I got my phone. Family likes it. (think this is a long term color, very classy and undated)

The very first thing I did, when taking it out of the box, I put a tempered glass screen protector on it. No wipes no dust. Factory fresh virgin glass on both the screen protector and my brand new phone.

The color. I can see how some are thinking it's pink, but it's not.

If you compare it to the gold iPhone, it's still gold but warm gold, vs cold gold.

It's more coppery than pink. So the redness is apparent. I have worked with copper, including plumbing and highly polished decorative copper pieces. I know all the shades of copper, and the Rose Gold is one of them. It's very subtle in the same way that the gold iPhone is "Champaign" like. - Not very deep.

I am updating to the latest firmware, and then performing a restore. I also added it to my developer's device list. :)

Received mine tonight. Took only 30 minutes to back up to iTunez and restore it on the 6S+ -- works like a champ. FYI, the Spigen Neo Hybrid EX case looks quite sharp with the Rose Gold. I'll post a picture here in a bit.

The 6S+ is sure fast and the extra RAM helps. The 4K video is also very impressive!

Glad you have it!! My restoration process was the only bad thing. I do this every year and I make the store I get it from restore everything for me but this time I did it by myself and none of my apps returned. I had to re-download ALL of them. Took a while but it was okay. I loved my phone too much to be upset about it lol.

What kind of glass screen protector do you have? I'm going to shop around for one today.

i JUST got one the other day. Honestly, i've NEVER had a screen protector but my friend had one and i liked his so i got one..
I have the ZAGG invisible shield-glass. It actually feels better than the iphone screen and has a lifetime warranty. If you get a new phone for some reason or it breaks, they'll send you a new one! I LOVE IT! and i HATE screen protectors!

I can't remember which I had with my 5 but Zagg sounds familiar and it broke so easily. I was disappointed :( Maybe they have updated since then. I will see what I can find today and get one!
 
So what kind of cases does everyone use or not? I'm using my old Apple Black Leather case, thinking of putting something a bit more protective on it and trying out a glass screen protector.
 
Just Arrived at airport,waiting to be put on truck for delivery.
Screen protector coming today as well. Battery booster tomorrow.
 
I woke up thinking my phone should be in town today. Received this message from UPS.. They forgot my phone


Louisville, KY, United States 09/30/2015 7:30 A.M. We left the package in our facility. This may cause a delay. We will deliver as quickly as possible. / Your delivery has been rescheduled for the next business day.[/QUOTEI
I would be sooooo mad. But then I have had "on the truck" messages for 4 days before i got anything....


I've had them forget it on the truck for 4 days...4 days of "on the truck for delivery" is HORRIBLE

Now on truck out for delivery by 4 pm

Ok, phone was just delivered.
But
phone was left on doorstep and had instructions for signature not required.
Interesting thought it was needed.
Lucky I work from home and we have a big deck to the front doors with lots a cctv.
Can't wait till quitting time to look at it
 
Did any of you sell your old phones? I know someone that will give me $350 cash for my old one (iPhone 6 - 64gb - silver). Is that a good deal?

I have to wait 14 days before AT&T will unlock my phone. You get more for unlocked phones. Others around the world then can buy it.
I have seen them going from 450 to 600 depending on numbers watching/bidding
