I know this thread is a little older, but I just returned an unlocked 7 Plus because it made a pretty bad hissing noise in videos, even when it wasn't completely quiet. Does every iPhone 7 do this? I've now been through 3 of them (2 AT&T and 1 Unlocked). This is honestly the only phone on the market that I want, but the video recording is terrible. We have one month old twins and I don't really want to ruin the first videos of them because of some hissing/popping noise in the background.
FWIW, I never noticed the processor hissing during just regular use - but it was absolutely present on videos.
