I've been meaning to upgrade for a while now and I was thinking of buying the 7 Plus. However, the whole "buzzing noise" in those phones has me worried, I'm not really sure now because I'm not from the US and if I buy one I don't think I'm gonna be able to get it replaced. Is this happening to all phones, or only a few ones? I'm not sure if I should take the chance. Or should I just get the 7?
Got a tip for us?

Should I buy the iPhone 7 Plus?

As long as you purchase the iPhone from an Apple Store or authorized Apple dealer, you should be able to return it if it proves to be defective. As far as the buzzing with some iPhone 7+ units, it seems like it's a lot but you have to remember you are only going to hear from those owners who have the problem. Millions of iPhone 7+ have already been sold and do not have that problem.
The thing is, in my country we don't have an authorized Apple dealer. There is a place in my city that supposedly is but I've been told it's not. I'm not sure they would replace my iPhone if I needed to.
I certainly would not buy an expensive item such as an iPhone 7+ which can easily cost $1000 (depending on model) here in the US without being able to return it. The only way a return is guaranteed is it's from an Apple Store or an authorized Apple dealer. You know your country better than we do, so it's up to you then to decide. 
Yeah, I would buy it here but it's prety much double the priceI certainly would not buy an expensive item such as an iPhone 7+ which can easily cost $1000 (depending on model) here in the US without being able to return it.

That's why I intended to buy it in the US.
