What kind of granularity can you get with this? Based on all of the apps/build in features utilizing 3D Touch, I had thought it was binary.

Somewhere around 336 levels, it would seem, with this generation.

Really? Lightly touch an icon but don't press hard enough to show the shortcut menu - as you modulate your touch pressure the glow will follow. When you peek an email, adjust the pressure of your touch - you will see it zoom in and out.

Within a few minutes of playing with the feature it was obvious that it was very high resolution detection of pressures.
