The Unboxing and First Impressions of the iPhone 7 Plus

I'm not going to do any fancy b-roll, I just want to get this video done and boot this phone. Speaking of booting, let's do this right now and keep in mind that the physical home button is officially dead. It uses the Taptic Engine just like it does on the Force Touch Track Pad, which I am perfectly okay with. The Force Touch Track Pad on my 2015 MacBook Pro is one of my favorite features of any Mac to ever exist, and actually, I should say for any Apple product to ever exist. I just love the Force Touch Track Pad that much.

Hola! All right, and by the way, I've used this home button before on my friend Dan's iPhone 7 Plus, so it's not completely new to me. Connect the network to Frankie University's Wi-Fi, put in my password, and join Ink Connect to iTunes. Interesting, do people still do that? It may take a few minutes to activate your iPhone; technically, I bought this unlocked, but it's already set up with 18T Confirm your phone number blah blah blah yes, that is true. Now, this should deactivate my success billing zip code couple verification steps activating iPhone now. Let's see when this one turns off or deactivates rather, it's not going to turn off; it may take a few minutes come on come on kill my success, do it, let it suffer, but I will be using it on Wi-Fi and quite often. It's activated, this is not deactivated; I'm assuming that'll happen any second. Enable Location Services always touch ID yes, I will do that because I use Touch ID all the time now on my Success, love that haptic feedback, sorry, Tactic Feedback, it's an Apple term. Adjust your grip, don't tell me what to do, place your finger, yeah, isn't this exciting? It is for me.

Complete, Create a Passcode, passcode complete alright, so Apps and Data Restore from iCloud Backup, restore from iTunes backup, set up his new iPhone or move data from Android. That's amusing; set up as New iPhone always, whether it's an iPhone or an iPad, I always set it up as a new device Apple ID, wait, which one do I do? I have two Apple IDs; I have one for Apps and one for iCloud, okay, I'll do my Gmail one for Apps, and then I'll sign in the iCloud after the fact. It's gonna be really nice using a plus-sized iPhone on a daily basis now that's the true test to see if I like large phones, because what with the LG Phones and the Samsung Phone those are just here for video purposes, like I use them for like two weeks, and that's pretty much it but this; I'll obviously be using every single day at least for the next year. I'm extremely excited to see what the iPhone 10 is going to be like; I know the iPhone 8, 7S, iPhone 10th anniversary, whatever they're gonna do yeah; I'm gonna have to resign in under my iCloud Email because it thinks I don't have iCloud Drive when I do, I have 200 GB of it easily worth it.

Apple Pay, nope, set up later not going to do that right now. ICloud Keychain, of course, actually, now I'm going to do that later because I'm going to restart this whole process. Hey Siri! Hey Siri! Hey Siri! Hey Siri! How's the weather today? Hey Siri, it's me; all of my iOS devices are lighting up right now; my two iPad Pros and my Advent Success which by the way has no service now awesome does it get more official than that?

Diagnoses and the App will always app analytics of course. Meet the new Home Button okay, get started. Choose your click, let me see one is too light I think oh no, that's actually two one-two-three I really like how Clicky three is of course I can always change this later; one two three maybe it will go with two that feels right. Display Zoom Standard or zoomed probably standard I like smaller icons let me see standard yeah standard looks better I'm sorry I know this isn't very exciting for you get started, and there you go! It's official.

Now, for the fun parts to reinstall all of my Apps because again, I always like to set it up as a new device because while in my opinion, I think a new device deserves a new start. Guys, they have it; iPhone 7 Plus unboxing obviously, a huge success; first impressions are very positive but of course, expect many more first thoughts impressions all that stuff in the next weekend vlogs. I'm getting distracted; all these notifications it's Apple telling me I signed in so guys thank you for watching what are your thoughts on the iPhone 7 Plus let me know.

The Verdict

This video showcases my unboxing and first impressions of the iPhone 7 Plus. The phone exceeded my expectations, and I was impressed with its features and build quality. The camera is particularly noteworthy, offering a wide-angle lens, Portrait mode, and an enhanced low-light performance.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhey guys how are you david defranco here david franco.com with finally my unboxing of the iphone 7 plus now i say finally but come on it hasn't been that long it's been what a handful of weeks this came out two months ago ish but in terms of like technology and waiting for technology that feels like a long time but it's finally in my possession iphone 7 plus i went with the matte black version but apple actually likes to call it black because there's also jet black jet black in my opinion is really nice but it's a fingerprint magnet and i do not like seeing fingerprints on my phone it just bothers me very much so i figured why not go with that matte black and plus it's got that stealth look going on and 128 gigabytes i did not go for 256 i thought about it but i'm like i'm not going to be spending over a thousand dollars on a phone after tax has came out to like 921 dollars i paid full price for the first time ever yes for the first time ever within the first year i usually wait two years but just this extra camera it had me convinced so iphone success you are officially retired but even with that said it doesn't mean i'm no longer going to use this phone i have some plans stay tuned for my christmas videos to find out more so anyway for now iphone 7 plus let's do this oh and also another reason why i went with 128 gigs over 256 besides cost like i already said come on david it's plastic oh yes is mainly because i don't need that much storage on my phone i stream pretty much everything i don't store videos on here except videos recorded by myself but in regards to music everything is on apple music nowadays so i don't need that much space however i will be shooting in raw and editing with camera plus and snapseed and all that and actually adobe lightroom now that i'm actually using lightroom on my mac pro and my macbook pro which is right here i don't know if snapseed supports raw photography i know camera plus does and lightroom obviously lightroom does come on it's made by adobe so here we go iphone 7 plus you are finally mine as always very simple elegant packaging designed by apple in california assembled in china but not my mac pro my mac pro was assembled in texas which is really cool so you get a welcome to iphone little piece of paper boom boom nobody reads that you know what i'm going to put that back in the box anyway because i like saving things and of course apple stickers as usual little fun fact for you if you want black apple stickers you had to buy a mac pro or just go on ebay all right here we go iphone 7 plus oh save the best for last little power brick goes right back in the box if i need it i'll take it out and lightning earpods my first ever pair of lightning compatible headphones this is a big deal because as you know the iphone 7 and 7 plus both do not feature a headphone jack which is not a big deal to me i mean it's a big deal in general because i think it's an industry changing decision hello samsung galaxy s8 it's probably not going to have a headphones jack and so many people dissed apple for ticking with headphones jack but i predicted it the competition follows in apple's footsteps just wait for it i guarantee you just wait for it and also on the back here is a little adapter which i will be using all the time this is actually gonna go right in my car and it's gonna stay in my car so they have it not a big deal i got my music yes i can't charge at the same time that might be an issue here and there speaking honestly but that's not gonna stop me from buying a little cheap adapter i just think people go a bit crazy for the wrong reasons and actually guys i said this in my last weekend vlog and i'm going to say it again if you cannot adapt to change then you should not be using technology if you honestly expect things to stay the same until the day you die i think it's best that you don't use technology and i know i know there's are harsh words but i honestly mean that you need to adapt to change if you want to use technology and that's the last time i'll say that at least for today and a lightning cable boom so there you go iphone 7 plus unboxing never the best part taking off the plastic this is always so satisfying oh my god that is like pure black look at that oh my god that is so nice yes this is my first ever plus sized iphone and keep in mind for anyone about to call me apple fanboy i own five android phones lg g4 lg g5 lg v10 lg v20 and samsung galaxy note 5 and i loved all of them each and every one of those phones is incredible for its own reason usually the camera and the display so anyway iphone 7 plus dual cameras on the back i cannot wait to put these cameras to use that is going to be so nice let's
