Just received a refurbished iPhone 7 Plus from A Lab yesterday. Was told to drain the battery till 0% and full charge it to 100% straight without using the phone, so I did. After the full charge, I just unplug my phone and went to sleep. Standby time is at 10 hours, usage is at 12 minutes and my battery's currently at 97%, which seems really good? Heard that refurbished phones have new batteries, is it true?

Yes, they will have a new battery and a new outer casing.

32G enough?
personally no. 64GB already not sufficient for me. my 7+ is 128GB, already left 44GB available space. used it primarily for taking photos, videos on my holidays.

even basic usage 32GB is barely sufficient i think esp with all the apps and OS updates.

Normal for phone to drop 6% in 6 hours? Standby time and usage time the same despite flight mode.

6 hrs for 6% is normal. It's already very good. You expect it not to drop at all? Sorry our battery technology is not so advance yet.

32G enough?

Yes, if you seldom have videos or games inside. I have a few friends with 32GB, more than enough for their usage even if they take a lot of photos with it.

It depend on your usage to be honest.

32G enough?

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.
