) Higher storage capacity iPhone = higher speed
i tot linus tech tip mention that bigger storage ssd have higher writing speed... right? isnt it the same as smartphone storage?
Dezz9820 yeah not true my gs7 32gb gets 100 write...
doge shibe Capacity doesn't equal read/write speed. Simple.

Valuable post lew!!!
wow dude, you help me very much... i know what is the best storage to buy... Thanks bro
The difference in performance between the 32GB and larger capacity models is no surprise in a technical sense. All NAND based SSD's have the same issue. Larger capacity (to a point) means more NAND chips connected to the controller in parallel which means faster read and write speeds.
That's going to be the new "iphone 6 plus bending test" million views video
Appreciate that, made me rethink the size now if I do go for the 7

i don't think apple doesn't want people to know this, is quite the oposite, is just another step further to force people to buy the more expensive model. its just a logical move from apple.
seriously? is not their move? like removing features for you to buy their solutions for problems they created? it sounds apple-like to me. besides is what i think and your comment doesn't change my opinion.
@buddha puff Just the regular dumb apple fan xD Let him be XD
1min difference? 1st world problems
ross Eldrin taupa trust me you notice this
Were sooo spoiled, aren’t we?!🙄
Its more noticeable with bigger files
ross Eldrin taupa false advertising which is illegal, apple has a history of this yet the differences he just mentioned are no where ok the box or website, i’ve gone as far has doing a tear down of the phones and visually verify not the same processor is being used.
@@paulauten1945 it's not illegal
This channel right here, is the real deal. Thank you sir
If you were the type of person who transferred media and such, wouldn't you just get the higher capacity iPhone to begin with?
.
it's not about that, it's about that they "cheated", why did they include a 4K video recording on the 6S 16gb model?? because they can't cheat on people, the phone should behave the same
ahah here we go again the Apple customer trying to convince himself that all is good and that Apple can do anyhting to them and it will always be the customer who's complaining not them doing a shitty job.
They didn't "cheat". A lower capacity SSD is slower than a higher capacity one...it's like this with everything that has a SSD.
Rat Face Or a fucking android phone? Being limited to the closed environment of iOS sucks for all that media stuff.
Well Samnsung Blew it, now apple is taking a bite of of the performance.....

Love my iPhone 7. After switching from android I'm never going back.
Androids are VERY Fragile in my opinion.I just purchased a New iPhone 7 Today to replace my iPhone SE which needed a New battery so I upgraded a little bit.I loved the SE but for what replacing the battery would have been I opted for the New phone.I got the 32GB & I don't play games on my phone or anywhere else so I am not looking for massive speed.
Same on Thursday I'm switching from Android to I phone 7...aaayy
Android phones have better batteries plus iPhone is easy to smash
Lol same I bought a used one and I had a s8 before
I switch from Samsung J3 to iPhone XR
Thanks my friend Lewis I have seen this video probably as all the others at list 2 or 3 times each, I have an iPhone 7plus 122gb yes that's is another thing they don't say, ok is only 6gb short but why don't say so. But my point actually was I thought that my 122 " 128 "GB was as fast as the 256 and is not, is the same as the 32 so I'll be on the phone to apple tomorrow. And as usual having a bloody argument as usual with all the big companies that want shaft us left right and center, like you said we need mo transparency from the company's we buy from. I like your show because no matter what you say what you thinking about the product. I have been following you for long time and I like to congrat. On your new studio/ superstore. Good luck Dom
My 128GB get average about 282MByte/Sec write and 833 MByte/Sec Read out of 20 tests.
Anyone seeing how racists and greedy Apple is?
Yeah. Dam apple with their racist storage...
JobbittheSmall This offends me.
Super Woman anyone seen how horny you are towards superman
I tried it with my 128 and it wouldn't give me a number. Did this happen to you?
That's a serious thing that you just revealed man. Awesome Just keep on cracking the stuffs like this
It's actually how flash storage work, the smaller the capacity, the slower it is.
Wings Wrong, smaller capacity flash storage will always have worse write speeds, that's just the way it works
Anuj Chhetri okay you are wrong If you get more storage on your phone it Will get faste beacause of how fast it is loading data
Qudos to Lew for being honest and telling us the performance difference in both iPhones
Awesome Video, I notice the cord you where using. I am looking for a excellent cord to charge my iphone , could you recommend one or the one you are using in the video ?
Whatever 32 gbs or 128 gbs it is? Still there is no headphone jack...
the phone comes with an adapter so
Techy Halnerd lmaooo
glassman5555 ikr...I don't need a phone without a headphone jack
Not having a headphone jack is not bad at all... It's better than having a phone that is prone to detonating in your pocket...
Kiara Renee` then don't buy it and stop crying about it.
To be fair, larger SSDs are always faster than smaller ones.
hmm.. :-D 10x??? If you switch between ssd and m.2 3rd gen pci express.. Yes you can get more speed but only 5-7x" they really did this unprofessional! I'm so disappointed!
