I'm still hoping out hope they go with the small form factor 6s, but i'll wait to see. If not i may just upgrade my phone to the 5s 32 GB which Verizon still offers online. As I get older, I don't feel I need all the newest things on my phone.

Do people use the Apple Pay alot?

I use it quite a bit on my Apple watch.
 
Anyone taking bets on the title of this years wet your pants "phone-gate"?

Indeed, if I could go back on all of my iPhone/iPad purchases, I would only upgrade every time RAM got bumped. It's the best indicator for device longevity at peak performance because Apple tends to be a bit stingy on the amount of RAM they put in devices.

I feel the pain of 1GB RAM on my 6 Plus all the time. Open up podcast app. Pause and switch to Safari, browse a page or two for light reading. Then bring up Control Center to start playing podcast again and find the app has already been killed. :(
Yeah but. More ram uses more power, so that's the trade off apparently Apple wasn't prepared to make yet for the phones.
 
Im on the every 2 year program. I always skip the "s" versions.

now that i think of it, maybe ill switch it up i dunno...

What most people in the USA was start using the 3GS since it was on the new 3G bands. Hence with subsidize phone models people kept their 3GS and two years layer to the 4S. Hence a many people are S iPhone users. So think every two years from the 3GS.

Beside being a iPhone S user there are alreay made covers for your new phone. ;)

If all it took was 2 apps to kill your iPhone you would see a lot more complaints about ram.
