Another year, another annual iPhone launch. It's no secret that Apple has been feeling the pressure recently, with the first quarterly revenue drop in 13 years.

Incredible screen; Fast performance; Waterproofing

Battery is still too small; Some software bugs

Very pleased with phone and its performance, other than the box inside the packaging being open, I was so pleased, that I ordered another one, in a different color!!!!!

"Is the iPhone 7 worth upgrading to?" This is the question I've been asked by friends, family and MobileSyrup readers since the somewhat controversial iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus were revealed.

Sleek new colour options (Jet black and Black; One of the most powerful smartphones on the market; Taptic Engine is great; Waterproof; Camera is incredible; especially in the 7 Plus

No radical redesign, no resolution boost and no headphone port. If you look at what the iPhone 7 is missing, at least on paper, it's all too easy to dismiss Apple's latest pocket blower as just yet another iterative update. There's more to it than that though. A lot more.

Brilliant Force Touch home button; Finally plays nice with water; Beautifully; vibrant display

Missing 7 Plus's dual camera; Lack of headphone port a little restrictive; Only certain colours show off design wins

After using the iPhone 7 for a little over a week, there wasn't anything much with it that I could say stood out from the previous model. Yes, it has more RAM, more storage, better processor, better camera, better display but all these felt incremental that you could not really see or feel the...

* Better performance; * Better camera; * Water-resistance; * Bigger storage

* Missing 3.5mm audio port; * Home button takes time to get used to; * Same old design; * Expensive