Thank U! I am a little bit surprised here, that is common knowledge! Larger capacity has better performance in SSDs/Phone storage etc..
You heard it here folks. Size does matter.
That's what she said
Interesting. Tell us how the same size 32gb model of the google pixel is getting the higher 300+ write speed then?
The Read Speed only matters. In booting OS, Opening Apps, Playing games. Acessing/Copying files Write Speed is not necessary for the Iphone 7/plus as long as you have sufficient speed. It is only for copying file, Installing apps, Download with high speed internet.
Alcino Dias So the iphone 7 with 32gb is, if you use it for surfing or multitasking, just as fast as the version with 256gb?
Hey! Thanks for the useful video. Could you please tell me where you found that mac skin without cutout? I looked on Amazon and found only ones with cutout. Thanks in advance! :D
Thanks for clarifilying! that's what i alway suspect in my mind! Cz more storage needs more processor power I believed!
It's propably not different memory modules it's just fewer of them, that means that the phone can write to fewer memory modules simultaneously therefore it's slower...
Kai B. That's exactly what it is.
Jaidyn Belbin Clickbait detected :D
I think the word you are looking for is "fewer" and not "less". Fewer memory modules.

Ok, I'm going to talk basic NAND FLASH STORAGE: The bigger the size the better performance you'll get. comparing 256GB flash storage to a 32GB is ridiculous, I will set my point: 1- You can't test a 2016 Flash storage chips with a 2012 application that it's last update was 4 years ago (old benchmarks, not updated to the latest standards). 2- The write/read speed (performance) of the storage depends on the available blocks, the bigger the capacity the much more blocks you get so the better performance you'll get. 3- Solid state drives or flash drives should never reach their maximum storage because if they do the blocks becomes filled and the performance will decrease that's why you shouldn't fill more than 75-80% of your storage to keep your performance. And looking on 10ish GB available on the 32GB and 238GB you can see with no brainer who got more blocks to store in. I don't think comparing a two cars with different horse powers will get the same performance specially if you compare them with old performance test application!! but who cares, 2.5 million views in 2 days and letting the people smash each others in the comments... way to go buddy 👍🏼
He's not lying though. Do you seriously expect the average American to know this??
average LoL
The point is, the bigger storage is faster and that's what he's telling us all. The reason why it's faster is not the topic of this video
StayFoolish Network Is the Iphone 7 with 32gb, if you use ist for surfing or multitasking, just as fast as the 256gb version? Sorry for my english..I'm from Germany
StayFoolish Network the fact that you mentioned about not filling entire capacity isn't actually true. Flash memory ALREADY has overprovisioning built in. Rest of your points are right on money though
what about the 128GB models? are we in the middle? or on the 256 side?
Mikka 260 mb write 1040 mb read Model 128 gb
yeah but we've all known this since forever, this principle has always been true for the SSD's you put in your PC/laptop. It is interesting to see the difference is quite so big, though.
You guys don't understand how SSDs work at all. This same topic was posted on Reddit 2 weeks ago we people had a serious conversation about it. THIS IS JUST HOW SSDS WORK. Go on Corsair's website and look at their SSDs. You can see that their sequential write speeds are significantly lower with the lower capacity drives. Apple isn't a scummy company. They wouldn't do something like this on purpose. That'd be the dumbest business decision ever. You guys have to do research.
Not entirely true with SSD's at all. Manufacturers always have and will make lower capacity drives slower than higher end alternatives to help influence people to buy the higher end (more profitable) model. That basic business right there. Apple removed the jack to make it waterproof. That's what you're told to think. Samsung managed to make their jack waterproof. Apple didn't want to 'waste' money on R&D to do that just yet. And instead they make more money without the jack on the phone. Any company who makes peripherals with a lightning port pay Apple to make that product. No one can say for sure how much it really is as Apple being Apple make you sign a non disclosure agreement. But it's suspected to be around $50,000 per product. That means if a company makes a 3m Lightning cable in 5 different colours. That's 5 different products, easy (suspected) $250,000 for Apple for literally doing nothing. Stop thinking Apple is the 'good' guy out there looking out for the consumer when they're not... So please, do your research
Callum Perkins it's not that they make the lower capacity drive slower, it's that higher capacity drives have more transistors inside, hence more channels for read/write, hence more parallel read/write, hence faster.
Unbox therapy also doesnt know how SSDs work, how does he even review tech products with such little knowledge.
This is not really true for new 3D nand technology and the way the controllers work. If it were true then the 512GB PCIe ssd should theoretically be twice as fast as the 256. They're pretty much the same speed.
cool but boring 😎🤗
42 MB/s?? that's slower than MY F*CKING 5400RPM HARD DRIVE. How's that speed even possible on an SSD. EVEN ON A CHEAP ONE.
Low end processor.
