Also, the screen comparison. People say the samsung has more pixels and what not but some also prefer the apple screen in that it's "crispier" (colour gamut or something?). So, how true is this? thankies
And finally (sorry for the long windedness), which phone/phones is/are more worth it? And which would you se as your daily driver/everyday-use phone? thanks :)
The thumbs up is for you, Erica. Your assessment of the phone is fair, impartial, and educational. Keep up the good work. I own a Samsung Galaxy S6 and feel the iPhone does not meet my wants. They are Android's strengths: moving icons within a thumbs reach, app drawers (hidden) for clean look, and an IR blaster like the V20 (reason I won't buy an S7 or N7). Thank you 😄
+Aden J Purcell a wide gamut photo on an sRGB display will actually be opposite. It will look washed out because the mapping will be wrong. The saturations will extend farther than the display can produce so it will only show saturations up to a certain point. I think though that it depends on how Apple tags the images. It's hard to say until I try it. If it has been done intelligently then the images should look fine
The Note 7 still looks more pleasing, it does better in low light. There's already a few comparison videos out there. The gap has gotten closer so props to apple, but Samsung just knows how to make a good camera.
I loved the comments you made on the colors of the display and how if it isn't made for the display it won't look right. I can never get anyone to understand that!
For me S7 Edge is the best Camera phone now , because it's focus extremely fast then any other phone . But for video recording I still prefer iPhone 7 Plus , btw dual camera not just deliver good quality when zoom in , it's also make the phone more Badass lol
Remember the time when everybody keeps complaining that the camera bump of the iPhone 6 bugs them and might destroy its camera? Well now the bump is is even bigger...😓
Nice quick review. You are one of the few who actually takes time talking about the colurs (gamma and stuff) :) Apple sure are rushing out all those models now. Not sooner you got the 6s you get the 7. And by time you get the 7s, 8 is just around the corner. All im hoping is that the previous models (mainly 6+s) will fall in price. It is still stupid expensive. Oh, and have fun trying to polish off scratches and fingerprints on a glossey black surface :P
thanks for the review, its better than others ive seen so far. Seems like other reviewers are obsessed with scratching the jet black and nobody has talked about the stereo speakers other than this review
Back in 2011, I switched from the Iphone to the Infuse 4G. I love the expandable memory, the Super AMOLED Display, and the bigger screens. Especially after I went to the Note 2. I'm never going back to the Iphone. However, I really like how Apple made a 5.5", 1920×1080p, Full HD Display. I played around with the 6 Plus, and the 6S Plus. I really like them a lot. I think the Iphone 7 Plus is an interesting upgrade. The missing headphone jack would probably be the feature that would bother me the most. However, I have a Blue Tooth Head Set. I only keep a wired headphone set as a backup. Cool video, Erica! Thanks for posting
Hi Erica, unboxing. Normally I hate unboxing videos. This didn't feel like one. I have the 6s and I updated to the 7 solely for more storage. All the other improvements are just gravy to me. I'll be looking forward to your full review.
Every time I skip a little and your holding both the 6s plus and the 7 plus facing forward, I can never tell which one is the new one. They look Exactly the same until you turn them around. I think I'll skip this upgrade from my 6 S Plus and get the Note 7...when the replacements come in.
As you are underwhelmed by the 7plus, your review is underwhelming. 1. The camera lenses are wide-angle and telephoto; not regular and telephoto. 2. Wider color aids in 4k viewing, not meant to be super-surfer of youtube. 3. HIGHLY WATER-RESISTANT. 4. 256Gb of resident storage. 5. 3Gb of RAM. These last 4 points alone are such an advance most users who use video recording/4K or itunes storage will love it. For the first time you can have your phone in the same room you shower without fear of oxidizing your motherboard....i.e. take a phone call while soaked....Lastly this is a phone you could keep for years and have all you'll need. If you are truly bothered by the update software for the camera and feel the engineers have rushed it why did you buy two iphone 7's; don't bother to update btw, if you aren't lying to us...lol.
I really am happy that you enjoy this iPhone as much as I do, but she did say it wasn't a full review. It's just an unboxing and she will post the full review later.
for me, its not and a big waste of money... its better to change a phone yearly rather than changing everytime a phone brand of your preference releases a new model, and no i didnt mean that the iphone 7 is not worth it, it actually is worth it because of everything new the only thing that ruined it is no jack. But if your rich, go ahead(its not my waste anyway), the iphone 7 is a good phone and all but without a jack.
i mean, im not rich, i changed from a huawei mate s to a samsung galaxy s7 edge i had the huawei mate s for about 7 months and it still works, just the screen is a bit scratched from the sand from the beach.
+ForceArtz - мσтıσп ɔεƨıɢп we are actually pretty much alike in the scenario but for me it was like 2 years ago.. I changed from a local brand smartphone(cherry mobile w900) to a galaxy note 4.. but srsly I can't afford many things because I'm a kid and I just save and save money until I have enough money to buy my own. I can pretty much buy a s7edge/Note7 now but I'm not allowed to.. parents said need verification meaning I need to get good grades 1st before they approve
***** oh yeah I've seen the new V20 LG hit a home run with that device, then again the V10 was also a very good/uniquely designed device. Another good design is Xperia XZ imo
Thank you. Your details about design make me feel like the Iphone 7 plus gold. Just this color. I am using Iphone 6s, but what you introduce, I can see: camera, it is a bit difficult, I think it is cute, sound is stereo, taptic engine, bright, battery,...enough I can buy it, and absolutely the old Iphone is my wife.
