Is the iPhone 7 still a good phone in 2021?
Given the price adjustments iPhone models see every year, and the fact that you can get a great quality, almost like-new iPhone 7 phone for cheap - often less than $200, it's one of the best phones for the budget-conscious or price sensitive user. As of 2021, it still supports iOS 14.4.1 so all your normal applications like YouTube, Netflix, Amazon Prime and whatever mindless game your addicted to will likely still be supported. Damaged screen and battery replacement are also both very economically priced due to the use of an LCD screen versus an OLED for newer devices like the iPhone X or iPhone 11 Pro.

iPhone 7 Price in Canada - New, Refurb, Gently Used?
The reality is that Apple does deprecate and discontinue devices very often, some would say faster than they should. As of 2021, and 2022, the iPhone 7 is no longer available brand new, so the only option in the market is certified preowned, refurbished or even just loosely labelled used.
The price for an iPhone 7 will likely continue to stay low, especially as newer phones like the iPhone 12 and 13 rise in cost. It is important though, to keep in mind that a sealed iPhone 7 will not be priced in line with certified preowned inventory because it is priced similar to an antique, more so than a device in line with market rates. Also keep in mind, all phones sold by us are backed by a guarantee against any potential blacklist issues.

The iPhone 7 was shipped in Jet Black (which was essentially a fingerprint magnet), Matte Black, Silver, Gold, Rose Gold (aka pink) and a Product Red variant.

The flash has also improved to a Quad-LED flash function versus a Dual-LED flash, which improves the low-light capability of the iPhone 7.
