The editors didn't like
No headphone jack
Design iconic
But equally dated
Bulky size compared to 5.5inch Androids
Slow charging
Expensive SIMfree price
App design is a bit hard to navigate
No audio jack
Storage can't be expanded
Same basic design with the same basic quirks as the 6 and 6S
Including the camera bump
The rounded slippery corners
And large width and height relative to the size of their screens
IOS and its ecosystem
Four or five years of software updates
And Ap
Removal of headphone jack inconvenient
Screen resolutions low compared to competition
Same design as before
Lacks a 3.5mm headset socket
Jet black model is prone to scratches
Similar looking to iPhone 6 and 6s designs may bore those hoping for a new look
Headphone jack replaced by Lightning port
No headset port
Expensive
Still super expensive
No expandable storage
Many of the "groundbreaking" features have been on Android phones for a while
Relatively low resolution for a 5
5-inch display
Can't charge and listen to wired headphones at the same time
No home button
Not shatter-proof
No support for higher quality camera optics
No headphone jack means you can't charge using wired headphones
Design is nice but dated. iOS 10 picks up a ton of new features but the UI needs more user customization
Removal of headphone jack would deem most of your audio devices incompatible and would need an adapter to work
Design feels only a refined version of the iPhone 6S
There's no standard headphone jack
You'll have to use Lightning
Or the included adapter
Or go wireless. Design is showing its age
As competing phones squeeze a 5.5-inch screen into smaller
Sexier bodies. And it's really expensive
Fingerprint
Scratch or smudge magnet depending on your color
Buttons not easily reachable
32GB model is pointless for a phablet
Pricey
Still too much beze
Missing headphone jack will annoy some
The lack of a headphone jack has been overstated
But it's still an annoyance for the time being. Without the duallens system
The iPhone 7 lags behind its larger brother in photography. The form factor for both iPhones is pretty much the same as two year
The lack of headphone jack might be a problem for many users
4K videos and low-light shots have average quality
Not all dualcamera features available at launch time
Plus model still feels a little too big for many uses
Missing headphone jack will take a little getting used to
Poor quality secondary (stereo) speaker
Third year with the same design
No headphone jack which didn't bother me but is a point of contention for some.
Noticeable smearing of fine detail and luminance noise at base ISO
Dualcam of limited use in low light
HDR mode less efficient with tele lens
No manual control or Raw options in stock camera app
Camera settings only accessible via iOS settings app
Sl
Strong luminance noise in low-light conditions
Exposure and white balance adaptation are sometimes unstable
Slight frame shifts are noticeable indoors and with walking movement

Portrait Mode is very impressive, Doubled storage tiers, Speedy performance
Same design, Camera still sticks out at the back
The iPhone 7 Plus has plenty to be pleased about - waterproofing, a twin-lens camera, a specs bump, stereo audio, a customisable Home button - but is there anything here to get passionate about?You might want the newer 8 Plus or X, but the 7 Plus still ha...
We've yet to run our full set of benchmarks on the Note 8, but initial impressions are very good. It's capable of great photos, battery life should be stellar and performance excellent.The iPhone 7 Plus has been out for virtually a year, so in some ways i...

The Note 8 is a fine phablet with premium specs and a price tag to match. In fact, on a number of specification match-ups - screen size, screen sharpness, RAM, battery capacity - it's streets ahead of the 7 Plus, which is just as expensive; and in most ar...

While we've mentioned the iPhone 7 throughout our review, the real decision is between the iPhone 7 Plus and the OnePlus 5 as both smartphones have similar builds and features. At £449 the OnePlus 5 is a whopping £270 cheaper than the £719 iPhone 7 Plus w...
Apple has given the iPhone 7 Plus enough new features for it to be seen as the next generation iPhone, but it's a close run thing. If you currently have an iPhone 6S or 6S Plus you'll be much better off waiting for the iPhone 7S/iPhone 8 in 2017.For those...
The iPhone 7 Plus is definitely an impressive phone, although we're not in love with the fact that it's another reboot of 2014's design. With the S variant year on year it makes sense, as people are out of hte contract rhythm, but this time it doesn't fee...
Great build quality, Waterproofing, Amazing cameras, Super-powerful chipset
No 3.5mm headphone socket, No quick-charging capability
If you must buy an iPhone in 2016 the iPhone 7 Plus is the model to go for. The standard iPhone 7 model is just, well… disappointing on too many fronts. Battery performance isn't great, the display pales in comparison to cheaper Android alternatives and...

In a number of key areas, notably camera and screen specs, the Xperia XZ Premium beats the iPhone 7 Plus pretty comprehensively - at least on paper. Whether it will provide a better overall user experience, or can back up its specs with real-world perform...