Watching on my 6s Plus waiting for the 8. time come. Almost got the 7 plus but thankfully they were back ordered of course so I passed. Glad I did because besides the camera and like 0.03 seconds faster, it's like the same as the 6s Plus.
A protective case, on the phone, would help the finger, find the Home button, on the iPhone 7, like my Otterbox case. Otherwise, in the dark, it would be tricky, without a case. With the Otterbox case on the phone, the iPhone 7's button is the better one. I wished, there were a Back button, and a Menu button next to the Home Button though. Would make use of that huge bezel, at the bottom.
Doble speakers And One Of them is fake. the tear down video shows there is an empty space where the jackphone was. & the camera comparison GALAXY S7 Has The best camera. also Iphone 7 fail the Glass & back scratch Test
Sorry to say this, but you're wrong. There isn't empty space where the headphone jack was. There is necessary hardware there for the new home button, as well as a microphone and if I'm not mistake, also hardware for the motherboard and lighting connector.
Honestly, I'm fine with my 6s Plus. I'm not in a business where my phone has to take pictures 'a little' better in the dark, or have 'a little' better performance, or have 'a little' bit of a new design. I wonder what will be upgraded in the 7s.
Hey! Can you test the hardness of materials used in home button, camera lens and LED flash as well as the screen itself. I've heard rumors that Apple doesn't use Sapphire Glass in any of these which sounds scary to me... Plus could you open the differences between A1660, A1661, A1778, A1784, A1779, A1785 -models and which one to buy if I live in a GSM-only country but travel a lot in CDMA-only countries. (My presuppose is that A1661 is the best.) Can you also give an example of how much a regular photo (or Live Photo) on an iPhone 7 Plus takes space and how much stuff you can fit into each model (32, 128, 256GB). In reality by how much battery life expands if you compare it to the 6S Plus? A review on Apple Silicone / Leather case would be really useful also. These are just what were first on my mind... Thank you!
@mr nobody to be honest the last few generations of flagships, no matter from wich manufactur, are all so fast that i didn't even notice a performance difference anymore when switch to a new generation flagship. so im never really impressed with new and faster chips anymore as i know in real life use there will be barley any difference. smartphones came to the point where they just overkill it with there specs.
No it's faster that every smart phone in existence and is almost as fast as the Mac book Pro. It depends on what you are up grading from I have it and to me it is worth if
If you are talking performance , there is no phone that same as iPhone . Especially when come in game performance , if u have watch a lot comparison video then I guess you know that iPhone open game is fastest , I'm iPhone user the reason I get iPhone is because for Gaming , Oneplus 3 gaming is not as smooth as iPhone that the truth . One plus 3 just have fastest animation and 6GB ram
Francis Kigutaq-Sauvé élève oh no it doesn't. The iPhone 7 and 7 plus' processor is way more powerful than the one plus 3. Look at the benchmarks if you don't believe. Android users gotta come clean...
Short answer. Mechanical buttons break. Long answer. China. My understanding is China has a real hangup with mechanical buttons and them breaking. And they go out of their way to use things like Assistive Touch to avoid using the home button. And Apple really really wants to sell more phones in China.
It would of been a huge leap if apple put a home button in the software digitally rather then making a non physical home button with a taptic feed back engine with a emulated click.
I can't wait for your screen measurements. The iPhone already has a 99% sRGB coverage and stunning color accuracy, what did they do to make it better exactly? It just sounds like they oversaturated the entire thing.
Yea Note 7 even with the issues is better than this crap. my wife got the 7. she came from an iPhone 6. even coming from a 6, this was a non sense upgrade. ios10 brought enough features for the average consumer.
Hi Erica, I discovered something BIG on this iPhone 7 Plus Have you tried to cover the left lens (the one close to the flashlight)and see it's only one camera that dose the job of zooming 2x the other camera doesn't do anything at all! Wow wow wow try it and please do a technical review.
Well if prices make a phone better, iPhone is shit compared to that Porsche Android phone. And Note phones are not cheap. Please, if you are going to bash other phones, then don't talk out of your ass and make yourself look like an iSheep.
I love your explanation and I love to listen to you l learn from you a lot you make me remember my chemistry teacher at high school the students will like if you start to teach . thanks a lot
I like the antenna lines as the were like racing stripes but it doesn't matter since lots of people use a case. With a case on it looks like a 6 series phone.
I'd like to see the same waterproof test done to the iPhone 7 Plus, that you did with the SGS7. As I am curious to see how water resistant the iPhone 7 Plus really is.