Actually you are wrong, 1.34Gbps is not 1.3 GB per second, 8 bits = 1 byte, 1340 Mbps = 162.5 MB/s. 300Mbps is just the limit of the current Wifi technology. nothing wrong about your phone. Have a nice day.
best doesn't mean very good even for it's form factor
Wifi speed to low? Seriously, that's got nothing to to with it, since this was just a disk benchmark. That's an app on the Iphone that writes a file to the SSD and then measures the time it takes. After that the app can calculate the speed. (e.g 84 MB file took 2 sec, that means 42 MB/s) That doesn't require an internet connection.
This isn't a Commodore 64. Read and writes are done by the kernel making it contained to the limits in the processor.
Well, I bought 256 for size purposes (I take loads of video). But good point on the speed. Something to consider.
I like you 👍🏼👍🏼 good @ what you do & good personality - thank you for this video :)
Apple will say, it's not 32GB is slower. It's 128GB version is faster.
What unbox therapy doesn't want you to know: we fake our giveaways
Adrian Rutledge lol
Genius
Adrian Rutledge damn 😂
They didn't fake it. He's still giving away the stuff. Just had some issues doing it
Matthew S lmao I’m dead when he said our fake giveaways
Interesting 🤔 Another thing: What is the case you use in the iPhone Plus with the timer? 😋 I love it!
2020 and I’m watching this on my matt black iPhone 7 Plus 32gb. She’s a good girl, battery life is letting her down now, but I haven’t ever had a problem with the speed.
Am I the only one watching in iPhone 7 32 gig...
Roy Hamilton nah watching on an iPhone 7+
Roy Hamilton yes
Roy Hamilton s6 edge+😉
Nope I am too but these earbuds are crap they broke on the first day
Samantha Lucas no
Is not an Apple thing. Solid State Disks suffer from this, Samsung loves to do it.
Paco Inurreta show me one SSD that when increased in capacity gain 4-5 times the performance...this speed difference is way too big
Gurvinder Parmar Not 4-5 times but my own SSD. I have an ADATA that is 128GB and its 256 version has better speeds. x2 Samsung does the same thing. The controller makes a huge improvement too.
Gurvinder Parmar Someone posted this in another comment. www.tomshardware.com/forum/265761-32-drive-capacity-performance And it is well known for SSD users that higher capacity does have better performance.
+Paco Inurreta Speed and capacity are completely unrelated.
Paco Inurreta there's definitely a difference but today that difference is much much less...earlier the difference was more...but there's no way in hell the difference in write speeds should be this wide
Dear Unbox therapy! i am using one of the Iphone 7 but i agree with the point you gave but let me tell you the other side of the story! Say the 256GB model is almost full so the TIME taken by the device to read the whole data would be much larger if they use the same system that is being used in the 32GB model! The 32GB model dosent require that much read speed for just 32GB model but if the 256GB model wants to read all the data in the phone then they have to clock up the speed in order to lower the read time! Your point is also right they should tell this but its still understandable to me!
thanks sir for this video
Wow Apple done fucked me over.
They always do...lol
Samsung....apple sux
This is normal. Lower capacity SSD's are slower than a one with higher capacity. It's like this with everything that has a SSD, phones, computers etc.... It's not just Apples products.
Who else is watching on a iPhone 7? 👇🏻 edit: HOLY MOLY... THAT MANY LIKES? Thank u guys so much I love you all
Abdul Samad 7 plus :)
Me
Nah I'm watching on a iphone 69
7 plus
7 plus 🤙
Hello. One simple question.Do you know taht This difference in the capacity modify the performance in the others activities? For example: navigate a web, take a photo, send a email, and the other doubt is, the same phone but one with 32 and the other with 256. Will show the difference points in the antutu or other perfomance application?
I don't think speed or performance is too crucial to a smartphone as of right now. Sure, the phone has to run at a tolerable speed, but until they're used for bigger and greater things, I don't think that the average person cares about a slower phone, unless it's extremely noticeable.
sorry you got the 32 gb man! lol
+Ivan 3x0duS lol 😂😂😂😂
So much people are saying that iPhone 7 sucks and Android is the best, but little did they know that this is how SSD storage works: the *lower capacity* you have, the *lower speed* you will get.
Vasya Pupkin yes, but not 10x slower. it's way too much to be just that.
Vasya Pupkin lol iPhone does suck compared to android phones.. not in just speed... basically everything...
Vasya Pupkin little did you know, android isn't a company.
Benchmark can show 100x times the difference, but it still doesn't change the fact that it was only around 30% slower in RL.
Thank you. Your video is what made me decide to get the 128 GB iPhone and not the 32 GB. Today, I was teaching someone about the use of her iPhone (which is the 32 GB model), and I saw how significantly faster my phone was than hers.
Great research
I would have never known !!!! Thanks Jack.
WRITEGATE!!!!!!!
Nicholas Shelton Here we go... 😂
Aaand they did it again hahaha
HeadPhoneGate!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow I'm gonna subscribe this was an awesome video. Please keep videos like this coming !!! I have an iPhone 6s 16 gigs. I'm getting rid of this soon as Samsung makes the galaxy s8
assuming this happens for the later models as well ?
