QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ Nov 15 2016, 09:20 AM) You would be highly dissapointed when I tell u the left hand side of the iphone 7/7+ speaker vent is for aesthetic purposes only. There is no speaker in there.  Ya, but the ear piece as a 2nd speaker is pretty good. It's the loudest iPhone so far, which is nice. Previous iPhones were all rather underwhelming in the speaker department.

QUOTE(benny888 @ Nov 15 2016, 09:06 AM) Not for me....I had used all the iphone series except iP5s and presently ip7+ . Till now I am discouraged to use it as main daily phone purely due to its closed file system. Seriously Apple ecosystem doesn't really attract me. After nearly a month using the ip7+ daily I had now relegated it to be my secondary phone. I had tried each time to make it my daily driver but ended up dissapointed. It is a very good phone if one doesn't bother much about mail attachments, file management, sharing out of info on the phone. Yes I am one of those rare users !! I have to vouch what uncle said here. Been using iPhone since 3g version till 5, then change to Samsung S3 due to bore already with iOS closed environment. Now only getting iP7+, however still using my S7edge as my main daily driver due to reason uncle mentioned. However I have to say in term of stability iOS is way better than Android.

Previous iPhones were all rather underwhelming in the speaker department. Agree on that. But what Apple designers though of putting a dummy speaker vent really intrugues me. Didnt they think people will open up the phone to check the innards?

I'm intensive users of corporate e-mails and documents as well. With the use of cloud repositories such as Dropbox and OneDrive, I managed to live with iOS. The downside is that my mobile data usage is quite high every month. 5GB-10GB. And I'm not using it for streaming any movies/music at all.

Then you probably are the rare user here. For me, I can only access to my corporate emails thru IOS and so far I have no problems in dealing with office files.

Tempered glass i just bought from lazada around 13 bucks +shipping for my ip7plus, previously for iphone 6plus i got it from mr.diy only around 5.90 / 6.90 cant rmb, gone are the days where i pay rm30-50 for a piece of tempered glass. I feel it does not justify the price to pay to get the so call extra features that you dont even notice

This sometime happen but it is a earphone bug for previous gen with 3.5mm jack. 7 also hv this issue ? Usually a restart , playing some sort of video file from player or reboot fix this issue. Aint sure the lightning port also hv this issue

Those Rm5 ones are really low quality ones.