Hi, Erica, you got any suggestion for me whether go get the new iPhone 7 plus or go with galaxy note 7 or whether i should wait for the new nexus.. I've been wanting to upgrade my phone which is oneplus 2 it's fairly new but i don't like it as much... btwlove your vids and keep up the good work
Great review- I too play around w android- almost got The note 7- but waited & I love what I have no need to upgrade unless I do the jet black lol same as u said! Love the appearance of that camera- and I'm enjoying iOS 10 on the 6s Plus so sorta feels kinda new lol have fun! I might just hold off to the 8 ❤️
I don't mind bezels. I don't want to have to hold the phone with my fingertips just to avoid touching the sides of the screen. However, this thing has no style whatsoever to it. The placement of the cameras feel awkward. They surround an outdated screen which can't even accurately reproduce any whites with... white. The body's design looks like a tuperware cover. To be honest, I would pay much more than this phone costs for anything like an LG G5 or V20... and not only do they come with better specs but they're also cheaper.

hi erica, just a short question... will you get your hands on on the new xperia xz? i know you weren't a fan on their past few generations of mobile phones but i think the xz is quiet worth to take a look at it as it has several new improvements to it.
The Apple IPhone 7 cost nearly 1600 dollars which is an insane price for a phone that in many was 8s not better than a Huawei Honour 8. As incredible as it seems it's true.
I know you like iphone but I would like to see the comparison of the Note 7 & the iPhone 7. I love your reviews and you are very accurate in you reviews so I just can't wait for this to happen.
After the whole Note 7 catching fire debacle. Which phone would you use as your daily driver iPhone 7/7 plus or Note 7 or any other phone. Would love to see a camera comparison between the iPhone 7 family And the Note 7. Thank you.
I'm indifferent. I ordered the 7 Plus Rose Gold, currently using the 6s Plus in Rose Gold, but kinda feeling like I should've skipped this year. But I'm justifying it because I have Jump on Demand! 👊🏼
I like your reviews. Honest and very straight forward. My question is what do you think about the Air Pods? Is it an innovation or a gimmick? Thank you and God bless.
As you mentioned, iOS does color management really well and automatically adjusts itself to sRGB and DCI-P3 content so both look the way they are supposed to, unlike on Android that has zero color management. Also, I don’t know how Apple makes the P3 images look normal on sRGB displays. All the images I’ve seen so far on the internet looked fine. It’s almost as if it captures and saves both color spaces in the EXIF and displays one accordingly, if at all that is possible.
Hello Erica! Wanted to know what YOU think of Apple removing the headphone jack, since it seems to be the thing that people are debating about when it comes these phones. Eg. Not being able to listen to music while charging your phone UNLESS you have the wireless earpods
Waiting for the launch here in Brazil. Are you getting the smaller 7 as well? Which one would you pick up? I currently have a 6 Plus and I've been thinking about going for the smaller version this time around... I don't know, but I think the size of my current device feels like it's too big, but I'm also afraid that the regular 7 can be too small. Oh, and the screen quality (HD x full HD) also worries me. Thanks for the video!
Just curious to know is the wide Angle camera anything like the Camera on the LG G5? That camera can definitely get some dope wide angle shots. I can't wait for my Matte Black 7 Plus to come in the mail.
So I had a 6 plus. Wasn't gonna upgrade until the 8 but friend talked me into a note 7..we all know how that ended. I really liked the note but missed the smoothness n battery life of my 6 plus. Replaced the note 7 with a 7 plus. Coming from the 6 plus it's a decent upgrade. Display looks better, better camera(but not worth an upgrade had I still had my 6 plus after the note situation I would of just reactivated it until the 8 next year). What l like most that my 6 plus didn't have is 3D Touch. Besides that no big differences imo. Biggest plus to me is the incredible speed of this phone not to say my 6 plus was slow. But it took going back to android for two months to appreciate the speed and lack of lag with apple. I had forgotten about the lag on android since I hadn't owned one since my first smartphone the galaxy s4. Revisiting android also made me realize just how good apples are with conserving battery during standby. That note would just drain in standby basically had to disable everything to slow the drain. Guess that's y it's good to walk on the other side of the fence every once and a while. It allows one to see the pros/cons of both sides and determine where they want to be more accurately. My recommendation..if u have a 6/6plus(n esp if it's the s) do not upgrade. You'll enjoy the upgrade but it isn't worth it this year. Save the money you were gonna spend on the upgrade and just apply it towards getting the highest level iPhone 8 next year. Fingers crossed for the OLED displays next year. Saturated it may be but that note 7's display UNMATCHED. Hopefully we can experience a great display on the iPhone 8 next year.
Really appreciate you're biased free reviews ! I am still tied up on what phone I want. Been with Android a while and wanting to switch it up. Apparently no rush since iPhone 7+ isn't available for pickup and the Note7 recall . Wish these folks would get it together 🙄
Can you find out what lighting conditions are required for the "telephoto" lens to be disabled? In low light, if you use the zoom feature and cover the telephoto lens, you'll notice your viewfinder is still showing an image, which is from the main lens.
Hello Erica, love your vids. I want to know if the "button" and camera glass is still a Saphire glass, cause i've heard it's not anymore. Also i wanted to ask you, there have some rumors about the iPhone 7 making a weird noise when it's CPU is on a high power task Thank you a lot! :) love you.
