The lock screen thing can be changed back easy enough. I love that I can see and reply to Whatsapp messages on the lock screen.

Anybody got the 32gb version? What's the free memory like with ios10?

I made the massive mistake of getting a 16gb iPhone 6 which was immediately full the day I restored it.

I would get the 64gb version but Obviously Apple want us to spend extra money for the 128gb which seems a bit overkill to me just got a phone.

Got mine yesterday, 128GB in silver (they were out of black). One thing that I noticed is when I went to move my icons/apps around the way I like I had to hold the screen for a LONG time to get them to wiggle and they didn't move easily. Same thing when I try to copy and paste. Anyone notice this or have a solution?

Love the phone though. I thought the lack of a headphone jack would bother me but it really doesn't.

Wife got a 7 and when setting it up it had three options for your home button.

I couldn't tell the difference in the three clicks nor could she... haha

You'd need the hands of a tree frog to tell the difference... no telling how much time and money they spent on including that silly feature.

I have a Samsung note 4. I think I will be switching to 7 plus. My wife is hinting that she like the new 7.

Originally wanted jet black - until I held it in my hand... it was a NOPE...

The "black" is darker in person and doesn't look and feel as cheap as the jet black...

That's what the phone looks like? Looks a lot more like a box than I thought it would. Not too slim either.

Beside, jet black will leave way too many finger prints if one would not use a case.

Granted, most people will use a case, but there was something just cheap feeling about it... it wasn't as slick as it looks, so there was grip, just didn't appeal to me anymore... Looks way nicer in pictures... The regular black is the polar opposite - doesn't photograph well but is so much nicer in person... I'm just thankful they let me switch to the regular black...

I'm really surprised jet black feels cheaper compared to the black version, considering jet blacks multiply polishing stages.
I originally planner on and thought I ordered jet black, found out the next day I actually ordered black instead, guess I lucked out.

iPhones are visually appealing compared to most smartphones (imo), so I'm a firm believer in rocking iPhones raw dawg.

On the fence about this. Not sure if worthwhile to upgrade to 7 from 6S. Did order a 7+ 128gb though and will probably hand the 6S over to my brother so he can use his 5S as a backup.

Mine did almost 24hours after placing order.i order within 30 minutes of initial pre-orders opening.
It was originally 9/16-9/23, then bumped up to 9/19-9/26.

What's your estimated delivery window at?
