Hmm them videos have got me having second thoughts on my 7 pre order 
The dual-lens camera on the Plus looks like a total gimmick to be honest and certainly not worth getting a Plus just for that. Last year it had the stabilisation which was a worthwhile feature but of course that's now percolated down to the smaller phone.

I don't see the dual camera being useless. Digital zoom is useless, tele lense is not. It really makes a difference.
"Telephoto" (it is nowhere near telephoto, but more like "normal" lense) makes a huge difference for portraits and such, which will look much more natural. Lack of OIS is a shame, but it is still a huge plus for the situations when there is plenty of light.
This is from arstechnica's review and the resolution difference between tele-camera and regular is immense.

Does it matter for you? That I can't say, but for me it would.

Still waiting on my 7plus in Jet Black from EE and I have zero idea when it will turn up... told it would be Friday but I'm certainly not the only one in this boat! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for next week!
Just got my Watch 2 in space grey yesterday too and I'm suffering through using it with my old iPhone 5 since I sold my 6... it's really tragic!

Looks like the telephoto lens does not have ois and to be honest looks little pointless as the quality when using it isn't very good.
Make your own minds up
I think this reviewer is a total idiot.
Really can't stand him.
I find it hard to believe but it appears that our new phones are faster than i5 MacBook Airs!

I've been reading about the new radios and one thing I've noticed is that the reception on my 6S+ is superior to that on my 7+. Has anyone noticed any reception issues? I'm hoping that it might be fixed by software in an update soon, otherwise I will be returning my phone.

My husband and I are both on EE and my 7 plus shows less signal than the 6s Plus.

Regardless are you going to let that opinion of the human get in the way of factual information ?
The audio on the iphone is awful - and no OIS on the zoom lens? WHUT ?
