I often wish for one side of my iPhone to flash fluorescent colours. Specifically, I think it'll help portray professionalism in the workplace. Plus, it'll go nicely with my company car and new sneakers.

But that is the fast and furious R34 and avengers sneakers !!!!! Both totally awesome!!!
Wireless charging sounds cool until you realize that all it does is limit you. You can't even pick up your phone to even play on it while it charges. Samsung brought a whole new meaning to wall huggers with wireless charging.
[Apple]: Alrighty folks here's our curved glass patent
[Samsung]: oh snap Apple's gonna make a curved phone, better make the Edge
[Apple]: Alrighty folks here's the iPhone 6 and Apple Watch
[Samsung]: 6 > 6

This is intriguing. My iphone 6 Plus is the worst phone i've ever owned. I've found myself longing for a flip phone lately. In my household, you can often see my wife and I shaking or finger punching our 6's trying to get them to function. Pure crap, Apple.
Well, Windows was so weak at the time I think it actually worked.
But it also embodied a lot of prejudice, and that was a bit too much.
You might want to check prices of 3rd party lightning cables and 3rd party charging pads..... Just saying
...fixed
That was one of the most annoying videos I've ever seen. That's 1:11 of my life I'll never get back.
It may be an iCloud problem. Try turning it off. Then take it into the store if that doesn't work.
Apple got something messed up here, but I don't think it's a problem with the hardware itself most of the time. In other words, it should be fixable. If not they usually replace your phones, under warranty - even if you don't have Apple Care. But don't wait too long until your warranty is up.
Never really thought of that... good point. For me, plugging in to charge is not a big deal.
"According to Samsung, demand for the Galaxy S6 Edge has been high, and it expects its profits to increase now that its newest devices have been on the market for a few months."
Statistics Show that the Galaxy S6 Edge isn't a Hit as Hyped
"In the ongoing status check of smartphones, Samsung Electronics is seeing lower-than-expected demand of its flagship Galaxy S6 phone in China, while Apple is seeing continued steady sales of its iPhone 6, according to analysts John Vinh and Michael McConnell of Pacific Crest Securities."
"We are concerned to see that AT&T had been offering a free Galaxy Tab 4 with the purchase of GS6/Edge during May. Despite the tablet promotion, we saw no upside to our sell-through estimates."

But how is that any different from placing your iPhone on a charging stand ? (Unless it charged much faster on the wireless). You know where it is. As the other person mentioned your phone can't leave the pad or it doesn't charge just like the stand. I guess the only difference is you don't need to connect the phone to the stand via the built-in lightning connector (although I don't know how anyone could have trouble with it). What I'd like to see is true wireless charging where you simply walk into a room set up to charge your devices and your device starts charging while simply being in the room.
Haha that nana thing was kind of funny. "Nana?". Really though this edge phone is lame, it's so odd to hold because it feels like it's baxkwards, like I'm holding a phone backwards. Screen looks nice but then it android so it doesn't really matter can't polish a turd
If they had come up with something like the small, magnetic changing pad used by the Apple Watch, that would be cool. But Samsung's huge charging pad takes up a lot of desk space even when not in use, and is too bulky for travel or to fit in a pocket.
What the other guy said... really... my iPhone 6 has been mostly really good. No problems with typing or touch recognition. Weird bluetooth issues, that's been a problem that I keep hoping for a fix.
Anyway... take it back... Apple will replace it. They are really good about that.
I usually couldn't give a flying f*** about these Samsung commercials, but this one was just plain bad. That edge, while admittedly kind of cool looking, just looks like a gimmick in this ad. Instead of bashing Apple, they would be better served highlighting its usefulness. When will they ever learn?
I like how even the theoretical Apple wireless charger is better designed than the Samsung one...
Also isn't a bit misleading to not show the iPhone's rear notification light functionality...

This is glorious. You nailed it...these "features" are gimmicks at best.
At least Samsung is making money. The swan song of RIM was silent suffering.
This must be comedy otherwise this comment is so "out there", that you must live on Tatooine and frequent the Cantina assiduously.
There there was the wireless recharger for the Palm Pre. An Avanti product if there ever was one!
As a person who owns both the 6+ and an S6 Edge (and as a person who used both cameras, especially over the last week...my cousin graduated from high school) I can say, my opinion of course, that the S6 absolutely destroys the iPhone in the camera department. Even my family agreed. They all took pics at the graduation, they weren't necessarily bad at all tbh. I showed them the pics I took on my S6, and talk about jaws hitting the ground. And don't even get me started on the front camera. The iPhone isn't even in the same league as the S6. And this is coming from an Apple guy.
I'm hoping Apple really updates the camera on the 2k15 iPhone. B/c its severely lacking and the arrival of the S6 and even the G4 really shows it.
