After five-hour wait, Mumbai's 'first iPhone 7 buyer' had this to say

Tech reviews can get boring, and the informative type even more so. Who cares about the screen size, the hardware specs, the operating system or even the basic features (or the lack of them). It is all a bunch of data, facts and figures that has never really helped any one and we can't help but go beyond the obvious.

Sure, the new iPhone has no audio jack, but is that information we really need? So, in this consumer-driven world where material gain means everything, let us take a look at the most heartfelt and honest review anyone came up with in the history of the iPhone (No seriously).

Shivani Singh, the first buyer of the iPhone 7, launched in Mumbai on Friday, October 7, opened up to a CNBC reporter about why she was upbeat about using the gadget of the year: the seemingly mysterious iPhone.

Standing at the Reliance Jio store in Mumbai, where she waited for at least for five hours (no kidding), Shivani managed to become the first iPhone 7 owner in Mumbai and that makes her worthy of some recognition considering she fought the sweltering Mumbai weather to be the first person to buy it. Now, her reasons to buy the iPhone tell you something about the people who use the phone, which comes at a steep Rs 68,000 in India. Let us look at her honest take:

1. Because Apple is LITERALLY her favourite brand. Yes, LITERALLY.

2. And of course, the iPhone 7 is SO AMAZING. *Slow clap*

3. Add to the fact that you get a Reliance JIO sim card absolutely free with it, who wouldn't feel special?

4. She's not your run-of-the-mill Apple fan because while the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6S were REALLY GREAT, the iPhone 7 speakers are SO MUCH BETTER.

5. The picture quality is REALLY GOOD beacuse it does not pixelate.

6. And of course, the best part (and we mean the best within the best) is that it's water-resistant! Because that is really all you need if you live in Mumbai.

Note: The reviewer claims to have sold her left kidney to buy the iPhone 7. So, the memes and the gifs were true.
