[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1840939, member: 204485"] Nick, I think your question goes to the heart of it. Why replace the 7 at all? As others have said the 7 is a great little phone. It runs the current iOS and does everything I need it to do but I think that like the 5 and 6 will become redundant with future iOS upgrades. My practice has always been to sell my old iPhone while it still worked well and still had value, upgrading to the model before the current model. I bought this 7 after the 8 was released. Apple skipping the 9 sort of through me out. So given that this 7 can’t last too much longer I rather upgrade to an 8 while I can still sell it. At 5.45” the iPhone 8 is still not quite a small tablet and it still has a Home button which I prefer. My concern is that I’m going to find myself in Indonesia or elsewhere in the world with a dead iPhone and limited options for replacement. In Indonesia an XR costs about AU $1500.00.
