Finally upgraded from my iPhone 5 to the iPhone 7. Applications open/switch/close very quickly. The screen is much brighter and with better contrast. Still on the fence how I feel about taking the 1/8 jack away. It comes with lighting to 1/8 adapter (note that you cannot charge when using it). It really seemed that my iPhone 5 had better cellular reception on average. Found that a bit odd. Tried with LTE enabled/disable... but seem all the same. I have Sprint.

Love this phone, especially in this color. Fits right in the palm of my hand and works very well. Call quality is exceptional. Features are well integrated and Apple keeps it updated regularly. It just works and that is a beautiful thing!

I bought one for myself and one for my wife. So far, I am pretty happy with the phone's features. Right off the top the obvious change was the headphone jack was missing and I was a little worried about it. So far, I haven't really missed the headphone jack and the wireless headphones are pretty good. I definitely like the water resistant feature. I have already gotten the phone wet a couple times and it keeps on working. My two main concerns: 1) coverage around my home isnt so great for data. Ive noticed that instead of being on LTE, its usually 3G. I am not sure if this is a Sprint thing. Its not horrible but something to keep in mind. 2) The App Store seems to run slower, even on WiFi, particularly when downloading updates for apps. Sometimes I have to hit update multiple times to get the app update. I am not sure if that is the OS or something with this phone. Again, not horrible, but could be better.

I suppose you're either Apple or Android... I've been both, and suppose it's only accurate to say that it's a perpetual love / hate relationship with both. Apple's carrying a narrow lead at present, and this, because of its constantly good image quality -- I've heard that the renowned Galaxy series, among other Android offerings, are better, I just have yet to actually see it -- the well-stocked app store, etc. My gripes are similar to everyone else's, and I'm not going to waste time here enumerating them when it's already been done ad nauseum. Suffice to say that with four iPhones and one Galaxy in the family, thus far, there's only one user who constantly complains that: 1) my battery is always dead, 2) there isn't any space on my phone, and I just deleted almost everything, 3) I was standing right where you were... Why do all my pictures look so lousy? Etc. In the spirit of full disclosure, however, the Galaxy did get dropped off the top of the car AND then run over -- tire tracks visible -- and didn't sustain a scratch. With the same regular use that almost every smartphone sustains daily nowadays, the battery in the 7 is crowding 0% by the end of the day. The efficiency of the apps on the phone have to be faulted as playing a major part in that, as background usage can be much higher for one of two similar apps left unattended in the background. Lacking the dual camera functions available to the 7 Plus, the image quality is still great, but I believe that the benefits available through both lenses acting in tandem in a variety of sometimes unexpected ways is catching on with a number of phone designers -- perhaps getting close to one of Apple last few opportunities to truly innovate. Everything said, we have a 7 Plus and two 7s in the family and everyone's very happy with their individual choice. I don't think that you can really make a bad decision here.

Things about this device I love: 1- I never have to worry about storage, 2- I only have one case port that I can easily cover, 3- the touch ID button doesn't actually depress, 4- an already awesome camera is even better, 5- 3-D touch is an intuitive feature, 6-the 6th generation was the perfect size and keeping similar detentions has been helpful, 7- the advance in hardware really does make a difference.

It's no better than any of the previous i-phones. If I could go back I'd buy a Samsung galaxy, it's more user friendly and uses an sd card, so no extra cost for saving your photos.

Was trying to avoid upgrading expenses by repairing my old phone but couldn't resist all the extra storage space an upgraded camera an features on the phone would go with the 7+ if it was available at time of purchase but the slightly larger screen then my 5s is good enough. Even with otter box defender case on it fits in my jeans pockets with no problem

I had an iphone5 but then changed to a Galaxy S5 as my work phone. I am not a big fan of Apple but gotta say that the iPhone is far superior to Samsung. Better camera easier to use but most of all I could never get used to the Samsung keyboard. For about 2 years I tried to get used to it but I guess If you're used to the iPhone keyboard you just can't do anything with the Samsung. Tried other keyboard apps but nothing did the trick. Guess I'm an apple guy from now on

The iPhone 7 is significantly better than the 6S -- so it was worth it to buy it. Ditto for the 256 GB size -- it's SO much more convenient than the 16GB or 32GB versions. (Both my parents and my wife agreed -- they all did the same and upgraded to a 7, 256 GB too.)
