Apple iPhone 7 Plus

Technical specifications

I am the next (second, if not third) owner of this smartphone, and that already says something. I bought it used and it was an excellent choice because the price is very attractive and, despite being used for 3 years (now 5 or 6 years :p), it still functions very smoothly. I have read many comments that in other phones, after a year, two, or sometimes only three years, the phone slows down, lags, heats up, etc. In the case of the iPhone 7 Plus, it is completely different; the phone works as if it were new! Even the latest updates do not slow down this excellent device. The key is to choose a model with a sufficiently large memory, as those with 16 GB, 32 GB, and perhaps 64 GB can fill up quickly, and as is known, even a full refrigerator does not work like an empty or half-full one. I am not a photography connoisseur, but they are of really good quality; for 4k, 8k, and who knows how many k photos, one obviously buys a camera, not a phone that is meant for calling and using applications. The difference between the 7 and 7+ is a much larger screen (my girlfriend switched from a 7 to a 7+ and there is a difference). I read that in Samsung and Xiaomi devices, screen burn-in sometimes occurs, meaning either part of the screen does not display content correctly or some fragments (purple stars, charging bar, etc.) have become permanent on the screen; you will not experience this on this smartphone! The components could be better for this price, but the system is highly optimized and everything works perfectly. Only the battery does not last long, but as is known, the only appropriate phone with a strong battery is the Nokia C3310; the era of smartphones is an era of weak batteries, until they invent an atomic battery or other photovoltaic technology that will not force the user to charge their smartphone every day. It is worth protecting it with tempered glass + a case, and then it can be dropped without fear of a cracked screen or other mechanical damage. I have never had a Mac to fully utilize various connection technologies with a Mac computer, but for Windows, there is iTunes which provides basic functions such as file transfer, photo management, or music management.

I own both the iPhone 7 Plus and the iPhone 8 Plus, and to my surprise, the iPhone 7 Plus has a better camera. I am referring to less processed noise (in the iPhone 8 Plus, the noise reduction processes it excessively, and blurry spots appear in some places), which makes the photos sharper and the color palette much more pleasant. The phone itself is great. Large, beautiful screen, design, and speed of operation. Despite a decrease in battery capacity, it still lasts all day. It requires recharging towards the evening, but that is still a good result for a several-year-old smartphone battery. Overall, I highly recommend it even in 2023. I personally plan to use it for another 2-3 years, if not longer :)
