The only BIG reason to get the 7 is the Waterproofing. That is big (should of had it 2 years ago)... I know the camera is a little better and the processor a little faster, but that is hardly a reason to give up your 6S or 6S+.
We lose the headphone jack and gain waterproofing.. Not a good swap for me. I hear people saying that if you had anything older than the 6 than you should upgrade, and I agree, but to the 6S or 6S+/ You can get them for a great price and none of the made up drama of actually getting one.
This is a big swing and a miss for Apple, I do not put it past them to put out a phone that is so underwhelming that the Iphone 8 that will undoubtedly come out next year will seem utterly amazing and revolutionary compared to the 7. They may be purposely playing the expectations game and saving the BIG news for another year.
I applaud Apple for the fake shortages and the manufactured delays to keep up the demand, but unless you just have to have the NEWEST Iphone as a fashion statement, stick with what you got today and wait for an actual new iphone next year.
Kinda agree on most... I'm thinking next year phone will be improvement on 7, so may be called 7s/7s+... If I upgrade, with the exception of the ip5, I go for the S model..(got 6s+ 128gb in April)..they usually seem to work out any issues with the new model on the S. although, I won't be upgrading probably for another 2 years..so 8s+ or whatever it is...
