I have an 8 and my son has a 7. Not much difference; mine is slightly faster- but not as noticeable as going from a 7 to a 6s. I'd just be concerned about longevity. The 7 is already almost 2 years old as a model- how is it going to work for the next 2 years?
Can you wait another 5 weeks? The new phones usually come out mid September, and the other models drop in price.
Also, have you priced getting yours fixed? The Apple store is pretty decent with pricing.
