Im not having any issues like this... however, i do have an issue with messages locking up; which causes me to force it closed then reopen.
Got a tip for us?

No, calling attention to it on Apple's discussion forums helps bring the issue to public attention.

There's PLENTY of discussion about this issue here. Don't be upset that MR decided to write an article about a trending issue. It's all about calling attention to it, not hiding it.
No issues here so far. Using about half storage and 45 apps. Just still getting 5-7 MBps down and up at best. AT&T sucks here.
It could be over time. The Samsung EVO issues didn't appear until later and people noticed their Read/Write rates plummeting.
I've experienced this a few times myself. As for reboots, I haven't seen any of those. I do have about 75gb free.
not here
I have seen more than the usual iphone reboots with my 128 gb 6+, but i attributed that to a buggy iOS. No boot loops yet (knock on wood, throw salt, etc)
I do see sometimes where the phone becomes unresponsive for a few seconds or even minutes. sometimes it comes back, sometimes it reboots.

I sometimes ge the crashes and/or boot issues (perhaps once every 3 days)? I have a gold 128gb 6 plus. And no, I'm not imagining this. I just didn't take care before I read the article in question.
Random scenario: taking a photo (happened last sunday during gold), i get the apple logo (thinking it's restarting) but it just loops in a couple of seconds.

The only thing I find interesting in this report is the different NAND flash being used.
Has anyone bothered to test the performance differences between the 64gb model and the 128gb model?
If the 64gb model is noticeably faster, I might save the 100$ and stick with that model again.

500+ apps? Good grief, how can you even remember what you have installed and what they are for?
Heck if I know. I suspect most of these folks probably only use maybe 50 of the apps at any time and probably only maybe 10 of them on a daily basis. But they insist on having that much with them all the time.
Anandtech did their first analysis of NAND performance but didn't breakdown between storage capacities. The 6/6+ are largely the same at least between the same capacity.

If it were, as some have suggested, that the 128 is using a different storage and its defective somehow then you would likely see issues as well.
And you bring up a good point with automatic updates. That is another question to ask. Is it on and is there any correlation between crash occurrences and something updating.
Actually the article is speculating that it might be hardware. The fact remains that they do not know the cause, so could very well be software.
