Exactly like I said. Harder substances are typically easier to shatter because there's less give. It may be more scratch proof, but not impact proof.
Sure, I get that. I guess that's why we still have front screens that still shatter. They'll get there soon enough with shatter proof on phone products.
 
Be patient. Just one more year. Don't let that dopamine run through your brain and get the best of you.

Don't get the iPhone 7. The wait will be worth it. It always is! Appreciate your headphone jack while you still have it, wait till iOS 10 is polished.

Everything you wanted will be in the next one. Wireless charging, an upgrade from LCD technology. It's coming. But save that money!

If you have the 6s you don't have to upgrade!
You're broke I guess?

The thing about the EarPods is they're prone to breakage. I have a very high replacement rate with them. I've replaced them more than 5 times this year. And already the EarPods I have right now, these are about to go. I'm seeing that the connector on this thing is just about broken.


Like I'm doing now!

I must be lucky because I haven't had any breakage from any EarPods. The only issue I had out of any of them was when I wasn't paying attention and accidentally sawed through the cord with my miter saw.
 
These threads crack me up. It is a stupid phone..... OMG, my brain is going to explode if I don't get the latest number!

Your tech will be out of date within a year. If you can afford to constantly upgrade, then good for you. I prefer to save my money and upgrade every few years. You know, because the next one will be better and stuff.
 
Quite the opposite.

At the Apple Store, I told the crowd I said. "Look at it. It's just a clone phone."

Just because you have money, doesn't mean you have to waste it.

Who are you to determine who is wasting money on iPhones or not? I'm pretty confident, if all your financial records were disclosed, the people of this forum would be able to find at least 30 things that they feel you're wasting you're money on. It's not your money, it's theirs. If they feel like spending it on an iPhone, that's up to them. Not up to you to determine if it's a waste or not.

You know you're right. That's why my main argument about not buying it is based on the merit of what the phone actually is and what it does.

Better to keep cost out of the equation. We'll put that on the shelf.

Now. Based on the iPhone 7 specs I recommend we wait!

Onto my second point that I want to make

Y'all seem hurt. Why are y'all so hurt? The backlash to this thread that I've received, I didn't expect this.

Especially when you think about the fact that the very same people on this thread recommended in droves not to buy the iPhone 5c. That was a clone phone. When you think about the fact that its being reported that the iPhone 7 Plus is the model to get this year, while they leave the iPhone 7 in the dust. These products are becoming more differentiated and so we must take certain measures and make certain decisions!

And that decision may not include buying every phone that comes out! Y'all have got to catch this!

Lol, freepomme... you really should refrain from stirring people up. We all know the real purpose of this thread is to get a rise out of posters. I mean come on...

If a buyer wants the new phone let them enjoy it. If you don't want the minor upgrade the 7 represents over a 6s then good for you. Others may enjoy just having a new phone and not really care about the specs.

Such a ridiculous and pointless thread.
 
I waited and skipped the 6s. I got faster phone, splash proof, better camera and better battery life. Next years phone will always be better than this year.

Don't buy that new computer! Next year they will have a better one!

I told y'all...

This thread is not meant to stop anyone who wants the 7 and has their heart set on it. People who have already made up their minds. "I'm going to get this 7!" I told you this.

But! There is another faction of people who are looking for the opportunity to skip. And what this thread is saying, is... This is it! This is it!

Those were the people this thread was created for. But! Like I said, since there's another faction of you here. Hey, maybe you want to take heed.

If you're truly not trolling, you need either a hobby, or a girlfriend. You sound like a religious zealot the way you're preaching. Don't like it. Don't get it. I'm pretty sure other people can make up their own mind without you.

Why can't you just buy your iPhone 7 and just be happy? Why are you in this thread? There's about 50 of y'all. I mean it's ju— hahaha. It's just funny.

And by implying that people on here need girlfriends, that sounds like an intolerant remark.

Let's remember: I told y'all before the iPhone 7 even came out that this was on the table. This may have just been what we were going to do. I TOLD y'all that!

The only thing is I don't know why y'all are doing what your doing. Which means I'm going to have to study y'all a little more.

Just because you have money, doesn't mean you have to waste it.
Just because you have keyboard, doesn't mean anyone cares.
 
If you don't believe me when I put all of the reasons why the iPhone 7 is a no-go, then I'm going to leave some links in the box.
