I use mine for: phone, text, Whatsapp, email, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Safari, YouTube, camera, video, and of course Tapatalk to write on here.
I don't play games really on my iPhone, and find the device fluid and generally a pleasure to use day to day. I really enjoy iOS overall.

The cell phone allows me to leave the office and still take care of my customers. No games, no videos and NO social media. The camera does come in handy and my phone holds my schedule.
From the looks at what most of you use your phone for . . . . you are not working.

Actually I work 8-12 hour shifts, 4 - 5 days a week.From the looks at what most of you use your phone for . . . . you are not working.

Yes but whilst you're at home watching tv, using your computer, or playing video games, some of us are glued to our phones. You can hold down a full-time job and still manage to drain a 6S+ battery daily. I do.

LOL! Not home watching TV, what a waste of time that would be. I have 31 employees right now and you would never be one of them if you used your phone for gaming enough to kill a S+ battery.

I do zero gaming, either on my phone or on a dedicated games console. I just do a ton of other stuff on my phone. Why does number of employees come into this, or how much I use my phone if it doesn't affect my job in any way?
Give the guy a break, Newtons Apple. His 6S + has a Samsung Chip!you used your phone for gaming enough to kill a S+ battery.
J/K
The number does not have anything to do with it, why do you ask? Does it bother you?
Sorry can not believe that it does not affect your job but what ever you say as I do not wish to argue.
Have a great weekend.

LOL! I agree.
I still have no idea what chip my S+ has but it has performed without flaw.
I love it when the 'higher than thou' swoop in to assume the work ethic of others based on their listing of what they do with their phones. As if those who work an 8+ hour day, in which they, like myself, are awake for 19 of the 24 hours, couldn't possibly find time to use our phones other than while at work. You know, such as perusing forums enough to amass thousands upon thousands of comments in a year's time

And do not forget the bottom feeders who feel there is a need to comment.
Sometimes it takes those bottom feeders of the world just to keep people honest....And do not forget the bottom feeders who feel there is a need to comment.
