iPhone 7 storage performance: 32GB vs 256GB model

A recent experiencing test has confirmed the data writing speed of iPhone 7 256GB model is up to 8 times faster than the 32GB version due to the characteristics of the memory chip. Why don’t we take a look at the detail of the experiment on iPhone 7 storage performance?

iphone 7 storage performance gsm

iPhone 7 storage performance: 32GB model is 8 times slower than 256GB model

Apple officially abandoned on iPhone 7 16GB variant, marked the 32GB version for the lowest storage. However, it seems that users are disproportionately disadvantaged when they buy this version. Through a comparative test of speed, GSMArena showed a Basemark OS results. According to the report, iPhone 7 and 7 Plus 32GB version seems to work slower than the same machine with a higher capacity, namely the iPhone 7/7 Plus 128GB and 256GB.  

Recently, a well-known Youtuber – Lew Hilsenteger from Unbox Therapy channel did a test on iPhone 7 storage performance: 32GB vs 256GB ROM model. In the videos, he used Performance Test Mobile software download from the Apple Store as the testing tool. Reading speed of both devices is very high, 32GB version can read 686MB/s while 256GB can read 856MB/s. Although the difference is about 200MB/s, but at such high speeds, users can not recognize the significant differences. On the other side, while the 32GB version reaches 42MB/s writing speed, iPhone 7 256GB ROM is 8 times faster and reached the threshold 341MB/s. Then he tested their performance on copying data from PC to iPhone, 256GB version receive a 4,2GB movie in 2 mins 34 secs, whilst the 32GB takes 3 min 40 secs.

iphone 7 storage performance tester

The reason for this significant difference in data writing speed is the result of their Flash Memory different structure. The larger capacity memory chip has, the more multiple parallel  NAND Flash is integrated. When running the copy job, the data is written simultaneously to all NAND flash range to achieve maximum speed. This means that for the same period, the high-capacity memory will burn more data than that of low storage device, which has fewer built-in NAND chips.

Predicted iPhone 7 storage performance difference

Although Apple has “blinded” their customers by saying that there was no difference between the various versions of iPhone 7, the test result is not too surprising. Larger SSD has been proved to  have better performance. Therefore, if the storage speed is an important factor to you, you will probably prefer to spend a little more money to buy a 128GB or 256GB iPhone. If you want to have more such tests about Apple phones, stay tuned!

But broken screen is one of the most common reasons for broken phones. Gorilla Glass is extraordinary, however it can just do as such much. You can save your phone by equipping it with a screen protector to prevent broken screen or covering it with a case to protect inner components. The cost of those two things are much less than what you have to pay if the phone “nakedly” falls.

Red Dead Redemption 2 will come in 2017

After teasing the whole of Internet with vague images, Rockstar has finally showed its card: Red Dead Redemption 2. The game is expected to come in 2017. Let’s see what we have so far!

Red Dead Redemption 2

Red Dead Redemption 2 will come in 2017

A few days ago, Rockstar has teased everyone with blurry images of an upcoming game. However, now the fog has cleared: we will be getting Red Dead Redemption 2 in the fall of 2017. The second installment of the massive hit Red Dead Redemption has now become real, much to the delight of fans. Rockstar has put up an official poster, noting that on Thursday, October 20 at 11 AM EST, a trailer will be released. For now, that’s all we know from the publisher.

Right after that, research firm Cowen & Company has predicted that the game could sell at least 15 million copies, and that is just being modest! In its statement, the firm said that the prediction comes from the fact that the first game was a critically acclaimed hit, and has grown in stature over the years. As of February 2012, Red Dead Redemption sold 13 million copies. Right after the announcement of Red Dead Redemption 2, Rockstar’s parent company, Take Two, saw its stock price went up by quite a lot.

Red Dead Redemption 2

For now, we don’t know much about the game. On the poster, we can see 7 people, each wielding guns, from pistol to shotgun. There are speculation that his game could be a prequel to the first game. However, Rockstar has left a message that this game will have multiplayer mode. Rockstar’s GTA V, released in 2013, has earned more than $500 million. So, we expect the mode to be good as well!

Red Dead Redemption 2: Too much excitement

For now, that’s about everything we know so far about the game. Rockstar has said that the game will be available on PS4 and Xbox One, but no words for a PC version yet. We hope that PC will be included. Now, are you excited to travel to the Wild West again?
