rumors are they are breaking their regular tick tock cycle. 2016 iPhone is a modest update from the 6, not a redesign. 2017 iPhone will be a drastic redesign to coincide with the 10th anniversary
could also be because multitasking like that on a phone sucksMy bet is that they still have phone patents for multitasking. That's the only feasible reason Apple could have to omit such an important feature.
heh, I was a 64gb kid. guess I'm moving up to 128.
Well really Apple and Google copied Samsung. Apple didn't invent split-screen or multitasking.

I'm kind of new to getting phones on launch day. Any one know of the 7th is really launch day? I can't find any info on Verizon's site, and I want to pre-order. Any estimates on month to month pricing?
"Lighting to 3.5mm Headphone Jack adapter with every iPhone 7" and hand gestures make me think this report is off on some parts. Some of it is plausible but hand gestures? The article says they could but might not, though, to be fair.
Fuck the adapter being included. Either remove it or don't. Don't let people half ass the transition without the pain of paying for an adapter.
Totally useless upgrade unless it has true multitasking. The giant size of the plus will never be justified until iOS stops sucking.
Stop quoting him. He's obviously trolling to rile up someone.Without the pain of paying for an adapter? Who the fuck do you think you are?

Me too. I'm just about managing with 32GB on iPad Pro, I think I'd be comfortable with 32 on an iPhone. Not having 64GB is almost as stupid as being stuck with 16GB on the base model for so long.
Alright, thanks for the info. I'm 1 payment away from being eligible for an upgrade. Last iphone I owned was the 4. Thought I'd come backPreorder day should be the 9th, launch day is the 16th or 23rd.
To estimate month-to-month pricing take the estimated full price of the phone and divide it by 24. I'm on the iPhone Upgrade Program through Apple which includes AppleCare in the cost and I pay $40.75 a month for a 6s Plus 64GB
Right but it was janky as fuck on Samsung devices I had used. Apple didn't invent it, they just made it work really well on a mobile device.
Why still offer 32gb? Seems way too small of a space offering.
I'm upgrading because my 6S battery seems to be draining faster as time goes by.
I'd be cool with a 32gb dark black plus.

I haven't even used 10 gbs in my 6s plus.
My 128gb iPhone 6 is 99% full all the time but I have a lot of podcasts, audiobooks, photography and music on my phone. I end up riding close to my 10gb data plan every month so I use offline storage as much as I can.
After two flights in a row where the inflight entertainment didn't work, I'm looking forward to having enough buffer room to fit a few movies on my phone just in case.
I'm on a bigger data plan now so I could stream more podcasts rather than hoarding them offline. But I wish apple would change how photos are synced. I'd like to be able to upload them to the cloud but delete them from the phone to free up space, just keeping favourites. Right now you can't do that
Same situation here.Would be a great upgrade from my iPhone 5 16 GB lol
Multitasking works fine on the Note 4, Note 5, S6 and S7.
So, no, apple weren't the first to "make it work really well".
It's silly, sure. But I doubt I'll really miss it down the line.
I use my standard earbuds at the gym and my QC25 everywhere else. I'd just leave the adapter on my QC25 and use the new lightning earbuds in the gym.
My problem is more with how relatively unstable the lightning connector is compared to the rock-solid 3.5mm jack.
Sounds hot except for the pants-on-head, fuck-my-earholes-bonkers removal of the headphone jack. What crap.
Seriously, I've got to carry around an adaptor to use the most common accessory ever with my phone? Sit and spin you dicks.
Guess I'll go with a 7S+ somewhere down the line.
The anti-AMOLED stuff in this thread is bizarre. I have a S6 for about a year now and the display is the best thing about the device. The quad HD minute detail and AMOLED colors are glorious and bring a smile to my face every time I use it.
It blows the iPhone's display out of the water. No image retention issue whatsoever too.
I'll definitely miss it. All of my headphones use, you know, headphone jacks and I have no intention of subjecting myself to whatever tinny garbage comes bundled with the phone.It's silly, sure. But I doubt I'll really miss it down the line.

Can we recommend front-facing speakers?
Also, re: colors, I wish they gave you the option of getting a white or black front with any back color. I love the gold back but would rather have a black front.
Also I plan to do the Apple store yearly upgrade program, do I pre-order at the Apple store to do it?
Ah, so that explains why Google's implementation of it in Nougat is an almost exact copy of Apple's method--because Samsung's was just so good and user friendly.
Seriously though, if you like how Samsung did it, that's great. I just happen to disagree with you. That's not to say I dislike Samsung or the stuff they make. But if their method of multitasking were so fantastic, you'd think Google would have implemented something similar into Nougat rather than the very-iOS-like thing they did instead.
But whatever. Our opinions don't match. Not a big deal. I still love you.
Yep. I've bent two of the stubby fuckers in the past year or so, and I'm not rough on my stuff at all.
Not true. At all. Have you used the newest iPad mini? The multitasking is amazing. In what capacity could you possibly think watching a video while browsing twitter/GAF sucks? Do you really not want to be able to FaceTime while operating features of your phone? Come on.could also be because multitasking like that on a phone sucks
My money is on the 10th anniversary device being exactly this. Bring back the OG curves and size, Apple. But with the same storage capacity and power as the larger iPhones.can we get a smaller SE with rounded edges?
Good upgrades but I want a new design. Next year it is.

It may not technically be Quick Charging but using a 2.1A charger will get a 6s plus from 0 to 100% in about two hours.Wonder if apple will ever adapt some sort of quickcharge tech?
quickcharge 3.0 and usb-c fast charging has spoiled me good.
I mean, the same form factor as the original, but bezel free. With a super HD display. No home button. No speaker. Totally futuristic monolith, all black front design.0% chance
There is no way in hell Apple will release a 3.5" 2:3 display in 2017.
Hopefully the 128GB will take the spot of the 64GB price wise if not I'll have to get the 32GB ugh
