Overview
The iPhone 7 Plus is a budget phone from Apple, with an unverified reference price of about JOD 55 (about $80), up to about JOD 65 for higher storage — also an estimate — an estimate, not a confirmed market price. Below is its full spec sheet with a plain-language breakdown, pros and cons, and how it compares to its rivals. We have not tested this phone ourselves; everything here is derived from published specifications.
Its main highlights: its practical balance of price and specs. Its chipset is basic (34/100) — calls, WhatsApp and light browsing, as a first or backup phone.
Performance-index rank: #40 of 46 Apple phones we list — and its performance-per-dinar is among the highest we list (an arithmetic ratio, not a verdict on value).
Why consider it?
The larger iPhone 7, adding a telephoto lens and a full-HD screen for the price difference — an estimated ≈ 55 to ≈ 65 JOD with us — under a software ceiling that does not move: iOS 15.
Who it suits
Someone who wants a bigger screen, real optical zoom and Portrait mode for very little money, in limited and temporary use.
Who should look elsewhere
Anyone who dislikes heavy phones, anyone who expects continuing OS updates, and anyone who shoots a lot in dim light.
Performance, camera, display and battery — and the limits of the evidence
The difference between the two sizes comes down to three items on Apple's own pages. First, a 5.5-inch 1920-by-1080 display at 401 ppi instead of 4.7 inches at 1334 by 750 and 326 ppi. Second, a dual 12 MP camera that adds a telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom and Portrait mode, where the smaller phone has one lens. Third, higher rated runtimes: up to 21 hours of talk time, 14 hours of video and 60 hours of audio, against 14, 13 and 40. All of those figures were published for a brand-new 2016 handset, not measured on a used one today.
The non-monetary cost of those gains is bulk: 188 grams, 158.2 mm tall and 77.9 mm wide. That is the footprint of a current 6.5-inch phone wrapped around a noticeably smaller viewing area, with thick bezels above and below the panel.
On the camera side, the telephoto opens to ƒ/2.8, narrower than the ƒ/1.8 main lens, and Apple lists no Night mode for either, so the real benefit shows up in daylight and good indoor light.
Then comes the wall that flattens both models: this one is absent from Apple's iOS 16 list, so iOS 15 is its ceiling, with occasional security patches on the 15.8 branch, most recently dated 11 May 2026. In practice the price difference buys a slightly better picture and a wider screen, not extra years. Ask for the Battery Health figure, and about any previous repairs, before you decide.
Alternatives worth comparing
- Galaxy S9 — At the same price (≈ 55 JOD), a 5.8-inch AMOLED screen in a smaller, lighter body with an Exynos 9810 and a slightly higher place on our spec index — though it too left the update cycle years ago. (55 JOD · estimate)
- Pocophone F1 — For the same money (≈ 55 JOD), a Snapdragon 845 and a claimed 4000 mAh battery with a clearly higher spec-index placement, at the cost of giving up optical zoom and a dedicated portrait lens. (55 JOD · estimate)
Strengths and trade-offs in detail ›
Verdict — conditional on your needs and the documented price above
Worth the gap over the iPhone 7 only if the bigger screen or the optical zoom is a genuine need, not as an "upgrade" step. Either way this is an interim device: the second lens improves your photos within the same short software life that remains, and does not extend that life by a single day.

Phones JO index (spec-based)
What does that mean in plain words?
Chipset: Apple A10 Fusion — basic tier (34/100): calls, WhatsApp and light browsing.
Battery: 2,900 mAh — a relatively small capacity by market standards. Capacity is an indicator, not a measurement: real endurance depends on the display, chipset and your usage, and we have not measured it.
Charging: 5W — standard (rated charging power; actual charge time varies with the charger and temperature).
Display: IPS LCD FHD+, 5.5-inch — an LCD panel; lower contrast than OLED, and the norm at this price.
Camera: 12+12 MP (2 lenses) plus a 7 MP front camera. Megapixels and lens count describe the setup, not image quality — real results depend on the sensor and processing, which we have not tested.

Pros & cons
Pros
- A dual 12 MP wide plus telephoto camera with 2x optical zoom and Portrait mode — neither of which the smaller model has
- A 5.5-inch 1920-by-1080 display at 401 ppi, a denser panel than the iPhone 7's according to Apple's own two pages
- Higher rated runtimes: up to 21 hours talk time, 16 days standby and up to 14 hours of video playback (as published when the phone was new in 2016)
Cons
- Not on Apple's iOS 16 list, so its path ended at iOS 15 with only security patching on the 15.8 branch, the latest dated 11 May 2026
- 188 grams and 158.2 mm tall — a bulky body by today's standards for only 5.5 inches of screen
- No fast charging and no wireless charging on Apple's page, and the telephoto's ƒ/2.8 aperture is narrower than the ƒ/1.8 main lens, with no Night mode for either

USD equivalents use the official peg.
Specification ambiguity: Some spec fields on this page (battery_mah, charge_w, ram_gb, refresh_hz) could not be matched to the manufacturer's own page — either the maker does not publish them, publishes a different figure, or the name covers more than one variant.