Maybe use the iphone 7 for all of your music/media stuff for a week and then tell us how it is to use this phone for media without a proper headphone jack, and only the adapter? Maybe to try and demystify the whole issue with the lack of the headphone jack, lots of people seem so concerned despite the adapter being there, even though I don't think many people charge w/ headphones plugged in.
Erica which phone u think has the best display and also among OLEDS and LCDs. i.e best OLED and best LCD...i think best is note 7 best OLED is note 7 and best LCD is Sony xperia z5 premium. Whats your view? you consider apple's dislplay to be good?
Who else is watching when the iPhone 11 is out
Axel Benavides meee 🙋♀️😂
Axel Benavides I am looking forward of getting the iPhone 11 Pro Max

Having upgraded from the 6 to the 7, I'm loving it. And I really love the feel of the new home button.
why hasn't anyone said anything about how HTC did this stereo speaker setup first? not even a mention in any videos.
because Apple did it first (._.)
who cares
Because HTC and all other manufacturers are irrelevant. iPhone is the gold standard, THE phone against which all others are measured.
QRS3C273 I hope that's sarcasm
He is right...the iPhone Erica is using is in fact Gold in color :D
Who else likes before the video starts?
The video loads to quickly for me to do that
And with me we are 10!
The video didn't say anything... I actually disliked. Wasn't really a proper review, just a bunch of random opinions for way too long.
It is an unboxing and impressions video. Her review video will be a different video so if you're looking reviews you should watch that instead.
It wasn't meant to be a review. She stated as much in the video.
Now you can't use home button while using glove in winter! Neat!
Now that's innovation! :P
you can't use touch screen either
Yes you can, it reacts to force
+TopToad but its also capacitive.
To be fair, what were you doing with your home button before that you didn't need to interact with the screen before?
what's your expectations for the IPhone 8 ?? we need a new better upgrades. not the same iPhone.
Apple it's all about the hype, no way it's worth upgrading from the 6s...
P.s U R the best Erica!
Finally not a black iPhone 7 review.
How does the plus dual camera compare to the samsung flagship S7 edge/Note 7? Also, favourite colour for the new iPhone? :>
Also, the screen comparison. People say the samsung has more pixels and what not but some also prefer the apple screen in that it's "crispier" (colour gamut or something?). So, how true is this? thankies
And finally (sorry for the long windedness), which phone/phones is/are more worth it? And which would you se as your daily driver/everyday-use phone? thanks :)
Robert are you kiddin me ? Samsung AMOLED display is the best performing display that they have "ever" tested !
can't I have a second opinion :v and from a person who has experienced a vast array of phones pffffftttrtrrrrtttttt
+Robert I'm not an android but the Samsung has the best display hands down
The thumbs up is for you, Erica. Your assessment of the phone is fair, impartial, and educational. Keep up the good work. I own a Samsung Galaxy S6 and feel the iPhone does not meet my wants. They are Android's strengths: moving icons within a thumbs reach, app drawers (hidden) for clean look, and an IR blaster like the V20 (reason I won't buy an S7 or N7). Thank you 😄
The photos capture a wider range of colors; does this mean they'll look oversaturated in any way on other sRGB displays?
+Aden J Purcell a wide gamut photo on an sRGB display will actually be opposite. It will look washed out because the mapping will be wrong.

It's hard to say until I try it. If it has been done intelligently then the images should look fine
Could you, please do some qucik camera comparison, between ip7 plus and s7/note 7?
Wondering which one will be better, especially in low light:)
the photos taken by an iPhone 7 looks more saturated than it's predecessor.
The Note 7 still looks more pleasing, it does better in low light. There's already a few comparison videos out there. The gap has gotten closer so props to apple, but Samsung just knows how to make a good camera.

Im happy to hear that:)
I loved the comments you made on the colors of the display and how if it isn't made for the display it won't look right. I can never get anyone to understand that!
Want comparison between iphone 7 plus and S7 edge or note 7
Oops camera and performance comparison between this two
Thank you for the unboxing 😍😁👍🏻
For me S7 Edge is the best Camera phone now , because it's focus extremely fast then any other phone . But for video recording I still prefer iPhone 7 Plus , btw dual camera not just deliver good quality when zoom in , it's also make the phone more Badass lol
Owen - Chanel just saying Google pixel has best camera of 2016 in phones 1.Google pixel xl.2.Iphone 7 plus.3.Note7.4.S7/s7 edge
When you peel the protective plastic off the phone, that sound is sooooo satisfying❤️
Remember the time when everybody keeps complaining that the camera bump of the iPhone 6 bugs them and might destroy its camera?
Well now the bump is is even bigger...😓
Very detailed unboxing. You covered a lot of topics other videos don't have
who is watching tjis on an iphone 7+ or 7 NOT ME. me android😉
So am I
WTF 🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕
They had us in the first half, not gonna lie.
Nice quick review. You are one of the few who actually takes time talking about the colurs (gamma and stuff) :) Apple sure are rushing out all those models now. Not sooner you got the 6s you get the 7. And by time you get the 7s, 8 is just around the corner.
