On Texags, when I click post reply on my new 7plus it zooms in so I can't see the left or right boundaries. I have to zoom out to see the whole screen. Any thoughts?

Carriers are will give $400 for working 5 series, over 24 months. $650 for 6 series.

Screen can't be cracked.

Yup, I had the same issue on the 6S Plus after the iOS 10 update and now on my 7 Plus as well.

I walked into BestBuy yesterday and picked up a 256GB Black Iphone 7 with only a short wait.

"Supposedly" I can get the $650 off the price, too. According to the BestBuy website and the guy that set it up.

Gotta call AT&T and confirm that today...

That's what my wife ordered. I ordered a jet black 128g plus and it's December.

Initial review:

Super fast. Camera is fantastic. Battery life seems about the same. Haven't noticed the lack of headphone jack.

Well worth the upgrade from the 6...not sure if it would be from the 6S.

I ordered mine on a saturday and got it on tuesday.. sales guy said people ordering certain colors are waiting several weeks. (apparently like some of you on this thread)

Don't you put it in a case? Why bother with a certain color?


Anyway, I got mine in last week, and I'm pretty mad. I've only had 2 bars every time I look at it. I have dropped calls in my house, and standing outside my house. My old 6 and wife's old 5 work/worked perfectly since we moved in this house 3 years ago and my wife's new SE works fine. Now I have to deal with this *****
I'm at work now, and two bars. I tried out of the case too, same result.

Anybody else have issues with reception?
7 128gb in matte black.

As far as the phone, I love the new features (coming from a 6)
3D touch is great, the expanded home menu, the new home button. The 'live' picture setting is strange. Not sure if it's worth the extra space they take (twice the size for some of them)

Anything other than black has a white bezel which I find extremely distracting and I don't use a case that covers the bezel.

Do you have Verizon? If so, this is an ongoing issue. There's a long thread about it on MacRumors. Lots of people, including myself, having the same problem. I'm sure there will be a software update soon to address it. Still really annoying.

I'm on Verizon with a 7 and I've noticed it too. For some reason it's like my phone defaults to 3G instead of LTE in lots of places that I know I get LTE coverage. I haven't noticed cell coverage being all that bad, but then again I never really call people so I wouldn't notice.

Same here. I've noticed it drop to no signal randomly. Usually when I restart it or turn airplane mode on and off, it fixes itself. Here's the link to MacRumors about it: Verizon iPhone 7 Issues

Actually no AT&T.

I read about the verizon.. I don't see anything with AT&T. I think I'll call them.

I have the iPhone 6S Plus, and I've had this issue for a long time. I'll come out of underground parking garages, where I get no signal, and it will acquire a 3G signal. It's not uncommon to see that right before it switches to LTE, but I've sat there for several minutes and watched it stay at 3G. Then, I'll flash on/off airplane mode, and magically, it acquires an LTE signal.

So is it worth making the trade to a 7 from a 6s? Sounds like if you are trading in a 6, it's a no-brainer. Just on the fence with my 6s.

That's really odd. I've had a 5S for the last two years and never had any issues with it.

Well, performance wise, it's not a huge upgrade.. same camera, same ram..

But, how often can you trade in an old phone for $650??

I thought the camera was new. The 6s doesn't have dual cameras.

The 7 does have a new camera compared to the 6S still. New lens and added optical image stabilization.

Yeah, the pictures that I've taken with my 7 Plus and my gf has taken with her 7 are super impressive compared to the 6 and 6S Plus.

Here's a picture of the amazing BBQ sandwich I had for dinner on Friday night that I took with my 7 Plus.



And a couple other pictures I took. Haven't taken any pictures outdoors yet though.

I just meant both are 12mp. aperture changes as well.

6s+ had optical image stabilization.

Front camera actually was upgraded from 5mp to 7mp.

The regular 6 and 6S did not have optical image stabilization and the base 7 does.
