just went to tmobile store, no beuno on pre order. backordered

played with the note 3.. gigantic

but id probably get used to it after awhile.

Battery life will prob be close to the same, the 6+ bigger screen will kill the battery.

They said the 6 plus battery lasts much longer than the 6. 5s and 6 battery probably the same.

i can understand why people are saying once u get used to it u wont want a smaller screen. i just dont want a phone that cant fit in my pocket to begin with

and knowing iphones, that battery is gonna get even worse with a quickness.

have fun trying to achieve those numbers on the board

i still have the slight feeling I might want to try to grab that instead of the 6 when i pickup on friday but i think the screen jump from the 5 alone will be plenty

Speck doesn't have the PixelSkin HD Case for the 6 yet I hope

Might go with the apple case for now.

Wondering if I should go with leather or silicone.

Just received Spigen Thin Fit A and Air Skin in for 4.7 inch from Amazon. 

Air Skin is super thin. Like 2 pieces of paper thin. But if you like something that is not going to add bulk to the iphone form factor, it defintely fits the bill.

Thin Fit A looks nice, but I probably won't use it.

I know these were in production way before the reveal so I hope they are on point with the fit.

And plus ios 8

This is great and all but I think the real disappointment for me is how much competitors are killing all that above.

The Note 4 is a beast. But let's say you are old and you aren't going to use 90% of the extra features you get in a Note 4 and Android over iPhone and iOs.

Fundamentally, for core things that matter, the Note 4 is still a far better product:

-Battery life and core design. The Note 4 battery is ridiculous at 330 MAH and replaceable! I can't put into words how valuable it is to have a replaceable battery. For $40, I get a fresh new battery that I can carry with me and never have to worry about dying. Priceless for a guy who travels a lot and does the outdoors a lot. Also, after a year, battery juice and retention dies, with Samsungs, it's an easy swap for a brand new battery.

-Expandable memory. Memory these days is cheap. Apple rapes you to force you to buy memory configurations where with Samsung allows you to customize how much memory you need at the most advantageous price points as a consumer.

-Multitasking. The Note 4 has 3x the RAM apple does. You can have multiple windows open and functioning at the same time. I don't think this is excessive at all. Something as simple as having google maps open with a separate text window open to give directions without having to flip between apps. I do stuff like that frequently.

There will always be a debate as to what people like more, iOS or android, so it's pointless to go into that. But when it comes to core fundamental value, like battery life, memory, and multitasking, why can't Apple do the above?

The irony of it all is that I'm using my upgrade to get a 6+. Why? So I can resell it at a higher margin to allow me to buy a Note 4.

Hmm I have a 4S so I don't think I'll get anything

ATT will give you 200 for your phone. 

I guess I'll be getting the phone quicker than I thought with this deal. Thanks. Might try to go in this weekend and see what's up I just will try Sunday while football is on.

The adaptive brightness is so dope. Got outside with sun and the brightness adjusts to the highest then go back inside and it gets darker

 

[a-friend]

Thats a good point man repped. 

But pardon me if i am wrong.  But on ATT next if you upgrade every year you have to turn your old phone in correct?  So you don't actually get to keep the phone.

You're basically leasing the phone for 18 months and paying off 2/3 of it as well

AT&T Next is a HORRIBLE idea for the consumer, but it GREATLY benefits the carrier.

@Jking0821This is only the case IF you don't make all 20 or 24 payments, if you make only 12/18 and then upgrade you turn the old phone in, if you make ALL 20/24 payments you can keep the phone and then upgrade again with a brand new payment plan.