All im hoping is that the previous models (mainly 6+s) will fall in price. It is still stupid expensive.
Oh, and have fun trying to polish off scratches and fingerprints on a glossey black surface :P
how can you buy so many phones? It breaks my heart! :( I want one too
and it was my birthday on 16th I couldn't even open this yesterday!!!
thanks for the review, its better than others ive seen so far. Seems like other reviewers are obsessed with scratching the jet black and nobody has talked about the stereo speakers other than this review
Is the camera quality and features worth that huge hump
Nope
No if you have 6s plus. For sure if you have an iPhone 6
bruh new iPhone is not a better a screen and little bit camera upgrade. that's it lol
Back in 2011, I switched from the Iphone to the Infuse 4G. I love the expandable memory, the Super AMOLED Display, and the bigger screens. Especially after I went to the Note 2.

I think Apple won't go any bigger with the phone I think that's as big as a phone can get
Daniel Desmond It will supposedly the iPhone 8 will be 5"2 inches and the plus is 5"9 inches
DANIEL 69 true
DANIEL 69 lol if only you were able to see 2018 you wouldn’t have made this comment because the now have even bigger screens
Same size,bigger screen,iPhone XS
Now with the 11 pro max👁️👄👁️
Hi Erica, unboxing. Normally I hate unboxing videos. This didn't feel like one. I have the 6s and I updated to the 7 solely for more storage. All the other improvements are just gravy to me. I'll be looking forward to your full review.
Great vid... But damn that's a huge phone compared to the note 7..just saying
Huge phone with no utility either like the Note series.
haha they're about the same size. The iPhone just appears bigger because it's slightly wider.
Harley, every aspect of the iPhone 7 is bigger exept for the thickness even though the note 7 has a bigger screen. Apple is a joke.
Its so large because it needs space for the home button...
Those ugly bezels
Every time I skip a little and your holding both the 6s plus and the 7 plus facing forward, I can never tell which one is the new one. They look Exactly the same until you turn them around. I think I'll skip this upgrade from my 6 S Plus and get the Note 7...when the replacements come in.
As you are underwhelmed by the 7plus, your review is underwhelming. 1. The camera lenses are wide-angle and telephoto; not regular and telephoto. 2.

Has nothing to do with full-review or not...some statements were just misleading or wrong altogether.
wait for the full review, chill.
yeyyyy i like your videos. i was waiting about new iphone tests. And i love it you filming in smooth 60fps
is it worth it to go from the samsung galaxy s7 edge to the iphone 7?
for me, its not and a big waste of money... its better to change a phone yearly rather than changing everytime a phone brand of your preference releases a new model, and no i didnt mean that the iphone 7 is not worth it, it actually is worth it because of everything new the only thing that ruined it is no jack.
But if your rich, go ahead(its not my waste anyway), the iphone 7 is a good phone and all but without a jack.

im 15 years old.
no its not worth it
Wow Erica, after watching just crisp and clean video like this at 60 fps is hard to watch other tech channels :)
iPhones don't really look all that different from the previous models, then again the same can be said about Samsung devices...-_-
check out lg. every phone had an distinctive look. the new v20 is killer imo
***** oh yeah I've seen the new V20 LG hit a home run with that device, then again the V10 was also a very good/uniquely designed device. Another good design is Xperia XZ imo
adrian strozier agreed. The HTC 10 looks sick. Moto and the moto mods are innovated as heck
adrian strozier thank you samsung always look alike
Thank you. Your details about design make me feel like the Iphone 7 plus gold. Just this color. I am using Iphone 6s, but what you introduce, I can see: camera, it is a bit difficult, I think it is cute, sound is stereo, taptic engine, bright, battery,...enough I can buy it, and absolutely the old Iphone is my wife.
OMG, look at those bezels. Welcome to 2007.
Watching on my 6s Plus waiting for the 8. time come. Almost got the 7 plus but thankfully they were back ordered of course so I passed. Glad I did because besides the camera and like 0.03 seconds faster, it's like the same as the 6s Plus.

I have the 2015 Macbook Pro with the force trackpad so I'm excited for the home button on the new phones. My 7 plus will be in next week 🙌🏾
Why the hell is this weird connector instead of usb-c?
Lightning Connector exclusive to Apple products
It makes Apple lots of money, that's why it's there! Headphone jack didn't make Apple any money so it's bye-bye!
Totally worth it, this a really nice phone getting that gold color right now at the store, thank you.
that haptic home button is horrid to use
I got used to it after a hour, it's totally fine.
A protective case, on the phone, would help the finger, find the Home button, on the iPhone 7, like my Otterbox case. Otherwise, in the dark, it would be tricky, without a case. With the Otterbox case on the phone, the iPhone 7's button is the better one. I wished, there were a Back button, and a Menu button next to the Home Button though. Would make use of that huge bezel, at the bottom.
It feels the same as the old home button, it just doesn't depress, how is it harder to find?
I hate it when I forget its inactive without skin contact, I used to love being able to press the button with my fingernail.
