I think you missed the most important one for me! I'm already at the 64gb price point. If they go to 128gb at that price point I'll be thrilled! So that's the best feature if you ask me!

Definitely a matte black or piano black color for me! I've gone from a black 4, white 5, gold 6, and I am excited to go back to a black iPhone after 4 years!
 
Dual lens camera
"Piano Black" glossy colour
256GB option (not sure if i will get it tho might be a little over kill)
Water RESISTANCE (no phone is fULLY waterproof)
True tone display
haptic feedback home button.

I think all of what we have seen leak out, looks good. I know some people are a little annoyed that there wont be a re-design, but I'm happy with the features we have seen leak out so far, i think it may push a lot of people who are still using an iPhone 6 and or 6 Plus to upgrade. I know i will be!

I couldn't care less about it looking different to my 6S plus. Initially the leaks sounded like it wasn't much of an upgrade but the latest leaks make it a worthy upgrade. I think Apple will do a great job of selling the phone at the keynote like they always do.

The dual speakers should interesting. Otherwise the color and the A10 Chip.
I don't know what to do with A10 chip my iPhone 6s plus and iPhone SE are blazing fast (both running ios 10 beta) i think the new piano black color and wide color (or true tone)display like 9.7 ipad pro will be fine(if it comes out to be true) :)

That was my point, over the last few months people have been complaining on this forum that the iPhone 7 doesn't look any different and that it's not a worthy upgrade "Apple are doomed" "Apple have stopped innovating" "Tim Cook should go" and don't get me wrong, people are entitled to their opinions! I just think most have overreacted far too early, and now it seems like the iPhone 7 will be a great upgrade after all, which i kind of suspected anyway.

It's sounding like a better upgrade than the 6 plus to 6s plus and I did that upgrade. The 7 plus seems to be a no brainer now.

Yea, I'm using a 6 Plus at the moment and I'm looking forward to the 7 Plus. I think if the rumours and "leaks" are true then it will be a great upgrade, this one in particular sounds great, being able to record 4K at 60 frames per second, which apparently is not available in any smartphone on the market today, of course it could be that the person in this article is lying.

The new features will likely be a bit buggy, it's a historical fact. Waiting until next year's iPhone 7S will be a very smart move. Just like all other S models that will be the one to have.
 
What about optical image stabilization on the 7? Is it going to be found in a smaller phone or must we buy the largest 5.5" screened phone on the market to have it? Many don't / won't carry around such a large, unwieldy behemoth. It's not that 5.5" is the problem; it's that the phone is needlessly large--larger than all other 5.5" screened phones.

Rumors are that regular model(4.7) will also get OIS this time and dual camera only on 5.5 model
 
After having Android phones for the past 6 years I'm finally going to my first iPhone. I will be switching from my Samsung S7. Having an iPhone will better match up with the iPad I bought late last year. I've been smitten with iOS ever since the 9.3 update but I skipped the 6S/SE because the camera hardware was subpar (no OIS and small sensor/aperture). iPhone 7 will correct those flaws, so now I can finally jump aboard the iOS bandwagon.

I'm selling my Samsung S7 and going iPhone.

Rumours are pointing to the 7 getting a bigger sensor with optical image stabilization, but only the 7 Plus getting the dual lens camera system which mean the 7 Plus will still have the better camera but the camera in the 7 should be superior to what's in the 6s Plus now.

Significant battery upgrade to the 4.7 model is what would tempt me.
Battery life on my 6s has been decent, but I agree that more is always better right? Rumours are pointing to a larger battery in both the 7 and 7 Plus compared to the 6s/Plus but not significantly larger and we won't really know how that translates into actual battery life given the new features/processor until someone can actually test it. Given that the screen sizes and resolutions are the same and the batteries are (probably) larger I suspect we will see a small increase in battery life.

You did NOT supply a NONE Option...

NONE
What feature would excite you?
 
I hate that you can only pick one lol. I chose the dual lens camera but i am also excited about the water resistance, new storage options, force touch home button and the new black color :)
