The iPhone 6S will reportedly still start at 16GB of storage

[saintforlife]

The 16GB iPhone has been Apple's entry-level option for some time now, despite being more than a little controversial. Still, despite some rumors to the contrary, it looks like the company is sticking with it: 9to5Mac reports that the the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus will have the same storage options as the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, starting at 16GB and moving up to 64GB and 128GB. On-contract pricing, the site also reported, will likewise stay the same as 2014 models: $199, $299, and $399 for each storage tier of the 6S, and $299, $399, and $499 for the 6S Plus.

Just regurgitating the same rumor from weeks ago...

Yeah I think we are all kind of resigned to this rumor now. It's disappointing if it's true. Since I always get the largest storage option it doesn't affect me personally. But it really screwed up things for my sister-in-law who didn't understand in practical terms what buying the lowest specced device meant. She does now, but lives on a tight budget since her layoff so she's stuck until she finds another job. We can't help her because the whole family is already helping out with her other expenses. It's aggravating to know it wouldn't cost Apple that much to upgrade the minimum storage. I've read the arguments against them doing that but I am still not moved by them.

This has been discussed a lot already.