Do to the Note7 recall, I got the matte black 7 Plus! Huge fan of gold though, my 5s and 6s Plus were gold!
Doble speakers And One Of them is fake. the tear down video shows there is an empty space where the jackphone was. & the camera comparison GALAXY S7 Has The best camera. also Iphone 7 fail the Glass & back scratch Test
The other speaker is at the receiver.
yep, pretty sure.
Okay so the "fake speaker" yeah aesthetically it looks bette reign a fake speaker than empty space
Sorry to say this, but you're wrong. There isn't empty space where the headphone jack was. There is necessary hardware there for the new home button, as well as a microphone and if I'm not mistake, also hardware for the motherboard and lighting connector.
Honestly, I'm fine with my 6s Plus. I'm not in a business where my phone has to take pictures 'a little' better in the dark, or have 'a little' better performance, or have 'a little' bit of a new design. I wonder what will be upgraded in the 7s.
I give that phone a thumbs down 👎
But Erica I give you a thumbs up 👍 👌
Hey!
Can you test the hardness of materials used in home button, camera lens and LED flash as well as the screen itself. I've heard rumors that Apple doesn't use Sapphire Glass in any of these which sounds scary to me...
Plus could you open the differences between A1660, A1661, A1778, A1784, A1779, A1785 -models and which one to buy if I live in a GSM-only country but travel a lot in CDMA-only countries. (My presuppose is that A1661 is the best.)
Can you also give an example of how much a regular photo (or Live Photo) on an iPhone 7 Plus takes space and how much stuff you can fit into each model (32, 128, 256GB).
In reality by how much battery life expands if you compare it to the 6S Plus?
A review on Apple Silicone / Leather case would be really useful also.
These are just what were first on my mind...
Thank you!
Theres no sapphire on the 7. that isnt all negative, that means its more shatterproof but less scratchproof
Ah lol just saw your comment
it's the same shit only thing different is antenna,camera and headphone jack
and A10 chip...
@mr nobody to be honest the last few generations of flagships, no matter from wich manufactur, are all so fast that i didn't even notice a performance difference anymore when switch to a new generation flagship. so im never really impressed with new and faster chips anymore as i know in real life use there will be barley any difference. smartphones came to the point where they just overkill it with there specs.
No it's faster that every smart phone in existence and is almost as fast as the Mac book Pro. It depends on what you are up grading from I have it and to me it is worth if
If you are talking performance , there is no phone that same as iPhone . Especially when come in game performance , if u have watch a lot comparison video then I guess you know that iPhone open game is fastest , I'm iPhone user the reason I get iPhone is because for Gaming , Oneplus 3 gaming is not as smooth as iPhone that the truth . One plus 3 just have fastest animation and 6GB ram
Francis Kigutaq-Sauvé élève oh no it doesn't. The iPhone 7 and 7 plus' processor is way more powerful than the one plus 3. Look at the benchmarks if you don't believe. Android users gotta come clean...
Finally, I see someone unboxing another Iphone 7 plus color
I would get it if they had a headphone jack
there is on the appstore.
To listen to music will I have to get a lightning to 3.5mm jack adapter? I am getting this refurbished in very good condition
Why couldnt they just keep the fuckin button
Short answer. Mechanical buttons break.
Long answer. China. My understanding is China has a real hangup with mechanical buttons and them breaking. And they go out of their way to use things like Assistive Touch to avoid using the home button. And Apple really really wants to sell more phones in China.
It would of been a huge leap if apple put a home button in the software digitally rather then making a non physical home button with a taptic feed back engine with a emulated click.
Tim crook and her $ making strat is to copy Android.
its the future. fool
Detroit101 It's the future fool so shut up before I beat yo skinny ass wit mah new iPhone 7 plus
I can't wait for your screen measurements. The iPhone already has a 99% sRGB coverage and stunning color accuracy, what did they do to make it better exactly? It just sounds like they oversaturated the entire thing.
Still prefer the note 7.
yes so it can blow up on your face. I'm sticking with my note 5
Gaming Guy94 Ain't gunna blow up after the recall though is it. Change the record.
Yea Note 7 even with the issues is better than this crap. my wife got the 7. she came from an iPhone 6. even coming from a 6, this was a non sense upgrade. ios10 brought enough features for the average consumer.
apple sucks. not being a fan boy but I've owned several apple products and the only thing I like is the camera. other than that Apple can go somewhere
Cool story bro.
That bezel remind me of the i95 when it's backed up with traphic
I can't wait for the Samsung Galaxy s8. It'll blow us away.
literally
Buthurt so much because in real world S7 still faster? +Kim Bradley
Nah I don't give a shit which is faster. Just thought it was a joke which needed to be made 🙃
+Agent Hector uncle ben
+Adhi Suryana iph 6s is still faster than s7
my wife has the 6 and I upgraded her to the 7 plus. I'm worried it's going to be too large for her to use but we'll have to see!
Looks like a downgrade, you have one less feature, a headphone jack.
Total agree with you.
Bigger battery though
Wow
Yeah I hate bluetooth, them batter drainers...
