Just go look in telco stores ( I saw one at a 2degrees kiosk) or the likes of Harvey Norman

or just look at a 6S, there isn't a whole lot different design wise 

Linux: I was in Sweden the other day loads in the Apple store to look at

In Paris now will let you know if local Apple store has any to view

:p

Not particularly helpful from a 'Trusted' member? 

Vodafone in St Lukes have a Black 7 and even one of the elusive Jet Black 7+'s.

At least they did last Friday…

I saw my first iPhone 7 at the Warehouse Stationary, Fraser Cove, Tauranga two days post release so I am presuming they are in all their stores.

mrphil: Is there any shop you can just walk in a buy a iPhone 7 outright?

Don't know about NZ but I was in Sydney last week and the Apple Store certainly had them out on display - there was nothing saying they were not available for purchase, so I assume they were.

I doubt it as pre-orders haven't even been supplied for a lot of models.

dickytim: I stand corrected, it looks like IPhone 7 are mostly available but not iPhone7+

The 2degrees kiosk I went to had the 7+, and not the 7
