Lithium ion batteries lose their ability to hold a charge over time, even if they aren’t being used. https://www.protoolreviews.com/how-long-do-lithium-ion-batteries-last/

I don't think Lithium batteries are effected by not being used. If you buy AA Lithium batteries it says they have a hself life of 10 years.

If it's a new 7, the battery could already be shot from sitting on the shelf for the past four years. On 10/1/2020 7:14 PM, Mary Otten wrote: I agree with Gordon. I would not pay $200 for what will be a four-year-old phone this fall. Save up for the SE 2020 if you can. I would want to know about the battery. Has it ever been replaced? If not, if the phone has been used over time, the batteries probably not very good. If this is from a private party, unless you really know them, I wouldn’t do it, and I wouldn’t do it for $200 in any case. My 7+ is running iOS 14 beta actually, and it’s fine. You could maybe get another year, but you don’t know. So in any case, at the very least, try to get the price down and make sure what the battery situation is.

I personally wouldn't pay $200 myself. yes you can set it up with no sighted assistance. Just press the home button three times once the phone starts and voice over will come up. If I was doing this I would save up and buy the new SE2020 that just came out. The iPhone 7 will run IOS 14, but I doubt that it will get anymore updates past that point. If you're on a budget, look for a cheaper iPhone 7. On 10/1/2020 6:55 PM, David Moore wrote: Hey guys! I am currently an Android user, but Traci and I need to change to a better phone to keep using our Family Mobile phone plan through Walmart! I use cheap Android phones over our wifi like tablets! So, First of all! Question 1 Can I set up an iPhone totally by myself. With Android, I can press the power button, and put two fingers on the screen and Talk Back asks me if I want to turn it on. Does the iPhone let you turn on Voice Over in that manner, or is there some other way to turn on Voice over when taking the phone right out of the box? Can I totally get the phone set up without any sighted help? I have heard something about an apple ID or something, and can I do all of that without any sighted assistance? Question 2 How do you guys feel about me getting an iPhone 7! Is this a late enough phone to get IOS updates! Question 3 The phone for $199.00 comes with IOS 11. What do you think? Question 4 I know a lot of gestures for the iPhone by studying the Hadley videos! How up to date are those videos, and what Gestures are new that I might need to know that are not in those videos. I have the basic multi-fingered gestures down cold by listening to those videos! This will be the first time I will be using a smart phone as an actual phone where I will have to answer calls, make them and so on! Thanks guys for any suggestions you can give me, and would this iPhone 7 be a good purchase for $199.00 LOL! Hope and excited to hear from you all! I have learned a lot from you all in case I get an iPhone, and this might be the time to get one!
