One thing that is driving me crazy about Swype is that it does not recognize my first name. So annoying.

I got an iPhone 6 because it was only $100 to upgrade.  Oh well.  Good part is I like my wallet case by serna.  Good job by me.

I can make it until I get home from work most days, but I haven't been taking many photos or using hotspot.      I've read mixed reviews on battery life.    I switched to a black wallpaper and that did seem to help.

Guys, don't manually set your iPhone/iPad to January 1, 1970. Like seriously don't do it and if someone says to, don't do it.  I mean I guess if you want to throw your phone in the trash do it, but even then don't do it.

I've had my iPhone 6 for over a year and the battery is dying on it. I know it also isn't quite right, like it's not as fast as it should be, and I have to airplane mode it a couple times a day.

Is it worth it to get a 6s when they are coming out in like 6 months?  I mean I could get a 6s and then get a 7, but just seems like a hassle. Thoughts?

If it's less than 1 year old and you haven't tossed it in the drink I'd go to a Genius bar and see what they can do for you.

I've had my 6 for over a year, the 7 comes out in 6 months.  Are you saying I should get a 6s for 6 months then get a 7 or...

Do you have insurance or warranty?

I had a 6+ for over a year and started having touch screen problems. They sent me a replacement, I had to send the old one back, and the new one (it is certified used) is fine. I paid $0 for this.

Now I'll wait until the 7+ comes in the fall.

Yeah I have insurance. The issues are minute, but I notice them. So did they send you a refurbished 6+ or a 6s+? My issues seem to be network related, so idk if something is wrong with my wifi adapter or what.

There is a reason why Apple has boss tech support.  I'd start there for $0 instead of looking at new phones which are only mild upgrades and probably wont be worth the fee to move up.

It was the same phone, a 6+. Apple support is a good idea to try.

The final straw happened.  My phone died with 40% battery left and would not turn on. Plugged it in, had 37% battery.  And also got 2 missed texts from Sunday.

Friday I get the new iPhone :excited:

In Sept/Oct I get the iPhone 7 :excited:

Sounds like it's time to dump that crappy iphone and get a real phone!!

Side note, my Note5 is possibly the best phone i've ever owned. The battery life on it will last a solid two days with heavy usage.

I'm dumping this crappy iPhone 6 for the vastly superior iPhone 6S today!  :excited:

I'm glad you finally found a good android phone, it's only taken you 10 years to get a good one
