for those that dont use a screen protector, how many scratches do you get on your phone screen after a year or so?

Same as everyone else pretty much, only fine micro scratches. The fact that they don't make a protector that goes over the edges of the screens/I don't like how they feel always leaves me rocking without. I do have a couple deep scratches but I'm pretty sure I goofed and had something abrasive in my pocket at some point (this was on my 6, just got the 7+ and no problems yet)

If y'all want something minimal and cheap, this is a great case, http://www.ebay.com/itm/12217963745...49&var=422421021381&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

i'll eventually do a dbrand skin soon to try and trick myself into thinking it's a different phone 

 

 

[1stwitit]

Hoping my 6 will hold me until the next drop.

Yeah I'm gonn hold out for as long as i can. Can't be spending money on things I don't need.

 

[smookes]

Dam...... 85% of ya said to stay with the 6s instead of upgrading to the 7. I guess it's really not worth it. Thanks for all the advise.

 

[slighted]

Don't worry -- you're good.

 

[dream5hift]

I'm keeping my 6 until the next drop. Didn't want to get the 7 without JB.

It was discussed earlier in the thread but I'll give an update. My iPhone 6 plus has been suffering from "Touch Disease" where the touchscreen stops working at random times and makes the phone unusable. A bunch of people are suffering from this (there are already 4 class action suits filed against Apple for it) with both the 6 plus and the 6. It's believed to be caused by the type of aluminum and how the 6 and 6 plus is easily bendable. Last Friday Apple put out a kind of crappy repair program for it where you still have to pay 149 but you get a replacement iphone 6 plus instead of having to pay 329 for it. I took mine in to the apple store last night and was in and out. If you are having problems with your 6 plus and want it fixed/replaced without the full price cost this is the route. Replacement devices carry a 90 day warranty.

Was gonna hold out with my 6 until the 8 came out, but now my 6 wont turn on . Guess it made my decision for me

iPhone 7 isn't waterproof, it's water resistant, there's a difference

Man mines been tripping too. I matured to the point that I don't need the latest and greatest iPhone, but I hope I don't have to spend Black Friday trying to get an iPhone replaced. Going to get some canned air for the charger port, get a fresh charger, and just start from scratch in terms of iCloud backups. This 128GB 6 Plus is still fine for what I need it for. Supposed to get a Blackberry Classic again this weekend.

Having real bad issues with my stock Clock app.

My alarms are just turning off. Like they wont' stay on.

Im on 9.3.3 Jailbreak. I honestly am thinking about upgrading because i can't get my alarms to go off. I have 3rd party apps but you have to keep them open all night its annoying. I looked online and some people are reporting the same issues with 9.3.3 but i have found no answer (obvious answer is to upgrade)

 

[halftime]

Still rocking this 5S

About to wait for the 8 at this point unless my girl comes through for xmas...

 

[curtis50cent]

T-Mobile doing the trade in 6s for iPhone 7 deal again

I wonder if there is a limit to how many you can trade bc someone in my family already did a trade in once.

I copped the Ringke Air case for when I go to the gym. I ordered the ink black and I probably should've went with the smoke black option instead. Overall for $8 it will do.

I have a Zagg shield on the back so I don't get any scratches but going raw at the gym is spooky
