I'm not a careful person. And I'm not going to attempt to not scratch that thing. I'm sure it's awesome. Wish I was that guy.
 
What are you guys excited about the 7 plus?

Let's kill some time waiting on Apple to get it together lol

Kinda ridicules to wait forever for a phone.

I'm excited for 3d touch. Coming from my note 5 to iphone 7 plus 128 gb gold tmobile

3D Touch has been out for years...just a gimmicky right click....
 
I am trying to find a Plus 128 in a long time. I just sold my 6S Plus so I am really eager to buy a 7 Plus. The thing that made me want to upgrade to the 7 Plus is the screen quality. I've always dreamed having the same iPad Pro screen on my iPhone, i.e., the wider colour gamut

You should broaden your horizons...there is much better screen technology out their on other devices besides the iPad Pro....

This seems to be your calling card on your post history. You disparage against Apple products by calling them 'Gimmicky', which you use on multiple posts. And 3D Touch is a convenience factor, it wasn't intended to be ground breaking or innovative, it does exactly what it's intended to do, provide a short cut.

I used to get a new phone multiple times a year then when I got on iphone I got a new one once a year. I got the 6 on launch day then halfway into the year I got the 6 plus. I did not get the 6S. So im excited for the 7 plus since im going back to black and the performance improvements and the new camera setup!
 
I'm excited too. But it's just a phone. Please explain why I'm so excited. Lol. Idk why myself. It's weird .
 
And a little boy waits......

Been told 4-6 weeks for 7+ 128 Black. Longer for Jet Black. I can have silver right away but I really want black!

Im in NZ so I imagine we are very low on the shipping priority list!

Huge upgrade for me! Upgrading from a 4S.

Most looking forward to, hmmmmm, that new phone smell, finally another black iPhone, 3D Touch and Taptic feedback (partly so I can get on with programming those bits of my next game, partly oooohhhh new toy,) raise to wake, more RAM, better screen, the cameras on the Plus, trying out that simple headphone pairing (yeah I'll probably buy AirPods, because, well they aren't that bad, they'll fill a gap in my collection and true wireless, oooooooo,) louder and stereo speakers for when I'm cooking and my speakers batteries are flat, better battery life, much better performance than my 6+, water resistant (I'm in Scotland so very handy :D,) trying that new home button, even faster 4G and 4K video recording.

Hmmm, maybe this waiting 2 years between phones isn't such a bad idea after all. That's a bigger list than I've ever had upgrading before when I did it every year. Though if next years is anything as good as it's rumours would have it, then I'll be first in line for that :D

Not looking forward to, Apples "3-4 week delivery" actually being 5-6 weeks, someone needs to teach them counting ;)
 
Can you use swipe on iphone yet?

Not natively. You can download third party keyboards that have it but they aren't going to be full featured and are poorly implemented as Apple has set impossible ram usage requirements for developers.
 
Sounds like a poor excuse. They have all the money in the world they should figure out their own problems without it being our problem.
how the hell are you going to force other manufacturers to ramp up their line without being told to screw off and go find some other company. You sound like a spoiled brat who has no actual clue as to how the world works and expects manna to fall out of the sky.

You took that too personal lol

Thats what you sound like. Why should I care I got my phone 2 days after launch in a store. Why people thinks it's a good idea to ship direct or buy a new color that has lots of manufacturing issues is beyond me. And yes the Jet Black has manufacturing issues with the anonizing process.

While I certainly agree that there are probably some people who may not fully grasp the realities of multi-component manufacturer dependency and just how difficult it is to manufacture tens of millions of devices to a very high standard in a relatively short space of time. That's not why I'm replying really.

That last line just made me think of Pink Floyds Thin Ice and Mother of course. Now I'm going to have to listen to The Wall because it's stuck in my head, still, no bad thing :D
