Why don't you pop into the Apple shop and have them swap out your old battery with a fresh one?

You can buy a battery online for less than $10. Shouldn't take you more than 15 minutes to swap the battery.

Not really into buying new phones whenever they come out.
Usually black friday is when I upgrade for cheap.

I agree. The 6s is too large. I suppose I'll get used to it over time.

2 months in and I STILL can't accept how big this 6 is on my hip. Might as well be a 6-shooter!!!

Add an option for both, por favor.

If I can change my Macbook Pro battery myself by watching a youtube video then anyone can do it.

Absolutely. I refurbed and iPhone 4 a couple years ago to use as my car's "iPod" using another mint condition one (I just needed the guts of the severely scratched up one). Just get the tools and get on Youtube, the battery is really easy to do.

You wear a belt clip?

iPhone 5s (mexican/Australian cell phone carrier) and iPhone 6+S (US cell carrier)

Agreed with what others have stated as far as if you're an android user simply to not be a "sheep"/follower, sorry to break it to you, but you're not the only one& a follower to the second mass after iPhone users.

There's a world of difference, Apple specialises in forcing you down a path, their path and their path only, trying to work around it is infuriating. Android at least let's you retain control of your data and how you process it.

Did I say otherwise?

I simply said that if that was your main motive as to why you don't have an iPhone, you're not special.

You don't need to educate me between the pros/cons on the phones. Owned both, obviously prefer apple.

bought the new samsung galaxy s6 edge 6 months ago on the first day it came out.

just bought the iphone 6s last week.

i always switch back and forth from android to ios. I like the 6s because the size I prefer a smaller phone. I wish they had the 5 size as a mini version.

ksa · 10-23-2015, 10:15 AM

Wasn't to be posted in it's own thread...

anyway ordered the Blackberry Priv which is the first Android by Blackberry. Excited for it.

RedlinePSI · 10-23-2015, 09:34 PM

I voted newer Android, but I do have an iPhone as my work phone. I think the point was more about what you purchased with your own money. But it's worth noting, i've had iPhones as second phones for years through multiple jobs, but I continue to buy Android for my personal phone.
