Went with the Saddle Brown Leather case and soaked it in some espresso grounds to give it a darker tint. It's drying now, but I'll post some pics of it with the phone later.
That looks amazing!!

Thank you for responding. I was wondering whether the 6S ones would fit. That's good to know. Enjoy your new phone!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.
I never use screen protectors (just a personal choice, no need), but I have to say, yours looks really, really good!
Here's a shot I took last night on the 7.
This is my favorite thread right now. Keep the good stuff coming!
Picked up a rose gold 7+ as it was only color choice on 9/9. My first choice was matte black. Got an email from Apple specialist saying he has put in a reservation order for me for a matte black by Sept. 25. Now, I am trying to decide if I want to keep the rose gold, or swap it for matte black. Opinions?
Agreed. This is what is keeping my stamina for waiting for my unicorn phone.
1x vs 2x zoom. Maybe not the best example, but wanted to try on some "nature" while out today.
Not sure why you put Stereo in quotes. The 7 definitely has Stereo speakers.

The stereo speakers are top and bottom. One is the front facing earpiece and the other is the bottom right. The bottom left is not a speaker.
I bought the same case.Went with the Saddle Brown Leather case and soaked it in some espresso grounds to give it a darker tint. It's drying now, but I'll post some pics of it with the phone later.
I chuckled when I read that guys' reply too. He thought he was being smart, when in fact...
Lol.

This is a great example of just how wonderful having two cameras is! Thanks for posting this!!
Love my matte black 7 so far. Only complaint is the tiny bit of lag when going home or multitasking.
So I've had my phone less than 24 hours and I get ready to go run some errands I put it in my purse like I have done a million times with every iPhone I've ever owned with no screen protector and I get home two hours later pull my phone out to to something and I have a scratch on the screen that is about 2cm long that is deep enough that I can't run off with Screen cleaner WTF!!!!

That looks amazing! I would love to do something similar. If you have a moment to share the steps you took to achieve that finish, I would be very grateful! Great work!
It appears my 7 can do the blurry background feature that is supposedly only available on the Plus!
I put the case in a baking dish, took freshly ground espresso in a filter and soaked the grounds in some water, squeezed out excess water, covered the case with the grounds, and allowed it to sit overnight. This morning I took it out and allowed it to dry a bit before I rubbed it with a small amount of Leather conditioner.

And a photo from today. Still can't believe how fast this phone is. I'm really impressed.
