For sure a speck of dust in the camera lens can be seen as a minor imperfection...
And a very dim yellow screen, and disorder in showing battery life, and uneven gaps along the screen border that you can insert paper into, and of course the famous hissing sound... Aside from these very common minor inperfections, its the most perfect phone in the world:rolleyes:

Wow, so you inspected every iphone 7 out there and concluded every device has these issues?
Stick with android then ;)

I dont need to inspect all and I experienced all these problems, is that clear enough for you to understand? I think you are a true fan of apple and they will never down as long as client like you exists. Even they pick out a piece of crap from somewhere and delivers to true fans like you, you would love it more than anything in the world. God bless you.:)

Well, Iwaniwa, I have the 7 Plus and don't have ANY of the issues you wrote about. None. It's the best iPhone to date for me.
You are so blessed to have a perfect one! Treasure it coz you never know how your next one will be. You know you can't ask too much for apple's qc and consistency in recent years.

Interesting thing is that people who received a perfect phone never share pictures in here like those who whine a lot do. This is very likely to give readers an impression that perfect phones are only in words while defective ones are in real world and straight on front of your eyes. I really appreciate those who are lucky enough to own a perfect phone can share some pictures (especially of the screen) so that the rest disappointed consumers here can be encouraged with hope again.;)

You forgot to inspect my devices and millions of others that have no issues.
I like how you generalize though thinking we would all pay for something worthless.
Why did you bother registering and posting here if you hate Apple and the iPhone that much?

The defective numbers I have seen are far more than the good ones. Not only from my own experience but also from tons posts online. Actually, I have never seen a flawess one with my own eyes, except those displayed in apple shops.

So criticising the poor QC and product inconsistency means hate in your understanding? People dont agree to the poor quality apple delivers means people hate apple? How are these logics even related?

Why you bother to look for people who are not satisfied and quote and start arguements with them instead of just enjoy your satisfaction of this perfect product with your family or your friends or whoever. This world is not ruled by one stanfard. I dont think people would ever come after you and start a fight with you if you post 'I love my iphone and its so perfect', so why you bother after those people who are discussing about their defective ones?

Sorry, I crossed looked 2 comments and thought you were the one who said 'posting garbage' thing, but when I read your last post it was gone.

Anyway, no fight. Some people are satisfied while some people not. It doesnt mean hate. Why dont we just live in peace?

How are these logics even related in your dictionary? Are you in the 'You-must-agree-its-perfect-after-purchasing' club? Or 'In spite of all the defects, you should still love everything of it' club? Or 'Nothing-is-wrong-with-the-phone-it's-just-your-illusion' club? I believe you must be a very loyal member of either or all of these clubs.

It should be me who dont understand why you bother to look for people who are not satisfied and quote and start arguements with them instead of just enjoy your satisfaction of this perfect product with your mom or your friends or whoever.

If posting garbage means wasting time talking to people like you, yeah, then I was posting garbage.

I dont disagree that there will be defective units just like with every mass produced product out there.
I dont have any issues with mine and if I did I have a full year to let Apple take care of any issue like they always did in the past.
There are people that cannot be satisfied no matter what. They will return it a dozen times and look for the perfect iPhone.
If the Apple reps lets them they will go over 20-30 devices and find flaws in all of them. That's insanity.
Its just a phone, use it and dont look for tiny specs of dust, or any other crazy minor imperfection, yellow or white screen, different baseband chips or whatever other nonsense people stress and obsess about and wasting time, energy and keep returning back to Apple for replacements.
What is your point of joining this forum Monday and all you did was take part in complaining, arguing with members and posting negativity?
You have 14 days to return your device if you're not happy and a full 1 year warranty.
Its pretty simple, life is easy with some common sense you will live in peace;)
Focus on whats important in life and dont stress yourself over the little things.

