So an lifeproof case and a backup battery?
While a case makes the phone bigger, being that Iphones aren't that big to begin with, That doesn't seem to be an issue. However, waterproof cases may be much better, which could make the whole deal too big given how some folks prefer smaller phones
If you need to attach a battery to the Iph, it's no longer got that compact size now.

Can't innovate anymore, my arse! rose pink guys.. ROSE PINK!

Actually, force touch is interesting, same with the better Camera. I'll still wait for the 7 when they get ride of that nasty bezel!

But andriod is quite tempting these days, I really like their kids mode.
Does no bezel mean not Touch ID? That stuff's amongst the more expensive components of iDevices, but it worked really well. Even though it's improved on Android, still a bit uneasy about the reliability of the fingerprint scanner on the Samsung Note 3.

I'm surprised the Samsung Edge series is doing as well as it is. That edge thing, much like this Force Touch seems more gimmicky to me. Then again, I've been wrong before, so we'll see :)
 
Can't say I would feel bad about that. Only the shareholders would.

There's also this scenario to consider: The people who could only afford to buy the 16GB model continue to see their phone more and more restricted every year thanks to apps growing in size, iOS growing in size, and better cameras creating larger image files. Those people say screw you Apple, I'm buying a Samsung because they'll give me a 32GB model for a good price while you continue to gouge us with a low base storage and ridiculous markups for additional storage.
Isn't there an option to take photos with lower MP count? That should cut down on the sizes of the images back to 5MP and 8MP days.

Also, ios9 is where they introduce "app thinning", where you only have the version of the app that's optimized for your device. So for example, if you have this Iph6s, then you only get assets for the 4.7" resolution. It cuts out 4" screens, Ipad, and Ipad Retina ones, and could reduce the size down to 60%. Of course, "down to" are the keywords, and developers have to implement this (assuming they're not forced to), but still... can't say Apple isn't trying.

I should clarify. When I mean no bezel I mean reduced benzil especially at the top. If you look at an iphone 6 plus, they are larger than a Note but small screen size because of the giant bezel at the top. I'm ok with the ID staying. Although I always found that it's wasted space beside the touch ID. I'm sure apple has played with options but hasn't found anything really useful, which I'm cool with.
