No. Like OLED screen, wireless charging, water resistance, and less bezels late.
No, thank you.
OLEDs that burn in
Water resistance that only works when dry
And fragile/fake bezels.

You're wasting your breath/energy with Axo. Trust me.Apple could dump Samsung and they would hurt way more than Apple. Apple does not put its eggs in one basket.
The last iPhone is a fantastic device btw.
That post really creeps me out. It's a sort of weird 1984 group-think mentality where war is peace, etc.Apple could dump Samsung and they would hurt way more than Apple. Apple does not put its eggs in one basket.

Apple relies on Samsung way more than the reverse. You do realize, a lot of the chips in an iPhone are from Samsung right? I don't see anything from Apple in the S7.
The flagship Galaxy phones have come with 32GB base model for a while now, Apple is still stuck in 2011. The iPhone 6 Plus I bought last year (with a paltry 1GB of RAM) is now uselessly slow. Seriously, trying to use Safari on it is a nightmare, it's an awful phone. But my Galaxy S6 is still wicked fast. More RAM, more storage, WAYYYYYY better display, the list goes on and on...
Specs matter. And most of the Apple fanboy criticisms of Android really don't work anymore. Android 6.0 is amazing, it's buttery smooth, fast, and has way more features than ios.
I've owned iphones since 2007, and if Apple hadn't screwed up with such awful disgusting specs these past few years I would still be buying them. But seriously, the iPhone these days is a truly awful device.
You mistake me for a fanboi. I simply asked what the benefits were.
I'm only speaking as a consumer.
Tim Cook has every reason in the world to release a useless product if he believes enough people can be fleeced of their money. The guy is still releasing 5400 spinners in $2500 computers in 2016.
hyoerbole much? 1984 really? I love working with my 6s, it's fast and the ease of "just works" of some the features especially FaceTime and iMessage with family scattered all over the place.That post really creeps me out. It's a sort of weird 1984 group-think mentality where war is peace, etc.
The iPhone used to be good. Past tense. Today, it is basically an expensive locked down mid-range Android phone. HTC's new flagship really is better in every way.
Specs matter, they really do, regardless of how much koolaid you drink. It's why my 1 year old 6 Plus with its puny 1GB of RAM is already choking and freezing and my Galaxy S6 is still ridiculously fast. No amount of clever advertising or koolaid can fix bad specs.
In this analogy, Apple is the Honda Civic. Super tiny, underpowered, cheap build, flimsy controls leaving it a clunky experience.
Dell (Alienware?) would be a Ferrari. powerful, flashy, and all about the experience.
And just not engineered as well iPhone. In the meantime while dell struggles, Honda is the most valuable company and brand in the world.In this analogy, Apple is the Honda Civic. Super tiny, underpowered, cheap build, flimsy controls leaving it a clunky experience.

Not surprised. It was only a matter of time. iPhones have been stale for a long time now and the smoke and mirrors are beginning to fade. The branding keeps Apple afloat but as consumers become wiser, they will choose different products that are more innovative.
Apple had their run and milked it for all its worth. They were able to get away w/ minimal changes and knew people would still buy it (strike while the iron is hot). That snooty attitude is bound to catch up.

no.. I'm right. Normal adults won't waste money on an iPhone.. They need to change the model.No they won't. Keep making statements, they don't equal fact just because you type them.
I must have missed the context on this nicely written hyperbolic point on why I upgrade my Idevices?no.. I'm right. Normal adults won't waste money on an iPhone.. They need to change the model.

No provide no retort and today's earns are just a glimpse... and that is 65% of their sales... not good.<pacification>
Okay, you're "right" - I'll agree so we can move on.

Welcome to Hyperbole Superbowl, AKA MacRumors.
As far as I can tell, the benefit of a curved screen is this:
When you are in a situation where you can look at your phone, but for some reason the phone is placed screen side down, you can see notifications on the curve at the side of the screen.
I have never been in this situation yet though.
Its funny how some people like the poster you replied to reach the conclusion that Apple users are hypocritical fanbois - its often if one person says they don't like something, and someone else entirely later says they do like something = Apple Fanboi - as though the views of any individual somehow always represent the views of everyone.
I'm sure I had the same thing thrown at me about the larger screens, as I expressed an opinion that I preferred smaller screens. Did I end up buying an iPhone 6? Nope. A 6S? Nope. An SE? Yup.
And even if I do end up buying a larger screened iPhone at some point, it won't necessarily be because I prefer a larger screen - it will be because, having weighed up all the pros and cons, I'll have decided the larger screened iPhone comes out top, even if I might have some reservations about the screen size.
And even then - if I do decide I quite like, or prefer, the larger screen after all - it wouldn't make me a hypocrit - I would simply have changed my mind. Which is allowed for anyone else, except an Apple user who would obviously be a hypocrite and a fanboi.
Sorry, rant over.

Whilst I take your point, is there a reason you rounded $1499 up to $2500?
A nett
a better display and a better camera will get OLD? Really.. keep telling yourself that.

This isn't even news.. inferior screen, camera, video, design, and battery life compared to the s7 edge. Shall I go on, or are you happy living in denial.
Man this guy just talks out of his rear end but knows that every stupid rumor site will publish his stuff as though it's the gospel. There's not one thing in this research note backed up by facts.
Why? Do you doubt the claims that a device with 3 times the ram might actually perform better?That's where I stopped reading ...
Denial? What of? If you are happy living in the world you currently reside. Good for you mate... I'll live in the real world.-Better SoC.
-3D Touch
-Much better finger print.
-the s7 battery has like 800 mAh more so it makes sense that battery life is better.
Also you do understand the s7 is brand new whereas the 6s is half way through its life cycle?
Let's not talk about customer service and software.

And when you really think about it, it shouldn't make us Apple customers proud. It makes us look like fools that overpays for a sub-premium product.But Apple is still earning more than 90% of all smartphone profits.
Your overpaying, I'm not. I got my money's worth already.And when you really think about it, it shouldn't make us Apple customers proud. It makes us look like fools that overpays for a sub-premium product.
That is your opinion. Let's just talk numbers, instead of feelings. What kind of premium device comes withYour overpaying, I'm not. I got my money's worth already.
