My next phone even so I don't like big screens.

A8

The Apple iPhone 6 is powered by a second-generation chipset, the Apple A8. It offers 25% more CPU power and 50% extra GPU oomph. The chipset is built on a power-efficient 20nm process, which also makes it 13% smaller physically than its A7 predecessor.

My A7 is already fudgy fast.

What do you think about the size, lol? I remember you saying 4" was perfect and Galaxy S4 was too large

Too big... 4.7" is already huge... I don't want to see the 5.5"... bad choice.

[ethomaz]

Can they at least realease a 4.2" model?

Time to wait for the next iPod Touch.

I understand why people keep buying iPhones, but still.

From a tech perspective that's lacking.

What is lacking? There are more than others... the TouchId for example is the next big feature in cellphone... it is just so so so useful that I can't go back to others phones anymore.

PS. My girlfriend will send his Xperia Z1 to Sony because the brightness stopped to work... these things that just Android do for you

I wonder where I find it. I can listen to it through the store but it would be better if I had it in my library.

meh, i just can't justify upgrading every 2 years anymore.   just a waste of money.

[BasilZero]

My family is planning to upgrade next year so guess I'll wait for that. Currently have the Vanilla iPhone 5 from 2012 - got it during launch then.

My parents want the Apple Watch though - "Watch Edition" lol.

Planning to get a iPad as well next year.

Going to spend my dough on FF games on iOS so I can play them when I travel in the future l0l.

It is leagues behind my LG G3 except for the TouchID.  G3 has a quad HD screen with 538 pixels per inch. 4k screenshots and 4k video, laser autofocus which is amazing.  Power and volume buttons on the back which is way easier to use as my index finger is naturally on them all the time.  And the fact that apple is just now getting to 1920x1080 is freaking pathetic. 

But I know how people can like iPhones since they are very easy to use and are a good quality phone.  But still behind other phones. :-p

Ug I hate the "index" button on the back of those phones. The buttons on the side feel so much nicer to me.
