iPhone 7 Review: Beyond The Boring

For another year running, the new iPhone is a lot like the old iPhone. In looks, in functionality, in its very essence, the iPhone 7 is a device of old ideas, repackaged: the water resistance, the little conveniences, even the assassination of the noble headphone jack ... none of it is truly *new* to the smartphone world. But Apple (as always) is less about novelty than about presenting existing technology in a new and interesting way. The iPhone 7 lives up to that legacy -- but you need to be able to see beyond the boring bits to realize it. Join Michael Fisher for MrMobile's iPhone 7 review, and stay tuned for the iPhone 7 Plus review coming soon!

[ABOUT THIS VIDEO]

MrMobile's iPhone 7 Review was published after six days with a retail iPhone 7 handset (32GB, Black) purchased from Apple and used on T-Mobile US in New York City and Greater Boston. The device was paired to an Apple Watch Series 2 on the final day of testing.

Only Michael knows how to review a device in such a way that fans on both sides don't start a world war 3 here. LOL. Good job Michael.

MICHAEL FISHER YOU ARE THE BEST REVIEWER ON YOUTUBE

[chakshuk]

Micheal Fisher is the best reviewer ever.
Tapping both the good and bad. And not exaggerating both.
Thank you sir for a good review.

[marcusxe]

after the useless removal of the headphone jack, watch them remove the home button too, saying that gestures are the future, 'buttons' are outdated...

[MusicAndCars]

Thank you for making probably the most balanced review of the iPhone 7 to date ^^
No overt praising like an Apple fanboy, yet no overt hating like any other fanboy. As someone who's used three Windows Phones since Window Mobile 6.1, to Android Marshmallow on an S6 Edge, and every iPhone since the 3GS, I can honestly say the blind hate between the three OSs is pointless. They all got their benefits and quirks, and if you don't like them, don't buy them, it's about as simple as it gets.

Honestly, I love tech Michael, that's why I watch your videos even though frankly, I won't be able to buy a new phone any time soon. But all these slurs and insults being thrown around in discussions and comment sections spoil the fun :-/

Aff all the reviews I saw in YouTube, Your iPhone review is the coolest.

[MTR]

I kind of wonder why they don't improve the resolution to at least 1080p. Maybe that's where their performance gains are coming from. They are running slightly higher than 720p

[lovelylynn]

If Apple is all about a wireless future then where is the wireless charging??

[droneempireusa]

you know you're good if people are all ready commenting great review without even watching the entire video

[airsoft]

Why did Jill get amnesia after buying the iPhone 7? Because she didn't know Jack.

[CyberScene]

Record 4k and Watch In 720p 😂😂😂 #Apple'sLogic

[nabilkhatri]

Damn! Michael You're better than MKBHD 👌👍 just love the way you represent stuffs for reviewing!

[piyushv]

I always comment this "Michael Fisher is the best reviewer!"

[ronchristella]

Still the best phone reviewer hands down. People boast about mkbhd, but tech nerds love this guy since pocket now! Captain two phones to the rescue lol!

[RickyRisha]

In 2019 it still works so fine and one of underrated devices today. With 3 years back launch still competes today's flagships and performs well than most

[StevePradhan]

i don't know what people say, but this guy is the best reviewer to me... absolutely reaches all the corners of a device without being biased.. good job..

[markboyer]

My Friend, I'm not as smart as the other techno heroes below, but I was really impressed with how well you put your information and video together. it appears to me that you covered all bases and included many extra bits of information that should allow the dumbest rock like me a chance to make up my own mind or at least go in the direction that best suits my needs. Thank you for a very professional, Mature, and Informative presentation. You have a new subscriber - Cheers!
