All the "benefits" I've experienced as an iPhone 7 owner.

See you in 6 months when your android craps out! Lol

But honestly the reason I stick with apple is because of the customer service and the shelf life of their devices. You simply can't beat it.

I work for a major wireless carrier and you'd be amazed the amount of troubleshooting issues I see from the android devices.

Maybe. I continue to buy them because they continue to offer the best experience on the market, from security and feature updates to available apps to technical support.

Fair enough. I wasn't trying to say all iPhone's are bad; I just don't think the iPhone 7 is very good. They remove a feature and add a few colours and suddenly people go wild pre-ordering it? Yeah I think I'll stay with my 6s, which does pretty much everything I need it to and lets me charge while listening to music out of the box. Maybe next year, providing the rumours are true, we'll see a truly revolutionary iPhone, and even if it doesn't have a headphone jack it will actually make up for it in other areas.

What features did they remove?

The time of revolutionary phones has passed.
 
I went to a 7 from the 6s. No problems with my phone. The battery life is better than it was on the 6 or 6s.

Ok. What are your qualifications for "revolutionary" or "better upgrade" out of curiosity?

Well some of the rumours so far suggest it'll have a whole new redesign, a curved AMOLED screen, wireless charging, and no bezels. There are more but even just those are pretty exciting for me personally.

A curved screen + no bezel == PITA

Putting a glass screen protector on it will be next to impossible. You might want to rethink how excited you should be.

This isn't the first year those rumors have been circulating. I wouldn't get your hopes up.
 
Besides headphone (since no 3.6 jack, we'll let that dead horse stay dead and not rez her lol), you stuff may be iOS related. I get op's issues (I have and use the 3.5 in my 6....I always get my tunes) as well on a 6.

2 different models of 6. Second model obtained since first one went black screen of death. She worked in that my line was taking messages and notifying me and if you called I could hear the phone ring. I just had a black screen I couldn't actually see this stuff or touch things to use the phone to do a damn thing with them.


Its iOS imo. My wife is still on 9. I have enough fun playing tech repair on mine with it being version 10 levels. I don't need to make hers unstable to add workload. My latest bug is sync dies in a fire. Sometimes my favorites for safara...aren't there. Been sharing these the same way for years no issues. Since 10, many problems I have had. Calendar sync dies too. hard power resets are solution 1. that fails...remove from icloud and reconnect is solution 2. I do this 1-2 times a week on my phone. why my wife is still 9, I don't need her phone spazzing on me too lol.
