[Official] iPhone 7 (Plus) Discussions

Anyone here have lens flare problem?

Mine seems quite bad when I focus or aim at the light bulbs etc. there are one or two big green dots

nope, 32GB is not enough for me, let alone 128GB.

Both my iPhone 7 and 7 Plus 256GB and for my 7 Plus already used more than 128GB.

I have about 40GB+ of videos and pictures from whatsapp.
took a lot of pictures and videos when I was in school last year and friends send me pictures as well.

I carry my past iPhones from 3GS, 4, 4s, 5, 5s, 6+, 6s+ data over to the new iPhone that's why I needed a larger space.

The reason why it's not enough because you have poor storage management. Period.

This. I owned a 16gb iphone with 2gb to spare and now have 10-15gb spare on a 32gb iphone. I have few gigs of music too. Don't understand why people now act as thought 32gb is like 32mb lmao

Some people restore to the new phone with ton of their old photos and videos dated many years back. It's so far back that they won't even touch or even worse, notice their existence for some. And some people install apps that they never use. Their phone in this case, became just another back-up storage for them.

I have tons of musics but i do regular back up of photos and videos to my computer harddisk. My 64GB 6S still have ard 25GB of space left.

nope, 256 GB is enough.
but of course every iPhone which Apple release, I will definitely go for the highest storage options.

so if Apple comes out 512GB for iPhone 10, I will definitely go with the 512GB.

I keep my songs in Apple lossless formats and they easily take up 160GB. Add a few more apps and pics and it easily fills up the 256Gb.

Let's say a single lossless album is 1GB size. That is 160 albums. Big storage phones are good for people who just want to dump everything inside without proper management.

I have used apple leather cases for years and stopped. Reason being it is expensive, it gets discoloured almost immediately, and lastly it does not last very long - the hard plastic core inside can break and the outside leather can come off after a while.

I switched to TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) transparent cases. These are not the soft silicone cases. I avoid silicone cases since they swell after a while and become lose fitting. TPU has the ideal properties for a phone casing (not too hard, can be transparent, wont swell, is really tough and is cheap) and I will be sticking with it for a long time to come.

32 GB really like 32 MB now.

I am happy later I switch to 128 GB. In this year new iPhone I will surely pick 128 GB or 256 GB only.

My 4374 songs already occupied me 38.95 GB

My games occupied me 18.59 GB

Only this two already occupied me 57.54 GB

This had nothing to do with proper management, if keep deleting data or unstop thinking shall I keep it or not does't means have proper management.

Now games is very big (anytime around 1 GB per games and up to 3 GB also have) and songs is everyday enjoyment with different songs for different enjoyment and some people like me prefer offline listening than stream.

Big space = freedom, small space = no freedom

I am using one, not bad but it is expensive.

Slightly cheaper and better maybe is nomad case.

Just found an alternative Music Player which is kind of cool with better sorting and options.

Marvis+ player is beauty with big cover image. Really like it.

I am new to the iphone world. Unfortunately, I was duped into buying (trading with my other phones) a stolen iphone 7 plus which has activation lock and the seller has disappeared. Besides, making a police report, what should i do?

I managed to capture a quick image of his face on my car cam though. Will this help in any way?

Also, if this is a stolen set, how can i return it to the original owner?
