Pros
Our editorial view of this model’s strengths and limitations.
A straightforward touchscreen
The Apple iPhone 7 Plus has a 5.5-inch screen that gives menus, short messages and photos a clear place on the front of the phone. Touch controls keep everyday actions direct.
A familiar Home button
Touch ID puts fingerprint unlocking in the Home button. If you like having a physical reference point for returning to the home screen, this layout may suit you better than gestures.
A separate telephoto camera
The Apple iPhone 7 Plus includes a dedicated telephoto camera. It gives you a tighter view of a person or detail without immediately cropping a small part of the main camera image, which is handy for portraits.
