the 7 doesn't seem like a big enough update for me to warrant purchasing another phone. I already got the 6s, so I'm good for the time being.
Where's the info on the 7? I still have the 6 waiting on the next real release

the 7 is supposed to be an incremental increase on the 6s and the 6. it's the same design and probably comes with a better camera and processor as usual. but no new features really. I mean you would get force touch cuz you have a 6, but it has nothing for me really.

the 8 comes out in 2017 which supposedly supports wireless charging, and it will have a major design change which is rumored to having the phone going back to an all glass front and back.

yeah although my 6 Plus' battery has held on well but my iPad from the same time has a very noticeable battery life

its expected now a days with these devices

best bet is a battery case or try your hand at replacing the battery
Breh your iPad doesn't search for a cell phone tower all day like the iPhone does...that's one thing that drains the battery. If your phone had wi fi all the time then it would last longer too

:ohhh: I thought the S joints were normally the incremental improvements and why would they drop the 7 and 8 only be a year between each other.

they're not going with an S version after the 7 drops.

and to be honest, the S versions usually have the same look as the numbered version but with better features or a significant feature upgrade. for instance, the 4S introduced siri. the 5S introduced the touch ID. the 6S introduced force touch and improved wifi/LTE.

This is why Apple is retarded. Wireless charging should be in the 7, not the 8.

Wireless charging? They make a killing selling those charging cables that barely last 6 months, they'll probably come up with some fragile device that comes with the new iphone in which will break easily and force you into buying a new one.

yeah but i want real wireless charging, like an area. put my phone anywhere on my desk or in my car and it'll charge, no mat, no pad. Right now w/a cable at least it'll charge while you use the phone. Use a wireless pad, pick it up and it stops charging. Solution in search of a problem.