Hi Erica,
I discovered something BIG on this iPhone 7 Plus Have you tried to cover the left lens (the one close to the flashlight)and see it's only one camera that dose the job of zooming 2x the other camera doesn't do anything at all! Wow wow wow try it and please do a technical review.
The Note Series is for broke people who have MetroPCS and can't afford an IPhone.
* TRIGGERED * - Android Fans
Note 7 cost more than ur house boy. And I have an iphone lmao
Burn
Well if prices make a phone better, iPhone is shit compared to that Porsche Android phone. And Note phones are not cheap. Please, if you are going to bash other phones, then don't talk out of your ass and make yourself look like an iSheep.
xNewSocietyx I didn't know my house costed $900
Just ordered 256G 7+. Upgrading from a 5. So worth it for me.
I love your explanation and I love to listen to you l learn from you a lot you make me remember my chemistry teacher at high school the students will like if you start to teach . thanks a lot
the ugliest iPhone ever
the most beautiful was iPhone 5,5s,SE
Yeah, looks horrible.Look like a big bar of soap.I'm an Android guy, love my Lg, but you are right, the 5s is nice, and easy to operate with one hand.
+Anmol Sahi agreed
the most beatiful was iphone 1. Iphone 1 was a revolution in the history of phones dude. NEVER FORGET THAT
iPhone 5s is attractive.
I like the antenna lines as the were like racing stripes but it doesn't matter since lots of people use a case. With a case on it looks like a 6 series phone.
If apple sells poop💩 of their employees with their apple logo on top, still people will buy!¡
learn proper English.
if your saying that Apple is retarded then ya, I agree with you m8
iPoop would be more technologically advanced than the iPhone 7.
At least we don't get a grenade.
You do know that not everyone on the internet is American right? You're making yourself sound like a dumbass...
I'd like to see the same waterproof test done to the iPhone 7 Plus, that you did with the SGS7. As I am curious to see how water resistant the iPhone 7 Plus really is.
iphone 7 no headphone jack iphone 8 no volume rocker
iPhone 9 no camera
iphone 10 no screen
iPhone 11 no phone.
Watch apple remove the speakers next
iphone 12 no glass
Hi, Erica, you got any suggestion for me whether go get the new iPhone 7 plus or go with galaxy note 7 or whether i should wait for the new nexus.. I've been wanting to upgrade my phone which is oneplus 2 it's fairly new but i don't like it as much... btwlove your vids and keep up the good work
I hate the gold colour...
Its my favorite
Great review-
I too play around w android- almost got
The note 7- but waited & I love what I have no need to upgrade unless I do the jet black lol same as u said! Love the appearance of that camera- and I'm enjoying iOS 10 on the 6s Plus so sorta feels kinda new lol have fun! I might just hold off to the 8 ❤️
It looks downright ugly.
I don't mind bezels. I don't want to have to hold the phone with my fingertips just to avoid touching the sides of the screen. However, this thing has no style whatsoever to it. The placement of the cameras feel awkward. They surround an outdated screen which can't even accurately reproduce any whites with... white. The body's design looks like a tuperware cover. To be honest, I would pay much more than this phone costs for anything like an LG G5 or V20... and not only do they come with better specs but they're also cheaper.

And I thought I was the only one who thought so
Yeah the Plus versions look awful
hi erica, just a short question... will you get your hands on on the new xperia xz? i know you weren't a fan on their past few generations of mobile phones but i think the xz is quiet worth to take a look at it as it has several new improvements to it.
what a ugly looking phone. those bezels are too much for a 800+ bucks phone
The Apple IPhone 7 cost nearly 1600 dollars which is an insane price for a phone that in many was 8s not better than a Huawei Honour 8. As incredible as it seems it's true.
it's not ugly are you BLIND
where do u live that it cost 1600
It's hideous. Thick bezels not even once
@yogosans14 it's ugly af go to doctor
I know you like iphone but I would like to see the comparison of the Note 7 & the iPhone 7. I love your reviews and you are very accurate in you reviews so I just can't wait for this to happen.
The most boring phones on the planet..... Woo hoo they made a jet black one.... Same shit different day..... Zzzzz #note7 #OneLove
Yeah she's not impressed either but nobody can blame her it's a another disappointing and boring iPhone for a big bag of money.
Guess what tho some people actually prefer apple over Samsung get over it. It's a damn phone
Are you looking for a fun phone dumbass
Dan the man speaks the truth !! 😂
i agree dude same shit every year
After the whole Note 7 catching fire debacle. Which phone would you use as your daily driver iPhone 7/7 plus or Note 7 or any other phone. Would love to see a camera comparison between the iPhone 7 family And the Note 7.
Thank you.
please dive deap into the body and quality of the build. Love how observant you are in all your reviews! keep rockin!
I'm indifferent. I ordered the 7 Plus Rose Gold, currently using the 6s Plus in Rose Gold, but kinda feeling like I should've skipped this year. But I'm justifying it because I have Jump on Demand! 👊🏼
love that the iPhone 6s Plus, is beautiful😍😍😍 that’s my fav forever, I would like to change my iPhone 8 Plus silver with the 6s plus gold💔
wow awesome wish to get this iphone7 one day but its v expensive ur videos r always awesome..gold i also looking great
I like your reviews. Honest and very straight forward. My question is what do you think about the Air Pods? Is it an innovation or a gimmick? Thank you and God bless.
personally i like having a real button . its more accurate and harder to accidentally press. it also feels nicer.
