It's probably fast and the camera looks good but overall underwhelming update IMO.

I'd wait for reviews and pick between iPhone 7 Plus and Note 7 (when they start selling it again).

Just curious, and shaft too, what would have made you think this was a good update? I'm not an iPhone fanboi, but honestly, the phone has made some decent improvements. What's so meh?

Also, isn't it funny how Geoff is only interested in making comments about phones? Strong life :olo:

I'm not a camera nerd, the new black finish will get covered by a case and while waterproofing is nice it won't change how I handle the phone 99% of the time. The speed increase is nothing special as I don't play games on my phone and the 6 plus that I have isn't exactly slow.

It's fine I guess. Just nothing to be excited about like the previous gens with the new size or fingerprint scan.

Apple found another way to apply vendor lock-in to its accessoires.

I'm just going to comment on the iPhone 7 Plus because I don't care about the smaller model.

1920x1080 for a 5.5" screen is weak. 2560x1440 on 5.7" is almost perfect, but I'd still prefer a slightly higher pixel density for real-world use.

It would also be nice if they switched to OLED and bezel-less screen like on the Note 7 or Galaxy S7 Edge.

iOS is way better than Android and the iPhone 7 Plus is a lot faster too, you notice it in day-to-day use not only in games. There's noticeable lag while opening apps and scrolling is a bit choppy on the Note 7, even when you speed up the UI and force 2D GPU acceleration.

Basically if I expected the iPhone 7 Plus to have a better screen and come with a stulys, I would've waited for it instead of buying the Note 7. I could still exchange it now because of the recall, but I'll pass.

I never liked apple. I should clarify, I like the way they look. They certainly know how to design sleek looking tech but the proprietary nature of the company just turns me off.

The worst part is that a company COULD be very stringent on their IP by not trying to fleece their customers so much but instead they do exactly the thing you wouldn't want a company to do at every step.

Lightning doesn't support analog audio so there's a DAC inside the $9 Lightning to 3.5mm adapter :down:
