Your paying a price to with Apple.

There are ton of great phones (android) that have this power, size and then some for less on contract. Can't image the price off-contract

I believe the 16GB is only $199 with a 2 year contract. Hasn't that always been the price at the release of their new phones?

Me too! I am constantly having to delete and it's so annoying. Before DD, I had plenty of space. Now I currently have 1800 pics and video and I've probably deleted about 1000 (after transferring them to my laptop and an online storage site of course).

The 6 is $199 for 16gb, $299 for 64gb, $399 for 128gb.

The 6+ is $299 for 16gb, $399 for 64gb, $499 for 128gb

I did the same! I put th;em on my laptop, then had my husband put on our external harddrive, then put in dropbox so I can look at work or on the app on my phone.

my husband makes fun of me saying that we will be able to go back and say "Here is the outfit you wore on September 6 2014" to our son. But whenever I don't send him a pic in the morning he says "where's my pic???"

I think when I switch (which won't be till next year unfortunately) I'll get the smaller iphone but with 32gigs.

I've never had an iphone, but I don't understand why people are ok with paying more for a phone with more storage, when you can buy a samsung galaxy phone for less and add whatever storage space you need with a mini sd card.

Seems like such a ploy by Apple to buy the more expensive phones.

This is an easy one for me to answer.

DH has had android phones since the first one came out, including the Galaxy, and I've hated every single one. I am pretty tech savvy and every single time I try to use one of his phones, I am ready to throw it out the window. The iphone, to me, is much more user friendly. I will happily pay more for an iphone with more storage than the cheapest, greatest android that has extra storage capabilities.

Same here. DH loves his Galaxy but I cant stand navigating through it along with all the glitches. I have always been an iPhone girl. I love the simplicity of it.

I tried iPhone and I returned it in a week.
I hated it.
Other than the camera- which I admit is much better on the iPhone- the Galaxy blows the iphone away.
And I work in technology.
For work and business, I have much better result with my Galaxy.

Agreed. I have an ipad, so I know how the interface of Apple products works, and for a phone, I wouldn't like it at all.

I've never had glitches and I find it very user friendly.

I agree. I don't think thats really a bad price for the phone. Plus i have a mac and iPad and they are all linked together. I really don't want to learn a new system!

Here's my take on it.

I love the connecting apps that the iPhone offers. I love that they act seamlessly with iTunes, all of the music, etc. & an iMac.

BUT I still think the Samsung S5 is better.

It offers wireless charging as an option so no more damaging that stupid input ports.

It has a removable battery.

It has an external memory card slot.

For anyone interested, here are the specs:
Screen Display:
SGS5 screen 1080 x 1920 pixels, 5.1 inches (~432 ppi pixel density)
iPhone 6 Plus screen 1080 x 1920 pixels, 5.5 inches (~401 ppi pixel density)
Phone 6 screen 750 x 1334 pixels, 4.7 inches (~326 ppi pixel density)

Body:
SGS5 – is 142 x 72.5 x 8.1 mm (5.59 x 2.85 x 0.32 in)
iPhone 6 Plus is 158.1 x 77.8 x 7.1 mm (6.22 x 3.06 x 0.28 in)
iPhone 6 is 138.1 x 67 x 6.9 mm (5.44 x 2.64 x 0.27 in)

Weight:
SGS5 – 145 g (5.11 oz)
iPhone 6 Plus 172 g (6.07 oz)
iPhone 6 129 g (4.55 oz)

I got the 32GB 5S two weeks ago for $70 after rebate. That was with my upgrade.

That Led To The Wrong Tendencies

Re: iPhone 6 to be announced today!

One thing that Apple continues to get right is the "experience" as they call it. I went to Best Buy last night to look at all the other phones like the Galaxy S5 and HTC M8 to see if there was something potentially better.

Every single phone I tried had some element of "scroll lag" on it. When I scroll down pages on my iPhone, it is so smooth I have gotten used to it. I feel like these Android phones lag for fractions of a second when scrolling quickly. This would drive me nuts over time.

So it looks like 6+ 128GB for me.
