iPhone 7 vs. iPhone 17 Pro: Evaluating Nine Years of Apple Innovation
Discover whether nine generations of iPhones actually delivered breakthrough advancements or if critical design elements from 2016 still outperform the modern flagship in surprising ways.
Short Summary
- Archive smartphone features, like the physical mute switch and thinner body profile, win points against the new iPhone 17 Pro.
- Measurable upgrades primarily focus on display technology (OLED, 120Hz) and modern software interface adoption (Dynamic Island, iOS 26).
- Performance testing reveals that app load times and boot speeds remain surprisingly stagnant, suggesting software bloat cancels hardware gains.
This video critically compares the functional design and performance of the decade-old iPhone 7 against a hypothetical iPhone 17 Pro, using parody to highlight areas where incremental improvements may not justify the generational leap in price or complexity.

It’s ’improved’ in price.
Since Apple was basicly forced to switch to USB-C the 17 shouldn't get the point for that
9 years advancements: 1. No 3d touch 2. No headphone jack 3. No charger & headphone in box 4. AI 5. Digital sharpening + Fake HDR Camera 6. Slow shutter renamed as Night Mode 7. More AI 8. Price hike 9. No Touch ID 10. Got bigger & bulkier
9 years of innovation yielded: 2 cameras and a few extra buttons
Apple’s innovation is clearly making the logo fade to existence
As Android user, I didn't even realize iPhone design didn't change on 11-16
Tim Crook sure knows how to milk the Apple cow. The software bloat means the phone never gets any faster in real world applications.
"You're lucky to get a phone with the money you give them"
i think the older phones took better pics cuz there's no insane overprocessing after it's taken
