What is the author's point of view on the iPhone 7?
If you want a small Apple phone you'd be better off opting for the iPhone SE. Alternatively check out our iPhone 7 Plus review. Yes that phone is even more expensive, but it lasts a lot longer and has an even better camera that offers proper zoom. There is one other option to consider too if you're hooked on Apple. The iPhone 6S Plus remains a great phone, has strong battery life and costs exactly the same as the iPhone 7.

• He thinks the iPhone 7 is the best invention yet.

• He thinks the iPhone 7 is the worst thing to happen to technology.

• He thinks that iPhone SE, 7, and/or 7 Plus is better and costs the same.

• He doesn't care about the iPhone 7.
