Week 41 iPhone 7 NO HISSING

I have a week 41 iPhone 7 plus and it has the hissing. It's not noticeable unless I put my ear up very close to the back and even then, it's not too bad. I can hear the white noise during a silent video though. It's bad at max volume :(.

if you have to put it up to your ear to be able to hear to even notice it then that's ok but to hear white noise in video is fustrating, but ask yourself how many videos will you be doing in total silience, my phone is just like yours but I'm to afraid to try for better cause with apple you never know what your gonna get, one thing is for sure apple has got a lot of explaining to do.

Just picked up my Sim-Free Model Black 256 GB today. It is Week 41 and No hissing to be heard at all. Same goes for my Jet Black (though it's week 39 for that one).

What about white noise issues when recording in quiet areas?
 
Those that say they have no white noise or hissing noise, I wonder if it's true or if they're not sure what they're listening for. No disrespect meant, I hope it's true. I'm waiting on Apple to decide if theyre going to send me my 3rd phone. This has been disappointing. I've had about every phone starting with the first, and have never returned or exchanged one until now.

I'm getting confused with he white noise, when I record a video in a quite room and then play it back i do hear a mild hissing sound but i think that sound is normal cause my iPhone 6 did that, is the hissing noise that ppl are complaining about really loud and can they be heard without the phone being held up super close to the ear? I never even knew about this till I read it here so i held the phone close to my ear like litterally glued to my ear and that was the only way I was able to hear it, so would that mean it's ok? i just want to know what the severity of the noise is for the ppl who are having this issue.

I've got a week 41 JB black 256, ran 3D mark multiple times , even with ear to the back, almost silent. Had a launch day matte black, hissing was quite loud.

All phones will have some sort of noise made by the CPU when pushed. My 6S had a feint ticking sound, my 7 plus matte black was quite loud , my week 41 is quiter than my 6S, which I consider excellent.

People who say they cannot hear a thing at all.....may have different hearing thresholds. Some noise will be made when a cpu is stressed .

My biggest complaint is I hear it when recording video.

Why is it if someone can't hear a thing have something wrong with them. Maybe, just maybe some of these phones DON'T make noise.

I just took a video of the TV playing in my room and I can still hear the hissing noise and it's quite distracting. I need to get this phone exchanged.

Only speaking from experience. I tested 15 devices at home from a wide range of manafacurers and all made some noise.

Also nothing wrong with people. I said we all have different hearing thresholds , hearing is subjective person to person.

If your phone is 100% silent congrats. I've never owned a 100% silent iPhone , and I've just tested each generation I've got at home as I keep my old devices .

Just google CPU noise, it's explained
