Also ask yourself this, why did Apple this year choose to use different modem chips in the ATT/TMobile
phones? The 6S all the phones had the Qualcomm. Its all about profit, they put the cheaper chip where they could get away with it.

I know this may be something you can't comprehend, but cheaper prices don't always mean you're buying something of lower quality. Granted, the Qualcomm phone has more functionality working on CDMA networks, but some of us don't care because we don't ever plan on using a CDMA network.
I know, I know. I just don't understand that the Qualcomm version of the iPhone 7 is the "world" phone, has exceptionally better reception and battery life than the Intel version that you have proved beyond all doubt with your robust scientific tests, and might even cure cancer! And on top of that, 2 years from now, I might get 50 whole dollars more for my used iPhone. I must be an idiot!!!!
