Which iPhone are you getting - 6 or 6 Plus?

So, who has their new iphone 6? How is it? I want updates.

FedEx just dropped off my phone and I am restoring now. I have the 6 and it is big. I'm glad I didn't go with the 6 plus.

Here's a good spec comparison between the two iPhones and some other newer phones

Same here with the Samsung flip phone. It's a pain to text but I use that to my advantage cause I don't like texting anyway. ("oh, sorry I don't do much texting, I got this old dumb phone and I've been meaning to get rid of it one of these days...)

Glad you admitted that iCloud didn't get hacked.

Um... the iCloud did get hacked...

How do people like you exist? The Icloud did not get hacked as others said, people's accounts were hacked into. There is a huge difference. Someone can hack into your bank account, it doesn't mean the bank got hacked, it just means you suck at choosing a password.

Apple admitted patching a security gap that allowed hackers to access iCloud accounts. It doesn't really matter if it was a password hack or some more exotic exploit -- Apple allowing repeated brute force login attacks against iCloud accounts IS a security problem, even if it only impacts that user.

Users are dumb. They pick easy passwords like the word "password". It's up to the admin of whatever service/site/etc they use to enforce password requirements and they sure as hell shouldn't be allowing brute force attacks -- that's incredibly easy to spot and defend against. Apple screwed up. They're no infallible, no matter what Apple Fanboys think.

After 12 hrs the IPhone 6 is outselling the launch of the 5S by around triple. Some of it may be better supply obviously, but it's also on back order. The 6S is outselling the 5C launch by around 30% which is due to constraints. And when I say outselling I mean actual sales to customers not channel inventory. So all together a pretty impressive start even without China.

This is a little off topic, but it involves Apple so here we go. Why/how does a store like Apple have a self checkout? I admit, it's been a long time since I've been in an electronics store where they sell expensive things so maybe it's common now, but it took me by surprise they have a self checkout & it took this guy 7 times until he was caught walking out with expensive Apple gear.

"Police say Chapman made it appear he was using the store's self-checkout but left without paying.

He allegedly stole from the store seven times and sold the items for cash."

A lot of stores have self-checkout. Shoplifters steal from stores of all types. Nothing to see here.

The shoplifter Chapman is Rex Chapman, a former NBA player (12 years), and former NBA executive.

Shoplifter Rex Chapman certainly made more money as a pro than most pro runners will ever make. The future for ill-prepared professional athletes is not as rosy as fans believe.

I walked into a T-Mobile store today and they had plenty of iPhone 6s available. In the I went with the LG G3, with a screen the size of the 6+ in a device the size of the iPhone 6. And packed with other nice features.

I'm loving it so far.

I thought there was "nothing to see here".

Learn to Think...

There is nothing to see here. Shoplifting happens all the time. Apple stores are not immune shoplifting. No stores are immune.

Than a former pro athlete is broke an desperate is a different matter.

Learn to write. Then maybe we can understand.

You want us to understand, yet your grasp of the English language is severely lacking.

P.S. I'm a girl.

6S's are 100% sold out in all stores. They weren't able to make enough.

You bought the LG G3 lol....you just don't understand what makes a phone great. All the others are left in the dust because they don't either. Apple is about to demolish Samsung (and everyone else even more than they already do) because they know what's important and it's not bloatware.

ApplePay will change the way things are paid. No droid phone will ever succeed in that.

Thanks for making my point.

A girl. Not a woman.
