[Official] iPhone 7 (Plus) Discussions

[nickywu]

My 256 Gb is my phone, my photo album, and my ipod. And I use lossless formats. So 256gb is nice.
If you only use it as a phone with a few apps or none, 32GB is ok.

I totally agree. 256GB is god sent

I fully loaded all my photos and iTune music library into my 256GB iPhone 7 and still have enough to store my Spotify saved albums in order to play offline

If you buy the smallest, it will be because you want to save ..
If you outgrow your current needs, you can't sell that phone without losing money.
So plan ahead and think about your needs, for now and for the future.

thank you and all the others for your input.

after much consideration, i will get the 128gb instead!

Lighting earpod sound better than cable earpod

Idk if you guys noticed the diff.

The iPhone 7 now comes with stereo speakers. One on the bottom right and one at the receiver spot, hence the better sound quality. Step in the right direction and pretty solid for a HHP

U mean the speakers or the headphone(lightning) jack?

headphone lighting..

 

[Conan1986]

headphone lighting..

erm, placebo perhaps? All scientific reviews points to the sound quality being on par if not a little worse (indiscernible to normal people) as compared to 6s.

many people actually raised this issue up with the new device being harder to "Detect GPS in Pokemon Go" as compared to their older device.

I believe this issue actually stems from the fact that older device have already "synchronized" or has cache with the more frequent detection of GPS signal making some software adjustment so that it keeps getting signal even when you're in a building.. I might be very wrong though but it seems to be what's happening as a previously reliable phone (as in no GPS issue during Pokemon Go hunting) showed these issue after I wiped it and set it up as new

query on my gf behalf as she is intending to recontract her line and she yet to make up her mind on getting either 32gb or the 128gb

what size can you recommend for a lady like user ? she is more of taking pictures (selfie) and some other pictures too , bit of video and rarely use the phone for music.

32 is enough if she syncs often. if she's a photo/video hoarder and lazy to keep transferring, get 128 better

 

[athenodorus]

girls usually lazy to transfer one la. 128gb is a safe option.

128 GB is the most comfortable storage size. No need everytime worry no space.

definitely 128. need to take into consideration that the OS already take up a few gb already. the photos itself is also more than 5MB each.
