Poll: ** The iPhone 7 and 7 Plus Thread **

[Tunney]

Lack of an headphone socket will(IMO) put off "mainstream" buyers for this device. Who wants to ditch their £200 Bose cans for these air pods? (I have £200 Bose cans)

It comes with an adapter in the box. You don't have to ditch your current headphones.

Ok, thanks. Thought the adaptor was a £9 optional.

I think they are using this year to introduce some incremental changes before next year. If the rumors are true, next years phone could be pretty impressive

Well I've got 1 month left on three contract, and will probably elect for a 12 month sim, then maybe have a look at the 7s

Yeah might even match a Galaxy S6.

I don't understand with all that cash in the bank why the result is so pathetic.

 

[wildest_jjk]

What cases are people going for? I've been using a Knomo leather sleeve for the last couple of years on my 5S but not sure I trust myself with using the 7 with nothing protecting it when in my hands...

Shoo troll.. shoo. Go complain about a console or something.

Where are you getting that deal from? EEs cheapest 7+ 128gb contract is £60.99/month and £129.99 handset cost isn't it?

That link to moneysupermarket.com their mobile phone deals finder put in all your requirements and it finds all the deals that fit them from all UK vendors, a very useful resource.

Yeah. Sour because he can't afford a iPhone 7.

To high end.

Stick with your budget poor mans galaxy.

Well really I should say the same to you! Horses for courses and all that!

Eh?

I've got a matt black 7+ 128gb & black leather case on order. . .

What you been smoking. Mary J?

 

[matt100]

I mean it really doesn't matter! I mean to be fair I'm being tortured by an s7 edge until next Friday but some people love it!

I managed to sell my 6s Plus 64GB for £500 last night, so that's cheered me up a bit and makes the £820 for its replacement at least seem a little less crippling

I'll be getting another Ringke Fusion (clear). Used those since my 5s and I've always loved em. Provide pretty good protection and they're not stupidly bulky either.

Until you wish to charge you phone, and I think that's the main gripe. Plus it appears to be a greed orientated move from Apple rather than for the sake of pushing tech forward.

I have never charged my phone and needed to use the headphone jack. Personally.

I never needed use my headphone jack regardless of charging or not.

2 years on and my headphone jack is still a virgin.

I do when at work but I have a dock to mitigate the issue with the 7.

Lots of people flying on planes or travelling for hours on trains do this, it's where I would miss having the port the most.

Are there any accessories that allow both a 3.5mm jack *and* a charger? That would solve the issue although it's really clunky and something extra to forget/lose.

Belkin have a Lightning Audio + Power adapter which is apparently also compatible with the lightning to 3.5mm adapter so it can be done although I'm not sure if an all in one device is available yet

Not yet but there will an absolute flood of the maddest adapters you've ever seen. This is an absolute gift for the mad inventors of shenzhen!

So with the apple upgrade plan thing, after the 16th will you be able to go in any day and do it? I have to work on the 16th so it's impossible for me to get in there.
