IF you get an iPhone you should get an iPhone 6s as it is decent and has a headphone port.

Yeah it is hard to say if you should wait for the 7s or wait an additional year for the 8. The 8 is RUMORED to have some crazy good features, but who knows with Apple.

 

I have a iPhone 5 that I want to upgrade to another iPhone but just keep being a little disappointed.

Guys hes not asking what phone he should buy, but what iphone he should buy. As previously said i would get the 6s as it offers the same functionality as the 7 but it offers a headphone jack and its cheaper. If you really dont want to buy an older phone i suggest you wait for the eight. The S versions of the phone dont reallly offer much difference and if you have agree on a 2 year plan you get stuck in always buying the s version and being late on all thats new and exciting.

If you like iPhones more than androids, why would you switch in the first place? Personally I hate apple products, spec wise. Also I've used OneDrive and Google Drive for years now. I'd wait for the new iPhone rather than buy an old one.

My stuff:

Spoiler

CPU :  Intel i5 8400 | GPU : MSI GTX 970 Gaming 4GB

 

RAM : 32GB Corsair Vengeance DDR4 @ 3600MHz

Headset : Beyerdynamics DT990 Pro 250Ω w/ AT2020USB+

 

Monitor : Acer XF240H @  144Hz

If you must, the 4S, 5S or 6S. The rest are kind of garbage. Especially the iPhone 7.

Gonna back this up at all? The S versions are the least innovative and are just the tock in a tick-tock process.

Cause its good to try new things out? I personally don't want to switch back to android because its too different and I invested in apple chargers and apple products that I know work well together. There's a specific reason people buy iPhones and it's not because of the specs. The apple ecosystem is unrivaled.

So? They are already released and have the problems found in the non S version fixed. They are also slightly higher speced as well and especially with the iPhone 6, are more robust than the standard model due to improvements (eg. no more #bendgate)

The bendgate is a stupid argument if you don't roll with a case you're not that smart anyway. It was wayy blown out of proportion. The slightly higher spec is negligible because you dont notice a real world difference

The iPhone 6 bent easily, and in most cases the touch IC partially popped off the motherboard due to lack of underfill (which all previous models had), rendering the touchscreen useless. and the same thing happened if you dropped it as well and got the screen replaced-the iPhone 6 still ended up with a dead touhcscreen. And if it was blown way out of proportion? Then why did so many people have the same issues? And why did Apple reinforce the areas of the iPhone 6S where the iPhone 6 bent the most?

Also, nice adhominem.

Best I could find was 300 bent iPhones on a scale of 220 million iPhone 6's shipped. If you show me a significantly increased number then ill retract my statement. I admit there is indeed a structural issue in the iPhone 6. It was a huge media scandal and they have to make up for it somehow. To avoid sales numbers being bad on the next iPhone they reinforced it. They didn't make it thicker and there were still reports of the iPhone 6s bending.

iPhones haven't changed drastically since the original one came out. So there's not really anything new. :P

Apple started manufacturing of the iPhone 6S well before the problem became widely known of (aka, when Apple finally listened to people and repair shops), with the area where it bent the easiest re-inforced because they knew well in advance that it would be an issue. And all iPhone 6 have the same flaw-a lack of undefill under the touch IC meaning that bending or dropping an iPhone is is almost guaranteed to render the touchscreen useless.

Edit: Every single version of the iPhone has had at least 1 serious flaw-do I really have to dig up every single one of them for you?

Thought I asked you to provide me a significant number? As I said, the whole bend gate was a problem but it was blown out of proportions. As I've stated plenty of times. The iPhone was flawed but the whole thing was blown out of proportions. So stop feeding me the bullshit of what's the problem and show me how many people it affected. Also, dont feed me bs of rendering it useless I've seen many iPhone six's dropped without any shit just a cracked screen.
