Techie talk? 7 year old technology? In this day of technology age, that screen is no longer gorgeous. That's a fanboy response of you.
People who don't hang out in tech forums will probably not view tech devices in the same manner as we do, and yes, the screen of the iPhone 7 is still gorgeous to "me". I've had the device and a part of me still wish that I had kept it. For my needs, it was sufficient, and I'm the type of person who tries to use all that the device offers so I'm sure a non-techie will more than likely be pleased with it, depending on their needs. Anyway, that is my 2¢....
