And we're off! Rounded edges comes to the first turn, with chamfered edges close behind. It's neck and neck as we come up on the back stretch. Wait a minute coming up fast on the outside, it's.....no can't be ... Samsung android. Rounding the back turn glass front and back takes a slight lead, chamfered edges recovers and comes up fast. Samsung android runs out of power and starts to lag big time. Coming up on the finish rounded corners takes the lead........ It's rounded corners racing through to the finish with chamfered edges half a length behind.
We have a winner ladies and gentlemen. Walking to the winners circle is rounded corners, bread and raised at the 6s stables. This ends the macrumor's Preakness. This is your announcer, what the HEK, asking you to please join us for the next triple crown thread race. Featuring pixel pony and a amoled display as they race for the macrumor's cup.
I'm ready. Can't wait. I've been holding out on a new iphone since the end of 2012. Switched to the Dark Side
) cause I wanted a phablet and Apple didn't deliver. Next came the 6+ which to me looked clumsy (still does) and just 1 GB of RAM. Than the 6s+. Same clumsy design (I do love the regular 6 design, but on the + those bezels look huge). So I forced myself to use my Note another year. I'm not spending a little under a 1000 euro on a phone that I don't like the look of. I do hope Apple comes up with a more elegant + design. I don't mind at all if it's a little fatter and we get some extra batterylife, but please trim those bezels. Wouldn't mind if they switched to an oled screen either, because I'm already anxious for having to play the screenlottery (which I hate) if they stick with lcd.

Complain when phone gets lighter and thinner, complain when phone gets heavier and thicker.
Ready, currently on iPhone 6 from sept. 2014. New design is the best iPhone feature there is, everything else will be a nice bonus. "S" models last longer in both support and value, but new design is always more exciting.
And maybe, just maybe, if the 7 isn't that great I'll just get the iPhone 8. It's not like my 6 is going to fall apart...

Well I was waiting for the 7+ but I caved. I was able to get a brand new LG G4 for less than 300 euro's after a cashback from LG. That was just to good an offer. I would have preferred the 7+, but the G4 still is a pretty good phone with a great camera. And a 700 euro price difference is just too much for my liking. I freed up the funds for the Air3 coming september.

When i was using Galaxy S6 i got used to fast and wireless charging. I'd like to see those in next iPhone.

I got in on the same deal in the States. Except I ended up getting 2 LG G4's, they cost me nothing.
$100 instant savings
$300 trade in credit with trade in of crappy $9 tracfone
$200 LG Rebate
$300 double dip credit via text once the phone was activated
Verizon actually paid me $300 to take their LG G4 phones. Also picked up an S6 and a Note 5 for nothing as well. All solid devices in my opinion and I hate Android based phones. They're slow, laggy and just hideous. Until now do they finally have their UI in order where it's lag free surprisingly. It might even be smoother than iOS and that's coming from an Apple fanboy!
As for the iPhone 7, my 6+ will be off contract finally and I'll be good for an upgrade. I'll end up picking up the 7 no questions asked and probably also will get the Note 6.

2 G4's, a S6, Note 5 and 6+. That's 5 phones. And add to that a 7 and a Note 6. You're either really into tech or have been ordering for the family.
So far I'm actually enjoying my G4. It's smooth (I must say Android Lolipop is better than I expected) great screen and camera and the LG skin isn't too bad. The Marshmellow update for it is already anounced. Replaceable battery and sd card is great too. Now I have to find a way to make it connect to my iMac. That's going to be a tough one. Glad I have Windows pc aswell.

I'm still using the 4S (might replace it with 5S) for my use there's no reason to start replacing. I will like one
I really like your style. I'm not kidding.
I'm always interested in whatever they have coming down the pike, but as much as I'll be reading about the 7, I will NOT be replacing my 6s. This phone is a champ, unlike my 6 which was a dog right out of the gate in many ways. Whatever cool stuff is packed into the 7, I'll just keep reminding myself the 7s will be all that and a bag of chips. When looking back at the 6 and 6s, it's a pretty stark difference between them in regards to features and performance. My usually cycle alternates between a phone I keep for a short time, then one I keep for at least 2 years.
LG Optimus V - 2.5 years.
Samsung Galaxy Exhibit II 4G - 4 months or so.
Samsung Galaxy S3 - 2 years.
iPhone 6 - 1 year (I consider this short)
iPhone 6s - Plan is 2 or even 3 years, but I'll be satisfied to make it to 2.
I could very well be underestimating the iPhone 7's potential to suck me in. I will do my best to remain strong.

Because I clicked on "New Posts", saw the question and answered it.
Why do you ask, and why are you here?
