Looks like someone ordered an iPhone 7 and is prepping for its arrival.

Looks like demand for the 7 is less. There is availability to reserve online a 7 jet black 128gb at the local store (technically I was unable to because I have a business account).

Verizon is giving pretty good money for old phones, but they have to work with intact screens, etc.
We got something like $200 for a 5s just to upgrade to a 6s (for my daughter, who wanted a Rose Gold 6s over a 7). |

If Verizon stores are giving a 200 dollar credit for 5s to iPhone 7 on 2 yr subsidized plans I may have get a free iPhone 7.

with a two year contract, almost anyone can get one for free now with a trade in of a iphone 6 or up.. there is a 5/5s cost of about 200$ but pretty much anyone can now get a free iphone 7 with 24 month lock in, (with 350$ ETF)
Its the new subsidy. Makes sense for the carriers, but needs to be watched and understood closely by analysts and carriers as the iphone 8 will be the real revolutionary device and by next year nearly 2 in 3 customers will be on a 2.5+ year old device. |
Renewed Sprint's iPhone Forever lease. 22/mos and a 128gb Matte Black is ordered. Assume will be waiting up to a month for it to actually arrive.

Received my 7 in black today. Phone is quite sexy.

I'm not. I usually upgrade on the S product launch, but the lack of headphone jack on the new iPhones is a deal killer for me. It's DRM for headphones, and it pisses me off. I have some very nice Grado headphones I like using and don't want to carry an additional adapter to use headphones.
I have been a bit away from the audiophile scene but regard my experience with Grado fondly. |
Friend's iPhone 7 Plus on AT&T wouldn't connect to any towers for a few hours. Went to Apple Store. They tried to restore it. It bricked.
And they don't have anymore currently... lulz |
Looks like this phone has an issue with this weird hissing sound
|
At least it doesn't explode. :D

Is the Jet Black finish similar to the 3G/3Gs?
It appears to look that way, no? |

It appears to look that way, no? The finish strikes me a ridiculously fragile. The two models I have seen [each store is given only a single iPhone 7 in gloss black for display] were already all beat to hell after just two days of being on display. I have to think that the black will also rub off the buttons very quickly under normal use. I suppose that if you are going to put the phone in a full case that won't matter as much, but then why get the gloss black in the first place? #bringbackspacegray |
I like the current grey, but not the white bezel face they paired it with. I prefer a streamlined front look and don't care for the white front vs the seamless look with the two black models.
