So I traded-in my iPhone 6 Plus for a 6S Plus ... [View all]

big whoop, right? I would have kept the 6 Plus but it started acting crazy again ... as if it had a mind of it's own. Whether it was the reported "touch disease" or other malady caused by faulty engineering, who knows? I got some trade-in value for it too.

I have learned the 6S Plus is a tad thicker and heavier than the 6 Plus it replaced, and that speaks volumes (to me) that Apple realized the 6 Plus might have been too fragile and thin a design. This has been blamed somewhat on the touch disease I speak of.

I'm sharing this because 6 Plus users, and 6 users, may want to consider upgrading if 6S and 6S Plus prices continue to decrease. This is the last model with the standard headphone jack. It's a heck of a phone and one I think I can live with for a few years until Apple introduces the "next best thing."

Yeah, I would have gotten the 7 but it's sold out. I need a new phone now.
