APPLE THREAD | Apple Event Sept. 12th 10 a.m. PDT/1 p.m. EDT | iPhone 15

Hard to say. It will be diff depending how and what you use your phone for

True I don’t record that many videos but I got about 10-15 gb worth of music

 

[Kaleo15]

What you using until then? I feel the same as you, but also feel the want to upgrade this 6 lol. Considering the 7/8 Plus models. But then I think why not just spend a couple hundred more bucks for the X haha.

My girl got me the 8+ so I’m using this, otherwise I’d still be using the 6s+

The 8+ is great! Camera and speakers blow the 6+ out the water. It’s faster, water “resistant”, wireless charger, bigger memory, faster processor... ect.

This will do for now!

EDIT: just realized you said just the regular 6? Nah bro go for the X then!!!! Basically same size phone with a bigger screen than the Plus.

Everything is better and an upgrade! Get the X.

 

[Kaleo15]

You have to pinch to zoom in or out

Double tap the screen and it will utilize all the screen. But it’ll be cropped! The bezel where the speaker is annoying to see while watching movies/highlights.

So is the 64gb enough ?

It’s enough for me. I currently have the 6+ and i have only used 42 of the 64GBs, but it really comes down to what you use it for. Mine mainly has music and pictures.

So is the 64gb enough ?

As others have mentioned, it depends entirely upon what you keep stored on your phone. If you take lots of pics and aren't storing them to iCloud, I'd recommend something like Google Photos. That way after they sync via the cloud, you can delete them off of your phone.

Ok so I have 4500 pix on my old iphone.
Did the icloud backup and I just have 2180 pix on my icloud and new iphone!! wtf!
I don't get it.... HALP

Getting the X. Over these big phones now. Ready to retire my 6S+. Been a good run.

 

[grimeyy]

Super tempted to get the X but I'm gonna hold off

A wild guess would be that you've exceeded the amount of storage you have via iCloud. Your options are either purchasing more storage, connecting your phone via USB to laptop and exporting to your hard drive or downloading an alt storage app.

If you use 4K recording, that bites a lot for memory! If you gonna go big on the phone, invest in the bigger memory too.

256 or bust! They should've just done 64, 128 than a premium limited 512gb.

I won't say i`m over but it feels good to be using a different design after having the 6+,6s+,7+, and 8 lol same damn body for 4 yrs

I hardly ever record video, but it does eat a lot of memory.

Anyone a previous plus owner that switched the the X? How does it feel in hand? Coming from a large phone like the plus is it a noticeable difference?

 

[brusie j]

I mean I’m coming from the regular 6 got it on release day back in 2014 so this is great lol and as far as size I mean it’s huge even tho the phone itself isn’t that big compared to the 6. Honestly this is something you would have to go and see and feel for yourself because I can’t explain it

 

[UnicornHunter]

I won't say i`m over but it feels good to be using a different design after having the 6+,6s+,7+, and 8 lol same damn body for 4 yrs

But you chose those same design 4 times lol after the second one I was done with the lack of innovation

 

[Kobekobe]

Returning my X..

Can't get used to the smaller screen (coming from a 7+)

Yes I know the screen is technically bigger on the X, but it's just longer and too narrow.

Design isnt the only place for innovation.

 

[grimeyy]

Resisting the urge to watch any videos on the X. Gotta fight temptation

 

[God]

Is it just me or is the screen on the iPhone X not as bright as previous models

It's not as bright. Some of the early reviewers pointed this out.

 

[alchemist iq]

The iPhone X is an OLED display, other iPhones use a lcd/led display. Maybe the reason why it’s not as bright.

 

[brusie j]

One minute of 4K at 60 FPS is about 400 mb.....hmmmm I have a 500GB MacBook Pro.

Get an TB external hard drive for like $50.

The slick look alone is worth it! Let along going back to those bezels man . I’m already getting use to narrow screen.

Yeah, it’s smaller/easier to hold for sure.

 

[Kobekobe]

In my opinion, harder to hold. Feel like I'm gonna drop it, it's tiny.

Also.. Keyboard is smaller, content on the screen is smaller.

I'll wait for the X plus.
