I'm upgrading from a 5s to a 6s when my contract is up in November and I'm going to sell my 5s, which is in near mint condition still (case + screen protector). Going to suck letting my favorite phone I've ever had go, but I'll have no use for it I don't even want to upgrade, but I can't deal with this 16gb life anymore breh.

man I got 32GB, and I am CONSTANTLY running out of space. I'm getting 64 GB tomorrow.

I have a cracked screen on my iPad Air (gen 1) and I'm not going to do the diy repair their is a local shop here I was wondering if anyone has ever used a local repair shop of so how much did it cost?

I used a local repair shop I found on craigslist to fix the screen on my last 5S that I completely shattered. it cost me $100, and the speaker stopped working so well after that. but with a fixed screen, I took it back to apple and they gave me a new one on the spot :blessedrose:

Brehs, put me up on the must have apps for iPhone. I've been on Android since 08....

Just received this case. It seems to be good quality though there's not nearly as much wood as I would have expected for $30. I'm going to rock it until my other cases get in, but I'm almost 100% sure I'll eventually be rocking one of the two Verus cases I bought as a backup as a full time case.

How much of the case is wood?

 

[beenz]

if I gotta 5s , should I upgrade or just wait brehs?

I just came from a 5S. I'd definitely upgrade. the 6S is MUCH faster, and the screen size is a as well

I don't know how you guys aren't going with wallet cases more often.

Might be because I lose my wallet so often that I feel it is necessary in my case.

Just the back and it's attached to the body rather than being solid wood. It's almost like a veneer.

I have too much stuff in my wallet. I use a thin checkbook style wallet that's a little longer than my phone though.

I lose my phone (in the house) more than my wallet though.

It will be tough for me if I stick with the iPhone because my main bank isn't set up with Apple pay

Damn. You should be able to use any card with Apple Pay though, right?

Apparently not and the PayPal business card won't work either (obviously).

My 2 most used cars aren't compatible

That's crazy and could be a deal breaker. I'm bout to use this Apple Pay heavy.

Nah, it's still quite a few banks that don't support it. Discover didn't get accepted till a week ago and that's the 3rd largest credit card issuer in the country.

Not only that, it's still some stores that don't accept it either. Some stores may have an NFC terminal but won't have it turned on.

Yeah I was thinking it was issuer based (if that's the right term for Discover/Visa/Amex/MasterCard) rather than Bank based ( like Wells Fargo or BoA).

I had to take advantage of the Discover Apple Pay deal caue that double cash back is too much to pass up. Hopefully more stores get on the wagon before Christmas comes up.

I'm trying to adjust to this 6s plus and the size is putting me off. For what I paid for this I'm already finding myself making far too many sacrifices and being inconvenienced too much. This is a big heavy awkward device. I guess I didn't realize how much I appreciated the size of my previous iPhone till I got a larger one.

I don't know if I'm even gonna make it a day with this.
