hello everyone I will be ordering a new iPhone in the fall of 2016 once it get released I have the 6s plus now

Experience with the 6 in 2014 battery was ok it was easier to use but it was to small for typing and it got replaced only one time

iPhone 6s Plus it's to big for me and battery is great also bad experience with apple care replaced 6 times the iPhone 6s Plus and screen replaced three times

Should I get the 4.7 inch 7 I can always get a battery pack and a otterbox case maybe better luck with the it

Should I get the 7 plus, pro and try to get better luck with it

I have both size and I like both battery is not an issue I can buy a battery pack from anker

Help me decide

I tested both the 6 and 6s plus

I've only replaced the 6 only once at Apple Store

On the 6s plus 6 times

If I go bigger again I will have more issues

If I go smaller less issues

That seems to be anecdotal evidence that doesn't really imply anything about the future.

I personally went for the iPhone 6 (4.7" model) because of the smaller form factor (and price tag).

Although I have bigger hands, the iPhone 6 Plus was still a hefty phone and a bit of an inconvenience. I personally prefer the size of the 4.7" iPhone, and will get the "regular" iPhone 7 when September rolls around.

You can't really make an informed choice until the ip7 annoucement.

You will have to wait.

If they have replaced your phone 7 times, you should feel lucky if they even sell you another iPhone.;)

What in the world do you do to your phone? The very few times I've had to use Apple Care they've been great. You've used them 6 times for the 6S? o_O I don't think the problem is with Apple Care.

theres always that. "one guy"

i doubt you've had that many problems with your phone to get it replaced, and the screen replaced so many times. unless you're one of those anal people who always complain about everything.

I am shocked. I would be back at the Apple store today demanding they clean that black spot out of my lightning port!
