Hey everybody: this is Erica the technology nerd likes to film stuff, and it's finally here this is the jet-black iPhone 7 plus. This thing is seriously like a unicorn out in the wild I ordered this on pre-order day within the first two minutes, and it had already said that this wouldn't ship until what September, 26 to October, 3rd or whatever so today is the 22nd. I did get it early earlier than projected anyway, and I have not yet seen the jet-black iPhone 7, plus at all anywhere, not in any Apple stores that I've looked at so far, just the regular one, and I was happy to see that I made the right choice in getting this. One. I am very, very aware that this is very fingerprinting and that it scratches easily, but it's not slippery. The iPhone 7 plus I have right now is the gold one, and I also played around with the black one.
The matte black one and I just found them to be just too slippery to me. So we're just going to see how it goes. I, don't know how badly this is going to scratch. I really don't want to baby it I want to use it in all practicality, putting it in him out of my pocket, truly see what happens to it just out in the wild real field tests we'll see how terribly this scratches, obviously I'm, not gonna, run it across a table and I will be careful, but I do want to see for you guys how this is going to last. So let's go ahead and take this screen protector bit off, and I want to get up close and personal and try to show you up close how shiny this is so already hair have to get it all fingerprint e.
Let's, let's just do it I'm, not going to baby. It's just it's fine seriously. So first impression, in the hand, is that this feels like it's not going to slip. I like that. So it's not going to slip.
It's not going to fall very, very slippery where this just sits in my hand really nicely, and yes, it gets all fingerprint e, but so does glass I've been playing around a lot with the Galaxy Note 7 Galaxy S7 edge and those all have very fingerprinted e surfaces. I've gotten over that I do not recommend this for the anal-retentive or obsessive-compulsive, so I have thoroughly inspected this, and I have found just that nice little scratch pretty much right out-of-the-box might have been my fault because they just rubbed it against my shirt but right out of the box within just two minutes of playing with it yeah. He can already see a little scuff I'm, not panicking. So let's just look around the phone here you consider even around the bezels. All around this thing is the same material that we have here on the back.
So this truly is this glossy black all throughout, and even where you see these antenna bands, they blend absolutely perfectly I'm, sure they're also plastic, but they are just so hard to see, except for in the perfect lighting circumstance. So this really looks like one continuous black body design and that is quite attractive. I'm going to try to take it into some other lighting, so you can see better alright. So here we are at just a little different lighting, so you can see how that band wraps around there at the bottom, very, very subtle and extremely an incredibly glossy phone gives you a bit of an up-close over the finish here towards the top. So this is very, very pretty I like it really I.
Do let's go ahead and turn it on, though that's kind of the whole point of an unboxing right, one, continuous black slab, oh and in case some of you are wondering yes, I am hearing that hissing noise when I run a benchmark, for example, and I hold this up to my ear. I can hear it kind of whining worrying a little unless it's completely quiet, I, don't think I would really notice, though the only things that I noticed when I did a camera test. You can check out that video there's a link in the description I'll put for the video where I did a camera test, as I could hear some interference. Noise, I think those are probably actually two different problems, but the baseline noise of the video doesn't sound too nice. You guys can go and check that out for yourself.
So before I set this up. Let's just look around the rest of the phone. You see. You've got the switch here, Wow everything really blends in really. Well, it's almost hard to see those buttons.
You can see the volume buttons, here's the antenna band here. Of course, you see the do lens camera here microphone and also your dual tone and quad LED. Flash here is your power button. You have your SIM tray. Some we're saying that the SIM tray doesn't sit exactly flush.
Is that exactly flush? It's good enough? We have our home button. You've got our speaker and our microphone and also the charging port. Please excuse the water noise. Someone decided to take a bath right as I was doing this, and I don't have too much daylight left anyway. I just set this up, and the first thing: I notice, of course, because I notice, these things is that the white point is a little different, a little more greenish.
You actually like the white point, a bit better on this one here, so it just tells me that, of course, as always, there are variations and I did listen to this as I've been setting it up. You know the processor has to work extra hard, and I can hear the hissing same, same on both of them. So this seems to be a thing, not overly annoying, but it is there so here we have it you guys, please you must. Let me know what you think about how this looks. Ooh, there.
You go. That's a perfect angle, where you can see all those nice smudgy fingerprints if I start seeing this really scratch up really easily I'm course I'm going to come on and make another video just to show you how this is aging over time, and this is going to be my review unit. I purchased these, though both of these I'm not upset with my decision, though, because this is really quite slippery for me and because I'm, not someone who loves cases, I will use them if I have to, but I, certainly don't prefer them, so I don't want to be at risk of dropping it and I feel like this. One is going to be the least susceptible to being dropped. So, if you guys have any questions, please ask them.
