How much is a refurbished iPhone 7 Plus worth?
The cost of an iPhone 7 Plus starting at 32GB in Canada is generally around the $279-299 price range depending on the condition, what vendor you’re looking at, and if there are any included accessories such as earbuds, lightning cable or 5W wall adapter. The 7 Plus has held it’s value more so than the original iPhone 7 as it was the first larger format 5.5” phone to make the rear camera Portrait Mode option available.
If you’re looking to sell an old iPhone 7 Plus, carriers like Rogers are giving a maximum of $140 in bill credit for the 32GB variant and only $145 for the 128GB variant. Keep in mind that's bill credit, which isn’t quite the same as cash in hand - something Mobile Tech Lab can do, and often beat by a few bucks.
If a larger screen isn't such a big selling point for you - and maybe you think it takes up too much pocket real estate - check out the 4.7" iPhone 7 model which is available starting at $199
Does Apple sell refurbished iPhones in Canada?
Apple does have what they define as Certified Refurbished iPhone devices available on their U.S site, however these aren’t competitively priced, or really meant for the Canadian market. Furthermore, the oldest device they currently have on the site is the iPhone 8. The 7 Plus is still fully compatible with iOS 14.4.1 so it’s clear that Apple is trying to artificially deprecate this model, despite the fact that it’s still supported and a very useful device for people who appreciate a larger display and a more cost effective price point.
Just because Apple doesn’t carry refurbished 7 Plus devices, doesn’t mean they aren’t available. Mobile Tech Lab has certified pre-owned iphone 7 Plus in every colour and capacity, at very competitive price points. Similar to Apple, all our phones come in a sleek white box, fully sanitized and backed by a one year warranty, and lifetime IMEI guarantee.
Is iPhone 7 Plus still worth buying in 2021?
If your upgrading from a deprecated or older iPhone, or even an Android, the iPhone 7 Plus phones are a great choice, even now in 2021, They use an LCD display which is easy to fix, the battery life and camera are still more than acceptable for the average user and the price point - especially considering trading in your existing device - is very reasonable for a 5.5” display.
Improvements in Camera Quality
The main rear facing camera - or should we say camera's - are two 12MP f/1.8 and f/2.8 which allows the ever popular Portrait Mode which is one of the most popular functions on any iPhone - yes, you can take amazing portrait style photos with a single tap and this is the main driving factor for customers to consider going for the larger 7 Plus over the normal iPhone 7.
iPhone 7 Plus CPU and Chipset
The A10 Fusion chipset allows the iPhone 7 Plus to handle your daily task load with a quad-core 2.34GHZ processor. This is 40% faster than the 6 Plus, so you can expect a visibly faster phone that is worth the expense.
5.5" LCD Display
A 5.5" LCD display with 3D Touch and 1080p resolution makes sure you get a beautiful display for your incoming text messages, overnight netflix binge sessions and Instagram feed. While still not offering an OLED display, the colour gamut is impressive and you definitely won't feel like your missing out by sticking with an LCD based phone.
iPhone 7 Plus - Still A Good Battery?
The battery life is always a big concern with any cell phone user in 2020 and beyond and the 7 Plus does not disappoint with a 2,900mAh battery that will definitely allow for a full day of charging and phone use.
