I was going to do that until I realized I'm paying the full price of the phone over 2 years anyways. I'd end up having to pay 700ish or more per iphone and if my family were to get that, it would be almost 3000 every 2 years. (ridiculous imo for phones)

 

Well I pay £55 a month for 24 months, 128gb iPhone 6, 20gb 4G data, unlimited calls and text, spotify premium

 

iPhone 6 128gb cost was £699 at lauch

sim only 20gb 4g contract, £25 per month =  £600

 

Total over 24 months = £1299

 

Contract cost £58 x 24 = £1392 (cost minus spotify =  £1152)

 

So it was a good deal for me to get it

dont think so, just iOS for now, maybe in the future

Just make a phone with physical keys and I'll go Bruce Wayne on it.

I miss manual typing on my "brick" phone.

But hey, look at it this way, variety is good right? If you don't like the stock, now you have another option to try.

BlackBerry Priv?

Yea I pay 100 a month for 4 lines so 2400 over 2 years. 4 iPhones subsidized don't save me any money, they actually just split the cost so it'd be the full 3000ish and I'd rather save 2000 and get 4 One Plus One's or something.

In my opinion it is.

 

I love the WordFlow keyboard. it's so freaking awesome and i get to use it all day everyday on my phone (and if i had a windows tablet i would as well).

 

EDIT: Do you mind trying to enable sounds when you type and tell me if it sounds like windows version does?

I agree it is "fairly" bad. Not great but not bad. However, you can still download SwiftKeys for IOS which I think is a great help.
