Just picked up my phone from the UPS CC and it's on the tail end of the restore and it's simply, amazing! The screen is absolutely beautiful and the weight is perfect. I was reading about people complaining about how heavy it was and it's not noticeable at all. Love it!

I hope everyone has a great iPhone day!

I'm standing in the reservation line at the moment and even though I've always had black-faced devices and I reserved space gray I'm about 98% sure I'm going silver this year. They are damn good looking phones...
 
Agree agree agree...I had the 6 Plus and the build quality feels better. I like the heavier feel. And I had a space gray before. The white/silver is so nice.

Congratulations! And you are lucky you get the blue betta fish on the box. :) I'm waiting for UPS for my rose golf and hubby's space grey. Ours are both 6S pluses so I'm glad to hear the weight isn't quite the issue some have made it out to be.

Had white and silver from the 4s through to 6s Plus, with a brief flirt with gold on the 5s. Best colour combo imho. Very "Apple"

Honestly. I'm surprised people actually dislike the added weight. It feels sturdy, like a week built piece of equipment.

You will love the White/Silver. I switched to that color after my 5. Always did black until they came out with the Space grey color and I never like it. Needed a change and haven't looked back since! Hope you get yours soon!

I am coming from the 6 so I have no reference other than that. The 6 is obviously lighter but the 6S Plus doesn't feel that much more. It does feel nice though!

I hope you get yours soon! Yeah, the weight is not what I thought it would be in terms of everyone complaining. It's a great weight and I have no issue with it.

Yup, I agree.


I got silver too, can't wait to leave work!

It's going to be fun! It's like Christmas! :D

Always heard that once you go black you'll....oh never mind. :D Enjoy your silver and white shiny piece of excellence.
 
Picked up a Gold 6S Plus. The added weight makes it feel quite sturdy. I like it. The Touch ID is super fast and I thought it was already fast on the 6 Plus. Glad that it can still fit my old case so no need to buy a new one.

So far the biggest deal to me is the performance increase. So far I've seen zero stutter, no lag, and I'm switching through apps and they're all holding their place in memory!

Thank you for mentioning that the cases fit from the previous generation

Which did you end up going with?
 
Same thing I got. Great looking phone coming from 5s. Makes iPad mini seem smaller than I recall.

I agree and mine is even sexier because I have it in the white silicone case. All white.
 
Look at all those sexy phones. :D

Love the superman wallpaper. Used to have that myself. Loving this phone. I gave my 6 to my mom this evening and she loves it. She had a 5. I held that thing in my hands and I couldn't believe I used a phone that small before. Lol
