    @DougNg:

    48 hours after getting my 6S…it's ok

    Battery life is impressive, screen doesn't seem like an upgrade to me from the 5S. If it is an upgrade, it certainly isn't the life altering experience as when I first saw Retina. I'm a little spoiled from my Macbook Pro Retina that I'm usually on.

    The camera is a noticeable upgrade. Pictures are definitely sharper and more vibrant.

    The "Hey Siri" function is weird at best. Maybe I'm old school, maybe I'm paranoid, but it feels like my phone is listening to me all the time waiting for me to address it.

    The new 3D press thing is less than useful to me. I'm pretty proficient with iOS already, so it doesn't add a lot of value to me.

    From 5S to 6S day to day the screen has been what impresses me most. I just look and stare at the screen more than I should.

    3D Touch will come with time, most apps don't support it. I like it on Photos where it pops up this time last year. It does save a little bit of time, but requires a consistent update in Apps before it's going to feel natural…

          Hahahaha.  It'll take one trip with @Madame Buttonfly to find out for sure, but there are definitely less holes for her to inject (at some force) coffee into the innards…..

              Nice. I definitely want to hear your thoughts after you have had a chance to use it.

                A friend has one, he raves about how great it is.  The global cellular feature is great, we were abroad together, he switched it on and he was given a list of data plans he could use and what the price would be.  Brilliant if the country you are in does not have data roaming.

                  price and data plans with a list, doesn't that depend on your subscriber back home though, for this feature to happen?

                      anybody ever had any problems with a none functional touchpad and/or keyboard on their MacBook pro? :-\

                      mine somehow isn't working anymore and after pressing the power button to shut it down and pressing it again to fire it up, I can't even move the courser or anything. a couple of seconds afterwards, a screen pops up and searches for a bluetooth keyboard…since it isn't even 6months old, this is pissing me off I have to say 😠

                      maybe one of you guys can help...would be cool, thanks. :-\

                        Never had that issue myself, but I always suggest going into the Apple store for hardware issues. Every time I've encountered a weird hardware problem they've fixed me up without a hitch. Especially considering that the computer is only 6 months old.

                              I need a new smartphone and I'm tempted to get the 7 with 128 gb.

                              On the other hand I never wanted to return to fekking Apple-iTunes and it is a wee bit expensive.

                              Decisions decisions.

                                It's hardly revolutionary but it is a great refinement of the iPhone.

                                  yeah. the design's barely changed in which i reckon they could be waiting for the 10year anniv of the iphone to do it next year. though the changes i fancy on this 7plus is the dual camera system and that taptic feedback technology from the new macbook. kinda disappointed that i'm still waiting for them to release a new macbook pro but it's pretty obvious with the rumors that this is going to be just a phone and watch event.

                                  what's wrong with itunes @Cole ? i find it a breeze to use..

                                    It drives me crazy every time I need to transfer something to the iPods (old iPhones) of the kids and is generaly the most unintuitiv thing ever created, if you are an old Windwos-Explorer-Whore like me.  😉
