I read on the Verge or Engadget (can't recall which) that the jet black unit they had got scratched in less than 24 hours of usage.
Plus they mentioned that it, to a certain extent, looks like plastic (think 5C plastic). So, if anything, I'd recommend staying away from it unless you really like it.

Using case defeats the purpose of getting the Jet Black la haha.
I can imagine future users. Only removing the cases to show people their shiny new phone - then after that put back in case lol.

I rather go for Black and use without case

To each his own

I guess I'm one of the minority.
I think the matte black looks more like an aftermarket job.
Am at the Apple Store now and the matte black is such a fingerprint magnet as well.
I'll post pics later.

Home button feels great man. I thought it was gonna suck but after trying it in person I must say it's really easy to get used to it.

Tried out the i7 and 7 Plus for 30 minutes. What I can conclude is:

- Not much changes compared to 6S.
- Slightly speedier than 6S.
- Pics taken are more true to the actual color.
- Screen on 7 is warmer compared to 6S.
- Home button works great. The haptic feedback actually works really well. I got used to it after 15 minutes.
- Personally the matte black is a fingerprint magnet. I'm not a fan. If you're like me who likes space gray, the closest thing to space gray is now silver.
- The dual speaker set up is now really loud.
- The 2x zoom on the 7+ really isn't anything to shout about. Unless you're always zooming when taking pics (who does that?!), this is more of a gimmick than of real use.

There's really nothing much else to comment since it's so similar to the 6S. I've updated to iOS10 so my 6S is really snappy.
For those who wants to compare Space Gray to Black, I know you seldom see them being side by side so feel free to see the images I took below. Jet Black wasn't on display so I can't comment much but I've heard its really prone to scratches (and looks like the plastic 5C).

These are purely my personal opinions. I just want to share with y'all my views and hopefully help out a potential buyer. Call me an iFag if you want to. I've been using the iPhone ever since the first but this time round, I'm still trying to figure why I want/need the iPhone 7.

It is very easy to press. Almost as good as a touch button on android devices.
And Apple gives you 3 options of how strong you want the haptic feedback to be.
Level 1 is the lightest - which means it only vibrates lightly when you press the home button. Level 3 is the strongest. You can actually feel the whole phone vibrating more here.
I'm OK with Level 2 lol.

For me, I prefer i7 because of size. The plus models have always been too large for my hand.
Optical zoom is useless for me but Apple will introduce this new bokeh effect for the 7 Plus camera in the next update. I think those who like photography with lots of bokeh effects will appreciate this feature.

I completely agree with you. In my opinion, my favorite colors in sequence are:

Silver > Rose Gold > Gold > Black > Jet Black

I think this is the exact opposite for most

Yup. Because it is now not a button. There is no click. You can only push on it as if you were trying to activate 3D touch on your screen.
But it's way easier and more sensitive than the screen. Push little bit can already. And it will vibrate to let you know you have pushed it. Hope that makes sense. Haha.

Yeah bokeh effect actually similar to those on Huawei P9, Honor 8, etc. It's actually for ppl who are not good in photography - so when they take photo, although you're not a pro, but end result will look pro

Exactly bro. Diff ppl diff wants/needs. That's why I was sure to add *my personal opinion* at the end. Or else kena bash from others

I guess in terms of color, people should just get what they like best. Some of my colleagues like gold. But because the new Jet Black was so hyped up and used in all the ads, they feel like it's more famous/glamorous so they end up getting the Jet Black, which is what they don't really like, but what society thinks is cool. Messed up. But alahh, suka hati la dia

Yeah man. U gotta really test it out to see if you like it. But for sure you'll get used to it la after awhile
If you use Android before you will get it

Save yourself the hassle and wait another 2 weeks

See my post. It should give you an idea.

Yeah sorry - I was referring to the part where you said you did not know how black BLACK was. It's pretty black. Definitely not bright gray, not space gray, not gray. Just black.

Wow. lol. Supply and demand. Check it out. It may just blow. your. mind.

The 32GB iPhone 7 is approx. RM2980 after conversion.
If anyone want I can buy for you with a RM200 mark up

Omg bodo me. I totally forgot to indicate which country I converted from.
Hong Kong bro.

By the way, for those wondering how easily the iPhone 7 Jet Black scratches, see video below (spoiler: it's really REALLY fragile. even coins will start scratching it).

Ni mesti tidak buat homework ni.
Diff material la broo. See video above - the one I posted. Even cloth wipe also kena lol. Apple epic fail la this time.
