Getting a new phone

Hey guys, I really need some help right now.

 

i've been using the iPhone 5 16GB model for about 4 years and it's starting to break down on me. I'm considering a change for my phone, and I need you guys' opinion fast.

 

I'm considering to buy a iPhone 7 128GB model in matte black. Is it worth it? Or can you guys consider any other phone for me? (Around those price points and below).

Since you're already embedded in the Apple ecosystem, I would heavily recommend the iPhone 7, although it is pricey.

Main Rig: i7-4790 | GTX 1080 | 32GB RAM

Laptop: 2016 Macbook Pro 15" w/ i7-6820HQ, RX 455, 16GB RAM

Others: Apple iPhone XS, ATH-M50X, Airpods, SE215
