No 3.5mm phone socket - No buy.
I wonder what phone you will be using 2 years from now?

Did you actually read the Verge review? If you think that was blessed by Apple then Apple should fire their PR department.I'll wait for an objective review. These reviews are well vetted by Apple. Do you think they'd let somebody borrow a phone a week before launch and allow them to slander it? Would a reviewer even do this if they could? Apple wouldn't let you have it so early next year in that case.
The purpose of these reviews is to build excitement and confirm positive thoughts. The same way Apple have advertised the phones through various talk shows; e.g., get Jimmy Kimmel (who I really like btw) to talk about it and gain more publicity.
Just for easy reference:

I hate to be "that guy" but Steve Jobs would've never released a phone with software that was "incomplete"
He also wouldn't let almost 2 years slide between Mackbook Air and Macbook Pro updates.
helped if the photographer used the same spot to focus on.
Can read too much from that.

"But compared to the iPhone 6S, the iPhone 7 is a step improvement, not a major leap."
"The iPhone 7 and 7 Plus clearly hold their own, but I don’t think they blow the pack away."
And it comes from 'The Verge"Nothing but the hype (fake one) on the new cameras

I wonder if the rumor was true that certain major delivery carriers were stock piling phone at certain hubs across the country to make delivery easier. Not sure if that possible or not.

Yup. It's called a media embargo.Just went to Youtube and sub box is filled with iPhone 7 and 7 Plus reviews, all at once.
Was there an embargo or something?

They do not have to invest in anything, if i want to send multiple photos from photos i can, but in mail i have to select it one by one......so they just need to implement in mail what they have in photos....and no need for a file systemThat's probably because mailing attachments is a dated work flow that is not a part of the future. Now consider iOS doesn't have a file system, it would mean Apple would have to invest heavily in supporting dated work flows for something that's never going to really work great.
Or anyone that doesn't care about headphone sound quality.

Why do people always say they're not "essential upgrades"? Do they think everyone upgrades yearly?
This is a fantastic upgrade for anyone NOT on a 6S.
Apple always gets extra attention.I'm curious does every Android OEM phone get judged on whether it's an "essential upgrade"? Did reviewers ask this question of the Galaxy S7 and Note 7? Or is it only iPhones where this question matters?
You'd be better off checking a few reviews because most people on here won't be that interested in those phones.I'm curious does every Android OEM phone get judged on whether it's an "essential upgrade"? Did reviewers ask this question of the Galaxy S7 and Note 7? Or is it only iPhones where this question matters?
Meanwhile, T-Mobile's John Legere is reporting "phenomenal" sales of the device, about quadrupling those of the iPhone 6!
The Verge said non-adopters "won't actually be missing out on much" if they don't get an iPhone 7, which it described as a "transitional step to a vision of the future"

See you in 2017 Apple.
There is absolutely no guarantee of that, it could end up sounding worse if a lower spec DAC is used in a set of cheap Lightning headphones.You know you will get better sound with lighting headphones?

I didn't mention Apple headphones.You don't have to use the Apple headphones.
You joined MR in 2006. You should really know better than that.
The early iterations of iPhone OS were terribly buggy. Plus you mention "incomplete" software, yet the first iPhone didn't even have an App Store. Or video recording. Or even copy/paste, for crumb's sake.
