I lost the iPhone 7 recently and found it a couple days ago, it still blew me away how premium the device felt with the wonderful matte black finish, and it was just so comfortable in the hand.
@@flowerofthesouth it’s not my main phone and I left it for a long time and eventually lost track of it, when cleaning around I found it sitting on a messy table
i relate to what u said about taking a break from new technology. sometimes the old tech has a better feel to it even tho it’s less features. it also helps me enjoy life more
My first iPhone was the 6. Unlike many people, mine didn’t bend or gave me any problems. I felt in love with iOS thanks to it and it will be always my favorite phone 😊
@@MrMaximino92 Never knew that, but I can believe it. The size of the 6 plus was very noteworthy at that time because people were still used to 4” iPhones, so an iPhone with a 5.5” screen was huge.
Loved the 7. Especially the matte black aluminum one you have. Had the same one, and it felt like a sleek and powerful piece of tech back when I had it. Great speakers, great color accurate display, good chip even years after the release, and great point and shoot camera that took great natural looking low light photos. So nice
Ahhh, I love the iPhone 7. It was my first iPhone that I bought way back April 2020 (the start of pandemic). I remember how obsessed I am with it that I take pictures of literally anything everyday and post the photos on my stories because the camera was just so good. I didn’t have a nice camera back then with my previous 3 Androids so maybe that’s why I fell in love with it and also the fact that I never experienced major lags on my iPhone 7 makes me so impressed with it. Though the battery wasn’t the best at that time but I still pretty much enjoyed it especially the camera and performance. Now my sister owns it and I upgraded to iPhone 11 but I can say that it’s still kicking and it’s still a solid phone up to this day. 😁
I pray brands will bring back this old form factor back as an option, but like in 5.5" size for a bigger battery. Phones are becoming more and more vital for productivity in all walks of work and there's still a lot of people who just can't adjust to the current edge to edge display designs. They want something reliable - usable with one hand when busy at work, battery lasts long enough for a full working day & will not hiccup when assigned with multitasking(think of rugged laptops). I genuinely feel like if someone revives such a phone with modern specs, it'll definitely a hit.
Shucks Im late! You know Wil, I actually am feeling nostagic about your video also. I used to watch tons, I mean TONS of videos including you and other tech tubers when I was so broke and cant even afford an iphone. I am so curious about how it feels to own 1. Until now that I have bought my very own first ever Iphone, I am so thankful to you especially for being enthusiastic, honest reviewer and overall fun person to watch. I am really proud to say I bought the 11 3months ago because of your recommendations. So even I dont have an old Iphone, I will surely still go back to this phone if ever I upgrade to higher units. Nothing beats first iphone. Saludos!
@@BubVisuals I really do. Wish I can support you further but things are pretty tight for me and my family rn but I will surely do if ever I get better opportunities✨
iOS support doesn’t matter. Only app support does and apps usually support an iOS version for 3 years after or even longer. Plus, you’ll get iOS security updates. Even tik-tok still supports iOS 10! People need to quit being so paranoid about this.
I gave my iPhone 13 to my wife and started using my old iPhone 7 since a few months. Well it gets my job done corporate calls, emails etc no problem at all and I absolutely love the home button.
I had an iPhone 7 as a “backup” and spare phone, i jailbroke my old daily driver and a few apps didn’t work anymore, so I carried both an iPhone 7 and my old XR, and it was great for a couple of months before I eventually decided how much I just find the 4.7” screen size mediocre and just about bare-able so I ended up going to a 6S Plus, later on only to smash in the screen on accident (fell off a chair, while having a cheapo Amazon display) and have to use a broken iPhone 7 to repair it. Traded that iPhone 7 with a friend for an iPhone X, don’t miss it tho, I have an iPhone 8 and a few newer iPhones, and my current 11 Pro Max honestly does the job better than any of my other iPhones ever had.
I traded in my iPhone 7 and iPhone X to get iPhone 13 minis for me and my wife. Loved both of them, though. My favorite iPhone of all time that I’ve owned, however, is the 6s and my favorite Android is the OnePlus One.
I recently bought a iPhone 13 Pro Max moving from an iPhone 6S. Honestly it’s just too big for me so I might sell it and just buy an iPhone 7 to keep as my daily driver.
I would say that this phone can be usable until the new update because after that it can only work with a jailbreak. Otherwise it can be used as a back up phone
I am still using it as my main phone, it does everything i need so i dont find a reason to upgrade,maybe i will get the xr in a year or so im not buying a new iphone because they are super expensive, the new iphone 14 will start at 800$, something that i cant afford.
@@georgefotiadis3787 I have the iPhone 12 but thinking of getting it as a 2nd phone so I don’t overuse this one. Would it be good in that situation? Thank you for the response.
My Dad has an Iphone 7. He got it when my mother kept complaining about how she liked Android better. We gave her the lowest end Samsung at the time and she loves it. Miy father has all the old Iphones I had been a 6 plus that he got exchanged from Apple. He got my mother's 7 but it is sim locked with my famlies carrier. So he can't use it when he goes overseas. The only thing that is bad on the phone is the battery life. He ends up using my old first gen Ipad Air when charging his 7. He loves to play solitaire on them for hours. I would give him my XS but I am going to keep it another year and get a laptop for working at home. I my get a newer Ipad because my old Samsung tablet is starting to go out. It my be my Christmas gift for myself this year.
I have been using the Iphone 7 from November 2019 until today I would continue to use it for 3+ years if It wouldn‘t have 71% battery health (changed the battery 3 times alteady, Wifi Connection issues, bugged Bluetooth, partially no service (maybe broken antennas), Volume turns itself to max Bug and many more I often like to use things as long as I can but mine is not very reliable and hard to use in day to day life especially for school Im now switching to my mums Iphone Xr might seem pathetic but thats a huge upgrade for me But Im watching this video with my spare 6s Plus that works with no problems and Im going to continue to use it
The only problem is that is nor geting iOS 16,i Use iphone 7 for about 4 years,i have iOS 15.7 and ITS running Great But i think it can run iOS 16 but Apple dont suported it because battery life would be bad
the iphone 7 is my current phone for the time being since I was mugged and I'm broke af, haven't used and iphone since the 4s/5 era, I'm shocked by how much more I prefer android these days, I guess the iphone 7 is good enough to keep me connected but barely anything else
Gonna be using 2 phones. Gonna be using my Samsung Galaxy A32 5G and Gonna be using my moms old iPhone 7, as I cant decide between apple and android. My mom as my old iphone se 2020.
Cool video... I think this is the last Iphone most ppl would dare rock it naked without a case... the aluminum back gives that sense of security... if I had this I'll definitely just stick a screen protector on it n just rock it caseless..... Been awhile since i felt that sleek sexy body (I meant the phone)
And Also, I Have My IPhone 7 Before, Since When The Battery Hits To 100%, I Accidentally Plugged It Back In, It Overheats, And It Completely Dies On Me