I'm disappointed we didn't get any footage of your trip to the Apple store on launch day like we did last year! That was so funny
Finally a lady user who don't choose rose gold. Great job!!! All I watch all day you only one.
Actually 3 days.
I might get the iPhone 7 Plus on Saturday , what’s you’re opinion about the QUALITY OF THE CAMERA?😅
As you mentioned, iOS does color management really well and automatically adjusts itself to sRGB and DCI-P3 content so both look the way they are supposed to, unlike on Android that has zero color management. Also, I don’t know how Apple makes the P3 images look normal on sRGB displays. All the images I’ve seen so far on the internet looked fine. It’s almost as if it captures and saves both color spaces in the EXIF and displays one accordingly, if at all that is possible.
Hello Erica! Wanted to know what YOU think of Apple removing the headphone jack, since it seems to be the thing that people are debating about when it comes these phones. Eg. Not being able to listen to music while charging your phone UNLESS you have the wireless earpods
1st and I know this unboxing is gonna be awesome!😎
Waiting for the launch here in Brazil. Are you getting the smaller 7 as well? Which one would you pick up? I currently have a 6 Plus and I've been thinking about going for the smaller version this time around... I don't know, but I think the size of my current device feels like it's too big, but I'm also afraid that the regular 7 can be too small. Oh, and the screen quality (HD x full HD) also worries me. Thanks for the video!
Wow the Iphone 7 plus look HUGE. Glad I'm getting to regular 7.
Just curious to know is the wide Angle camera anything like the Camera on the LG G5? That camera can definitely get some dope wide angle shots. I can't wait for my Matte Black 7 Plus to come in the mail.
Hey Erica Griffin...do you prefer the matte black or the gold iPhone 7 plus??
Can hardly wait for you to review the camera! 😎👌
What I want is a Note 7 design with Apple iPhone innards, iOS 10.0.1 and dual camera
So I had a 6 plus. Wasn't gonna upgrade until the 8 but friend talked me into a note 7..we all know how that ended. I really liked the note but missed the smoothness n battery life of my 6 plus. Replaced the note 7 with a 7 plus. Coming from the 6 plus it's a decent upgrade. Display looks better, better camera(but not worth an upgrade had I still had my 6 plus after the note situation I would of just reactivated it until the 8 next year). What l like most that my 6 plus didn't have is 3D Touch. Besides that no big differences imo. Biggest plus to me is the incredible speed of this phone not to say my 6 plus was slow. But it took going back to android for two months to appreciate the speed and lack of lag with apple. I had forgotten about the lag on android since I hadn't owned one since my first smartphone the galaxy s4. Revisiting android also made me realize just how good apples are with conserving battery during standby. That note would just drain in standby basically had to disable everything to slow the drain. Guess that's y it's good to walk on the other side of the fence every once and a while. It allows one to see the pros/cons of both sides and determine where they want to be more accurately. My recommendation..if u have a 6/6plus(n esp if it's the s) do not upgrade. You'll enjoy the upgrade but it isn't worth it this year. Save the money you were gonna spend on the upgrade and just apply it towards getting the highest level iPhone 8 next year. Fingers crossed for the OLED displays next year. Saturated it may be but that note 7's display UNMATCHED. Hopefully we can experience a great display on the iPhone 8 next year.
I love that you chose the gold one :-)
Really appreciate you're biased free reviews ! I am still tied up on what phone I want. Been with Android a while and wanting to switch it up. Apparently no rush since iPhone 7+ isn't available for pickup and the Note7 recall . Wish these folks would get it together 🙄
I want to buy iPhone 7 plus gold, but i want to know more about this. Can you make more videos about the iPhone 7 plus?
Can you find out what lighting conditions are required for the "telephoto" lens to be disabled? In low light, if you use the zoom feature and cover the telephoto lens, you'll notice your viewfinder is still showing an image, which is from the main lens.
Hello Erica, love your vids.
I want to know if the "button" and camera glass is still a Saphire glass, cause i've heard it's not anymore.
Also i wanted to ask you, there have some rumors about the iPhone 7 making a weird noise when it's CPU is on a high power task
Thank you a lot! :) love you.
theres no sapphire on the 7
Maybe use the iphone 7 for all of your music/media stuff for a week and then tell us how it is to use this phone for media without a proper headphone jack, and only the adapter? Maybe to try and demystify the whole issue with the lack of the headphone jack, lots of people seem so concerned despite the adapter being there, even though I don't think many people charge w/ headphones plugged in.
hey Erica...can u do an unboxing of the galaxy j1 ace neo? really want to see its features
Erica which phone u think has the best display and also among OLEDS and LCDs. i.e best OLED and best LCD...i think best is note 7 best OLED is note 7 and best LCD is Sony xperia z5 premium. Whats your view? you consider apple's dislplay to be good?
