Disappointed I sold my 6S

Yes. Looking through a forum is basically selecting all the worst case situations, because people come here to complain or find help. My iPhone 7 is great, and it's an excellent upgrade from the iPhone 6. But from a 6S... You'll like the 7, but will it be worth the price for you? Idk.

The way I see it, if I'm paying monthly on a phone, it may as well be the newest one out. Also, I was never really happy with the volume on the 6S, I found it hard to hear in noisy environments while on the phone. Even speakerphone wasn't that loud to me.

Regarding the "yellow" screen issues. I hope people realise that "true tone" makes the screen go yellowish if your under anything but bright white light. Turn true tone off to see an immediate difference in which your screen turns blue white. And no, I'm not getting mixed up with "Night Shift"

Yeah but i think you need to realize iPhone DOES NOT have true tone.

Why yes, you're correct. I watched the keynote at 2 AM my time. Seems I totally miss heard that. Interesting that they didn't bring it to the iPhone. I enjoy it on my iPad Pro.

There is something new with the display though. Something about wider color range I think. Not sure exactly what they said during the keynote.

Yes. The iPhone Upgrade Program is excellent for that. I started that with the 7. Also, the speakers on my 7 are awesome! The speaker in the earpiece adds so much more to the phone's sound.

Like the title says, I'm not happy I sold my 6S to get a 7 plus.

I learned the hard way that newer is not always better... in AppleLand.

Especially with iPhones.

Now I always keep the current model, buy the new one and evaluate it _ before _ getting rid of the previous model.

This is the first year I have passed and not purchased the latest iPhone... And I'm just thrilled that I didn't waste the time and money.

Pressing a button to change volume is so old. Just ask Siri to do it. XP

Like the title says, I'm not happy I sold my 6S to get a 7 plus. I figured now was the time to sell it in preparation for the 7 plus, so I picked up a mint 4S as an "in the mean time phone" and now with some of the issues with the 7 and the 7 plus, I'm regretting my selling my 6S. I know there always are some initial bugs needing worked out, but I really hope I didn't make a big mistake. Don't even get me started on using the 4S, LOL!

I've not had a single issue with my 7. The display is slightly on the warmer side compared to the 6s I've noticed, but I definitely don't have a "yellow" screen. My speakers sound just fine, my waterproofing is fine (I tested it myself), my cameras are fine; overall I have a solid unit and I'm a happy customer.

Too many people here think an overly blue white is correct colour

It is no different than those people with the blue headlights. Blue is one of the worst colors for our eyes at night so it makes it harder to see in the dark especially if your headlights are blue. It gives you the impression you actually see better than you really are. White at 5500K during the day is the most optimal imo and is so much better on the eyes.