I appreciate your easy-going mindset on viewing things. I agree that people with such mentality may live more happily. But you see, people are different, it is how this world is to be. Some people might be very particular and picky or whatever others may judge them, but their being so might also help to improve the standard of things. i.e. Steve Jobs.

Well, thats pretty much about what I would like to say. Good night.:apple:

I hear you, different personalities for sure.
Some people have more important things to worry about in life than the shade of the screen or if the back plate shows a hairline scratch if you hold it under the light up close and on a slight angle:D
Life it too short to worry or stress out over such things. Its a phone, use it and in about a year or so you'll most likely upgrade to a newer one.
Its not the end of the world;)

My 7 Plus is perfect. Unfortunately yours isn't. It happens. It's technology. It's not always

Congrats to you!

I have swapped 4 and all of them had a screen issue (yellow tint for all and 2 of which were uneven). Aside from screen issue, 3 of them had noticeable gap along the junction of screen and body, 2 had battery issues... So I finally keep one that has an even yellow screen and with good battery but also with a big gap. My bottom line is compromised. I know it's impossible to get a flawless one so have to live with one that is less defective. The QC for this year's new iPhones is really disappointing. I am quite shocked by the defective rate. Lol

I've had two iPhones. Got the 6s last year and did not experience any of the problems reported then. Got the 7+ this year and have not experienced any of the problems this year. Yes problems do exist, but the vast majority have no issues at all. If you find a problem in the first two weeks return it. I have exercised this right on other products and will on any product that allows me to (that is part of my buying decision also).

Actually, if Apple products were so bad on the QC side and "perfect" iPhones were as rare as you say, Apple would be out of business quite fast. Your comments smell of a droid troll. Maybe you should consider another forum to tromp?

Your comments smell of an 'Apple-is-always-perfect-anyone-denying-that-is droid-troll' holic. Why don't you go back to your parents to learn some manners before provocating strangers online?
[doublepost=1477593788][/doublepost]
I must have a defective one because mine is just fine iwaniwa.

PS: I'm 71 years old, so my fanboy days with any company, are way In the past. ;)
I won't take your words as irony and I'm happy for you, but whether you have a nice one doesn't do any help to those who have defective ones. Like all the defenders said, one has a defective device can't stand for all. I would like to quote that, one has a good device can't stand for all either.

Defenders like to say they are one of million users owning a perfect iphone 7, but those perfect phone users never show a picture of how a perfect iphone 7's screen looks like. What they do is looking in the forum and label people who criticise iphone7 as droid troll, obsession, etc. which is very mannerless and ridiculous. And if you do some search online, it's very easy to find out whether 'millions' is referring to problems or perfect phones.
 
I'm wondering if those who say their iPhone 7 Plus doesn't have a yellow screen are actually comparing it to a previous model iPhone. I am on my second phone because i return and order a new one instead of playing the Apple exchange game. Both of them have had a yellow screen compared to the iPhone 6S Plus and so have all the display phones I've seen.

I compared my 7 Plus to my 6s Plus. The 6s Plus had a bluer screen but my 7 Plus screen didn't look yellow at all, just a bit warmer.
 
I don't know anyone personally, including myself who's had any of the alleged common issues discussed on this forum. I'd say stop worrying and just get it. It's a great phone.

If you need to compare it to another phone to 'see' it then is it really an issue at all?
Surely it's only a problem if the screen looks yellow all the time, if you need to put it side by side with something else to even tell then it's hardly a problem is it.

Have a 7 Plus. Works completely fine :)

Much smoother than my 6S... and excels much better at multitasking. The portrait mode is dang impressive too as well as the stereo speakers. Can't go wrong.

Wery well said; Apple fans are also speculating on a revolutionary iPhone 8 when 1-Apple show they cannot produce a reliable iPhone 7
2-why should they bother to make a truly innovative iPhone 8 since they just removed the jack from the previous one, introduced a new colour, hid the antennae, which was well enough to trigger off a tremendous worldwide demand ?
