Bought iPhone 7 Plus,& returned it without even opening the box! - GSM-Forum

I've been using iPhone 6s for around 6 months now (prior to that I had a Note 5 for 6 months, before that iPhone 6 for 2 years, and before that iPhone 4s for 2 years).

I wasn't impressed with iPhone 7 or 7 Plus at all initially,I didn't like the boring repetitive design and like most people decided not to update and wait for the iPhone 8 (or whatever it's called).

BUT for some reason when I found a deal for iPhone 7 Plus and a willing,paying friend who was interested in my iPhone 6s,I decided to go ahead and replace it.and I opted for the Plus so that at least I can see some benefits and differences.

so I've got the iPhone 7 Plus Matt Black delivered this morning,but all the sudden I decided not to even open the box and return it, and wait for a proper update, with an OLED screen and a change of design which is definitely necessary.

the thing just looks so tired and un-necessarily huge and I can even say ugly (I had Note 5 before so it's just the iPhone's wasted space on top and button that makes it so cumbersome).

that and the recent news about matt black finnish chipping and fading..and the ridiculous unreasonable price hike just made me regret buying it even without opening the box.

obviously I've tried it in Apple store before but it's kinda sad to see an Apple product so un-exciting and bland that makes you not even want to open the box, don't you think?
