I have been using my new iPhone 7 plus for a few hours now. It def has a more yellowish tint, and for sure isn't 25% brighter than my 6s. Other than that, I can't complain. Takes beautiful crisp pictures. Seems snappy, although not sure I notice it's that much faster than my old phone.
 
My 7 is fast. Very impressed. Stereo speakers are an improvement. Tracks on pandora sound the exact same as before with the lightning port headphones as they did with the 3.5mm audio jack.

Got my silver 256GB 7 Plus today. Everything's good except for a tiny speck of dust inside the screen near the right edge. Verified it's dust and not a stuck pixel. Put a screen protector on and the speck of dust almost disappeared. Not an issue for me.

If I wanted to swap it out, whatever I swap it out with might have dead and / or stuck pixels or some other defect.

I read somewhere the 25% plus brightness only come alive in bright sunshine outside. As an emergency feature to enable reading in sunlight.

Could someone please verify that?
 
Where did you purchase your glass screen protector?

It was an extra PowerSupport matte screen protector for my iPhone 6s that I had lying around. PowerSupport hasn't released them for the iPhone 7 yet but if you need one now, go with the 6s version. The port hole for the phone speaker is just a hair too small. But totally a non issue and worth protecting the rest of the screen now while waiting for the iPhone 7 film release. PowerSupport makes the best film there is, IMO. Hope this helps.

Looking at these pics from the 6s they really are great and shows how far top smartphone cameras have come regardless if it's an s7 or iPhone, we've become to picky infairness, if these pics were shown on a tech site with all the fancy **** they have we wouldn't know the difference, i think Apple was clever this time though with the plus having the zoom, the 2x opt zoom and the digital zoom has also been improved in good lighting will make a big difference and I can see Apple working on a few extra bits for plus camera, really nice can't wait for mine!

After having a 6 plus for two years downsized to a 7 jet black 256.

Upon opening it immediately went into a wallet case. The glossy finish looks good and seamless.

No issues with the home button.

Coming from a plus the smaller screen will take getting used to. But so far it's great.
I love the lighter weight, it's more portable, it just feels better.
With my plus making phone calls was always weird trying to find where to line the speaker up to my ear. With the 7 it feels like a phone again.

And the speed is intense. It's so much faster.
Hope everyone enjoys their phones.
 
Got my matte black 128gb 7 plus and I'm liking it. Came from 6S plus and really enjoying the stereo speakers. Home button took some getting used to.

It was a regular 6+, not an "S". But yes, great quality. I did no editing or magic wand or anything to them. Only had an end-table lamp for lighting and these were HDR. But you can see the color well with lighting vs darker. It's really a fantastic color.

I'm looking forward to testing out the cameras on my new 7+.
 
Hi guys, sorry for a bit off topic but I noticed my iPhone 7 plus to be giving cracking noises when I was pressing hard. Upon taking into horizontal and a bit twisting/bending left and right, the noise continues like something is cracking inside. Anyone else has the same thing? I don't want to have a broken iPhone on day 1 :(
It shouldn't be doing that. I'll contact Apple for an exchange.

Can you choose whether or not to store in raw format? What size are the raw pictures you've taken?
