Apple iPhone 6s Plus

Does anyone know?

Apple slow down your phone and hides it, and then they ask you to pay them to replace the battery which they say is the only reason they slow your phone down(when in reality this is programmed obsolescence). Dont buy this nonsense and consider a non-Apple phone next time around.

..until I saw they were all 16GB. Can get an unlocked refurbished 64GB 5s for 279.99 on Groupon. 16GB is almost useless.

...how can we longtime customers benefit?

I have a 5C that won't support Night Shift. Until today that was the only reason I was anticipating 9.3. Apple yet again shows their arrogance... My 5C supports greyscale and screen color inversion without a hitch in the accessibility preferences, yet my phone isn't powerful enough to warm the color temperature on the screen. My Windows XP computer from 2003 has the capability to choose a warm color temperature, Apple is just ridiculous these days.

The article mentions the 6(s)(+) line of iphones but not the new SE, is that a deliberate omission?

*cough* "3D Touch". You know I really got to hand it to Apple for their B.S. marketing. They are absolutely ruthless. Using the term "3D" and "Retina". Such a crock.

The thing is, had Samsung or any other manufacturer came out with Force Touch first, it would be a gimmick. But when Apple does it, It's "groundbreaking!", "innovative", "a game changer" and best invention since sliced bread. It's ridiculous how the media and tech bloggers literally bow down and kiss Apple's a$$ any chance they get. Especially the d-bags over The Verge. They're the worst. Force Touch a game changer? Are you f*cking kidding me? Samsung came out with something similar first, there are hardly any apps to take advantage of it and won't be for a while. Not to me...

Apple is the king of the patent trolls, so it Is kind of karmic.

Then again, WARF is kind of a patent troll organization themselves, I mean how many colleges sue for patent infringement? When you read some of the other suits they have filed for their "patents", Id say some of them definitely Are bogus, patent troll type.

And if you read the long boring contested patent where they try to dazzle with 50 pages of deep technobabble, its not exactly breaking new ground, its when a CPU makes a wrong prediction, it makes a table of those mistakes to help it predict more accurately next time.

That's a basic feature of most CPU's for years, some even before their patent, and just because everyone else (like Intel) just rolled over and pa...

But really, was anyone going to use that patient for anything massive or significant? We know the answer to that.


Apple should pay them fairly of course - but being real for a second, they were the only ones who were making significant use of it.


Any REAL scientist or inventor doesn't patient ideas/inventions. If you don't believe me, watch Cosmos - so many geniuses opted out of making a fortune or claiming intellectual property, because they were interested in FAR more than just money or fame.

They should enforce an injunction against all infringing iPhones immediately.

I find it hilarious how patent cases tried in Apple's home town always go in their favor. But as soon as someone tries one in a less biased court we find out what the law really thinks of Apple's shenanigans. Lucy Koh must be furious.

What goes around comes around. Sweet.

Apple charges like $650 retail for their phones, but are too cheap to spend $2 extra (if even that) putting in gaskets in their phones to make them water proof. Other makers that make sub $200 phones can do it, but not Apple. Their phones are all sealed up with non-removable batteries or back covers, but they're too cheap to add that little extra bit of protection for your phone. Maybe when the iPhone 17 comes out, they'll finally spend that $2 extra to protect your $650 phone. That's just one more reason why I don't like Apple and won't ever buy their garbage.

The agreement presented has a clear statement that Apple Care is inclusive of the deal. The agreement becomes tacit when reading it and seeing that What happens is the whole agreement falls apart and becomes a bait and switch, when customers realize they must pay $129 for something that is advertised as inclusive, and in fact is not, and should be optional. That is false advertising and is lacking good faith toward customers.

Being an ex Wireless employee of 8 years I would LOVE to see companies to figure protection into the costs. Many times people don't get insurance on a payment program because "I've never needed it before" then something happens and it is all of a sudden the store's fault they broke the device. How dare you keep charging me monthly for something I broke, I demand you replace it! OR they try to trade up a device during a payment program with damage are get all upset because "that crack across the screen shouldn't fall under not functioning." No matter how hard you explain it to a customer 9 out of 10 times they will come back and blame you for them breaking their phone.

We are required to have health insurance and car insurance...phone insu...

They didn't require the AC . They listed the option and I chose not to take it because the devices have 1yr coverage anyway and they allow you to upgrade every year.

AppleCare is good for two years, they will allow you to switch to the next bottle as it becomes available. Being next year this time. You just dropped $129 for a two year insurance on a phone which is tied to that phone. So next year, you have to do this all over again. Am i wrong in this??

Nothing comes for free. And nothing comes cheap.

Sprint will literally pay customers an allowance of $50 a month to be on their service. One customer had this to say about the deal "I think it's great that Sprint cares so much about the customer." On whether or not he'd miss his previous service provider, "That's the best part. I'm keeping my T-Mobile phone, and now Sprint is paying the bill!"

Its like reading the Sunday Newpaper Autosection, where some VW dealer is going to lease you a Passat Diesel Limited Edition for $89 per month.
