Got mine on Friday at the Verizon store (got it free except for tax because my contract was up so I was able to do a trade). Went from a 6 to 7. Faster, the battery lasts longer and I think the camera is better. Like somebody said. the home button takes some getting used to. I don't have bluetooth so I still have to use the aux plug in my car. Kind of a pain since I can't charge at the same time that I use the adapter. Good thing the battery lasts longer. I did purchase a Beats wireless headphone when I bought the phone though. Honestly, although it's a nice phone, I'm starting to wonder if I wouldn't have been better off keeping my 6 and waiting for the 8. There just aren't that many differences, IMO. I'm happy with it though.

That solves the problem of using the aux jack and charging the phone while playing music. I have apple car play in the car so this is a non-issue for me, but for others this is great!
My 7+ came yesterday. I was hating the loss of swipe on my 6+ in 10, really taking some getting used to with the non tactile button. I see no difference between the three home button choices, wtf is that?

Loss of swipe? What do you mean? Are you using a third party keyboard, and now it doesn't work?
Sounds dumb, but no swipe is a dealbreaker for me... shit

No, swiping to the left to enter a code to unlock your phone.
you're thinking of swype.
The one thing Im getting used to it just lifting the phone up to activate the home screen if I just want to check real quick. Otherwise I instinctively press the home button and its so damn fast now it instantly unlocks.

Oh, that. derp. I like the new three-window lock screen now, as I usually need to take quick photos for work. Swiping to the left is easier than dragging up from the bottom right corner (iOS 9)
I swear I'm not trying to sound like an obnoxious Android fanboy, but I loved that lifting of the phone to activate the home screen. My original Moto X had that feature and while it's not amazing, it's definitely a nice addition.
Actually thinking about it some more, I don't really swipe left to unlock my phone very often. Only if Touch ID fails or after a restart and I have to enter in the passcode.
I always press the home button and leave my finger there for Touch ID, or press the power button then unlock with Touch ID.
