Have we covered the fact that it doesn't have a headphone jack yet? Because I hate that.

Of course the iPhone 7/7 Plus has a headphone jack.

Actually, it has two different kinds. One is called a Lightning port. The other is a 3.5mm headphone jack at the end of a Lightning to 3.5mm headphone jack adapter, which is included in the box with every purchase.

3D touch still has one major issue, you have no visual indication whatsoever where it will work, so you either try-and-error or have to memorize all places that are important for you.

The iPhone 7s top features: It sets Apple tech back 10 years, looks the same as the last 5 phones, and still can't do as much as a Samsung.
