    I just bought a 32gb iphone 7 and don't know If I made a mistake please reply!!!

    Sounds like a deliberate choice by Apple not just due to the smaller size based on other manufacturers 32gb phones. From Forbes: https://www.google.com/amp/www.forb...iphone-7-slow-32gb-storage/amp/?client=safari And yet this isn?t a full defence, in fact it?s rather disingenuous. To use this...

    Best way to charge the 7+

    Exactly what I do, although I normally only charge at night when I go to bed as its near impossible to kill the Plus during a normal day.

    iPhone 7 Hissing/Noise Under Load

    Are you seriously comparing a video card to a phone? I have been a Silent PC builder for years and the video card fan and mechanical hard drives are two of the worst offenders for PC noise. Small fans running at high speed are hard to dampen the sound. SSD's took care of the mechanical HD...

    iPhone 7 Hissing/Noise Under Load

    Anyone getting noise from their iPhone 7Plus under load? Not what I want to hear from my $1k investment. I've not noticed this on my 6s Plus so I wonder if it's due to the new chip in the 7. https://www.google.com/amp/s/9to5mac.com/2016/09/17/iphone-7-plus-hissing/amp/?client=safari

    case or no case?

    I usually use a thin case like the Air Skin but bought one of the Hemp wraps from SlickWraps on 420 and it has the best grip of any skin I have tried. Fits very well also. No drop protection but provides the additional grip I wanted without the bulk.

    How many phones have you owned in the last 12 months?

    Oneplus One, Nexus 6, Note 4, iPhone 6 Plus and OnePlus Two. Using 6 Plus and see no reason to upgrade to 6s Plus. Plan on picking up a Nexus 6P to play with.

    iPhone 6s Plus or iPhone 6 plus

    Love the 12 month cycle. Just picked up a 64gb 6 Plus with AppleCare until September 18, 2016 for $510 to replace the wife's 16gb 6 Plus. I'll sell her 16gb with a couple of extra cases and should only be out less than $50. Can't justify $849 for the 64gb 6s Plus + $129.99 for AC + tax =...

    Smaller battery?

    When you have a house full of teenagers using a phone on the go battery life is a big issue. Making the phone thicker for increased battery life would be much appreciated. The 5s did not get complaints that it was too thick. With the rounded edges incorporated into the 6 design this extra...

    Smaller battery?

    Each iteration should improve on the previous version. If you look at most any smartphone poll, battery life is typically the #1 item. To make the battery smaller and rely on "optimization" to remain status quo is a sellout. I went with the 6 Plus just for the battery life but others in my...
