Iphone 6 Plus - Worth it?

[VerticalDiscussions]

I think its too old for complicated functions that involve multimedia processes. Its still a great phone for standby times, phonecalls, social accounts and messaging. Also the occasional youtube video for sure.

 

Try to check if the phone wasnt resealed, by perhaps scanning its inside with an X-Ray machine (if you have a friend with a 500,000$ machine around him or anyone that knows a guy that could). Aside from packaging scuffing and device tampering (any marks of wear, teardown on the display and body) and you probably wont have any issues.

I'm pretty sure they can't do that, and even if they could it's both bad for their brand image and would cost them many times what they'd stand to make.

Businesses are petty, they can and will do whatever they want with their product and seeing that iOS is not open source they can sue you for tampering with their software without their consent.

Except they can't. Because it's not illegal.

No it's not. It falls under the fair use part of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

Jailbreaking is illegal much like building a hackintosh is... what dream world are you living in ? Anything you do that breaks the ToS of any company can land you in jail because it's illegal.

It's not. It's protected under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

I live in a world where I can look up rights and understand rulings.

Interestingly enough, still legal. They made changes to the Act in 2015.

There also hasn't been a single US court case regarding Jailbreaking a device, so it's pretty clear Apple doesn't care. They already have your money. Why would they?

I only put music on my phone and use it in the car with bluetooth.

Take pics aswell but not often.

How much music do you have? I have ~1200 songs or so on my iPhone and it takes up a little over 10GB of storage. I opted for the 128GB iPhone 6s (bought new) because I wanted to have no storage issues down the line. 64GB would have been fine too, but the price difference between the two was negligible at the time.

 

I would personally highly advise against the 16GB version. Seriously, you might not think you'll need the space now, but in 6 months or a year, you might be maxing out the storage.
