Barely. My previous 7+ was terrible - so bad that the hissing would ruin my recordings. This phone is exponentially better!

Yes. From pushing the phone too much. When you restore an iPhone and have all your photos and stuff downloaded. It's most likely still not done. It will still be restoring in the background. Mine was restoring for a week because I was never near wifi, heck when I turned off iCloud it said it still wasn't complete. Set this one up as new and bam. No hissing.
Apple SO ruined this launch. By the time I can get a 7+ it's going to be time to start hunting a 8 down. Smh
Specialist at my local store believes the inventory is being artificially manipulated.
Might be on to something.
Prior to the end of the fiscal quarter (9/24) supply was constrained but decent. Since that time it's gotten much harder.
Tin foil hat on: they stuffed in what they needed to make their Q4 numbers and are now creating demand. Knowing they will sell a ****-ton through holidays.
TC the supply chain guru.

Yeah, but it's not like Apple is on the verge of ruin and absolutely must have a strong 4th quarter. They are rolling in cash and still in demand.
Canceled my online order because stock is picking up. I just put a 128gb matte black Plus on hold. Good luck!
Best of luck to you all, I managed to get a 128 in JB in the UK, Brighton Store on Thursday. Felt like a privilege to finally get it!
