Long story short, my 6+ has touch disease, I can't be without my phone for even a day (due to work), thus I purchased an unlocked iPhone 7 plus. However, I was trying to hold out for an iPhone 8.

My understanding is that, if I give Apple $150, they will give me a replacement 6+ that may have the touch disease again down the road. I have an appointment with them this week to check this.

Because I need a working phone everyday, at this point I am considering just keeping the iPhone 7 plus and selling when iPhone 8 comes out... (Maybe I'd get like $400 for it tops?) Anyone else been in a similar situation, what did you end up doing?

Thanks!
 
They gave me a 6s Plus as a replacement. Doesn't mean they will always do that, but you can find out...
