Amazing

Mikey P · Jan 9, 2017

Interesting.

I read it all. The best thing is screen size on my IPhone 6 Plus. It took forever for apple to get past a 4 inch screen.

I no longer have screen envy!

Because size matters!

I remember the launch... 3 devices in one. iPod, camera and phone. It's true that this one device does it all. The interface was what changed everything in the phone and made using it easy. Just tap. I'm still on ATT because of the first iPhone. I'm with Sam on the bigger screen.

Why the hell did they get rid of the phone jack?

Make it water proof. Think they got tired of replacing phones that were accidentally dropped in the toilet every time they release a new model. Also kind of cool to shoot a video in the pool... I'm waiting for the next one though.

Hahahah iSheep.... make it waterproof..right. As I'm holding a perfectly fine Xperia in my hand that is waterproof and has a jack. And also SD card slot.

They got rid of things to continue with the same old force buying crap they've subjected all the followers for years and years.

I mean come on...they give you wireless earbuds....only to then sell you cords to not lose them and keep them together... so why the heck not just stay with the wired earbuds??

Keep believing iSheep...

Courage.

Lol, that's what Fred's boy Tim Cook said.

I sprung for the 7 about 6 weeks ago. I don't miss it but I've been using a toof for years.

I still think Steve Jobs was onto something with a smaller handset. I hope the next one maintains the larger screen with a smaller body. Bezels should be gone. I really prefer a 1 handed device. I think the home button will be gone too, leaving the potential to get small again.

Wires and the need for ports galore are going away.

Watch, all the other flagship phones will FOLLOW suit.

My Powerbeats 3 get 12 hours of continuous battery life and charge an hour in 5 minutes.

But I'm a sheep...

it's also funny how the iHerd gets the most defensive over their stuff..

And also funny how you don't hear anyone else refer to their phone by name like iPhone-ers. :lol:

Zee · Jan 9, 2017

Don't worry Russ... to me it's all funny.

I don't think I could care less about who uses what.

Russ T. · Jan 9, 2017

I'm not upset. I've never directed any animosity toward Android. I used the Galaxy series for years with US Cellular. They are great devices, I just prefer the iPhone (sorry to type the word).

I think it's slightly more complicated than a huge company taking advantage of millions of sheep.

Wires suck and I can wait until they are a thing of the past.

The Pixel was a pretty compelling choice when I bought the iPhone 7.

I miss my flip phone my apple 6 is good for blocking bothering calls. jz.

No one got defensive but you. Don't worry, your phone should have all the features from the iPhone 6 copied just about the time the iPhone 8 is released. :hopeless:

Is that funny? :icon_razz:

No. All these phones are amazing and the differences are so small that it doesn't make too much difference...unless you get an exploding battery model. Apple users do pay more for Apple products...because they are just better. :very_drunk:

you mean the 8 will have features that many android phones were sporting couple years ago?

Russ T. · Jan 9, 2017

People FREAKED OUT about the single port on the new 12" retina MacBook too.

I think it's positively simple and all I need. The mobile processor is efficient and runs COOL without any fan.

The W1 chip is a real improvement for Bluetooth, which Apple developed.

None of it is perfect. It's just hard to listen to people talk about how horrible it all is and how there isn't any innovation.

My wife's 3 year old MacBook Air still works great and she loves it. I tried to talk her into a newer model. It wouldn't work so the Kid got a new one :headbang:

.

Hold it next to my new MacBook and there is clear innovation and forward thinking happening. It's 2 pounds and the same size as the iPad of 4 years ago.

My wife had a hp all in one laptop tablet.
Microsuck put out an update 2 weeks after we got it and it knocked the wifi out.

There is no rf45 on the new book so I
Downloaded the latest drivers from
Hp used a USB drive and installed them it worked for a minute then died agian.

I use an iPad rarely do I use a pc for anything anymore.

I talked her into the iPad Pro with Logitech key board.

She got it home and cried for a day over not being able to keep the super cool hp.

2nd day crying
Stopped 3rd day she won't let me touch her IPad Pro.

Why does she like it because it just works.

She's had it a year and I haven't been called in but for 5 minutes of tech support to load an new update.

Mikey P · Jan 10, 2017

I couldn't function with out my dual 23"monitors pc.

Desk Jockey · Jan 10, 2017

I have couple here that have 2 monitors.

Sam even thinks she needs 3 monitors but so far she hasn't convinced me. Someday maybe, she never gives up on asking! lol

steve_64 · Jan 10, 2017

I got six pens and a pad of paper for my birthday from my daughter.

If not for having this business I wouldn't have a cell or internet. Genny is another story. Her oldest son wants nothing to do with it neither.
