I just made the connection with Apple Pay that it will be easier to buy things on an iPhone than on the Amazon Fire phone, a phone that was made to make it easy to buy things.

I really dislike there bein no 32gb Plus. That is my sweet spot and what I've always gotten.

16gb is too little for me and 64gb is way more than I need. I usually use about 20gb-25gb without managing it.

I wish they would have gone 32/64/128.

Meh. In some ways maybe in others maybe not. A little premature statement though.

IMO I don't see the new iphones swaying android users who didn't want an iPhone previously. It seems to just be geared to current iPhone users...

same here, but I believe they are banking on people jumping up to 64 instead of 16



if they had gone 32 for the base, they may not have sold many upgraded versions

Agreed. But android has been interesting to watch the past couple years as people move away from Samsung and on to LG or Nexus. There's real competition going on there. And as people change, they may take a look at apple again as an option.

At the same price points they sure as hell would have. People would have jumped at it! That's what's so odd. You could tell people "here's a new phone; a bigger phone; and it's double the memory. And guess what? same price as you bought the last one!"

The only thing they're missing is opening up customization options. If they did that I'd probably switch.

Kind of like this event stream, which required Safari to work.

But have you called apple? I had a storage problem on my MacBook and I called them and they remoted in to it and found out my mail was taking up all the space


Apple's solution is to restore the phone to factory settings.

How do you order a phone through apple without going back under contract with verizon (yes I'm aware I won't get the lower price)

Release the 6 line with 1080p resolution then next year release the 6S with a quad HD screen. They know Apple fanboys will lap both up
My thoughts as well. I know they can get the 4k going. They might need to tweak the battery though because I heard that type of display eats it up. I'm worried about the G3 in that regard.

Does the 6+ come in the same colors as the 6?

What are those prices? With 2 year contract at a phone provider?

Battery a little better on the iPhone 6; iPhone 6 Plus has amazing battery life.

Any more details on this. Battery life is at the top of my interests when looking at a new phone
