Re: Upgrade from iPhone 5 to iPhone6?
Hi! What about the 6 plus. Is it faster than the 6 or is it just that is has the bigger screen.

RE: Upgrade from iPhone 5 to iPhone6?
Hi Lisette, I am not searching for protective screen covers; I am after plastic templates that have little cut out boxes, that ly directly over the screen function keys/buttons. My provlem is that I have short pudgy finger tips, which tend to touch 2 of the screen buttons instead of only 1 of those buttuns. Those are the type of templates I desire for an IPhone 6. Any information about, providers price would be appreciated.

Hi there, For the person wanting the screen protector with dots for the iPhones, they are made by speeddots.com and are sold by them and lots of other vendors. They have two models: a standard and an advanced. The www.speeddots.com website is the one I've always used, and explains everything very clearly. Good luck.

Given that we're about halfway there already, though, why not pick the newer one if you'll have it for two years? It's not like upgrading from a 4 or 4S, where you're stuck on iOS7 and modern apps cause your device to run really slowly. The 5 is a capable device, though time will tell what iOS9 does to it, and if you're replacing it but it still works, I'd wait. Besides, what if the next generation finally drops the 16GB model, and instead starts at 32GB for the same price? I explained this much better in the article I wrote for AppleVis, so I'll just put that link below. http://www.applevis.com/blog/apple-iphone-opinion/why-im-keeping-my-iphone-5-one-more-year On Mar 21, 2015, at 3:38 PM, Phil Halton philh...@gmail.com wrote: New Phone?

iPhone 6 vs 6 Plus (was: Upgrade from iPhone 5 to iPhone6?)
The internals are identical--processor, NFC, wifi, LTE, bluetooth, Touch ID, all that. The main differences are the battery, screen size, and the inclusion of image stabilization in the 6 Plus. The 6 has that, but it's all software; the Plus has hardware to do the stabilizing, which people say makes it better for photos.

Hi Jeff, Do you have any plastic templates to put on your IPhone 6 screen? The reason I am asking is I have large finger tips, on an IPhone 5 I was constantly touching 2 screen buttons.

Re: Upgrade from iPhone 5 to iPhone6?
Oh, my, gosh! Do it! Again, I said, do it do it do it! I upgraded my 5S, and I tell ya, though I still have it as a non-activated backup, I would never! look back under normal circumstances. I think the screen with the little vision I have is way better, the internal speakel is most definitely better in my opinion, and finally I find that things run a bit more snappy, and are a bit more responsive over all. Yes, the physical size of the 6 and 6 Plus are significantly bigger than the 5 and 5S, I'll give you that, as well for that mind, as the 5C. Some people hate this, and say it's way way way way! too big for them. Personally, maybe it's just me, but I found the extra size to be very welcomed. I actually found it to spacially help me tremendously. This however will vary from person to person. I'd suggest going in and looking at one. If your contract is up, and you won't pay anything anyway, then you really honestly might as well do it. Just my two cents.

Re: Upgrade from iPhone 5 to iPhone6?
Also, one other thing I thought of: I'm not sure if this is a 5X vs. a 6X thing or not, but I'm finding that Safari works amazingly well on the 6 Plus I have. On my 5S, don't get me wrong, it worked fairly decently, but there were some issues here and there. Finding things on a web site with the item chooser, for example, didn't always seem to correctly work. Now, I only know maybe of one web site that the chooser pukes and chokes on, and the only reason is because the web site has literally over 12 thousand links on the one page itself, so you can probably imagine. That's quite extreme though. And before anyone asks what the hell web site this is that would be so big, I'm sorry, but unfortunately, I'm not authorized to disclose that information, so, you're just gonna have to therefore take my word on this. the other thing I absolutely love about my 6 Plus is, I went from a 32GB 5S to the 6 Plus 128GB. Being I'm a music lover at heart, a professional musician, and a sound engineer all 3, having that extra capassity is more worth it than you ever could know!

Hi Phil, I just upgraded from the 5s to the 6. Wasn't planning on doing it but I was having trouble with my old carrier and wanted to switch. The PRO side of the upgrade is: the 6 is faster, the 6's radios seem faster, and I like the bigger screen and thinner design. The biggest speed difference I've noticed is that if podcasts are downloading I now can play internet-connected games without noticing any lag. Also the phone reboots faster if you need to shut it down. I haven't really noticed any cons. Hope this helps!

Re: Upgrade from iPhone 5 to iPhone6?
I know it happens every year. Given that we're about halfway there already, though, why not pick the newer one if you'll have it for two years? It's not like upgrading from a 4 or 4S, where you're stuck on iOS7 and modern apps cause your device to run really slowly. The 5 is a capable device, though time will tell what iOS9 does to it, and if you're replacing it but it still works, I'd wait. Besides, what if the next generation finally drops the 16GB model, and instead starts at 32GB for the same price? I explained this much better in the article I wrote for AppleVis, so I'll just put that link below. http://www.applevis.com/blog/apple-iphone-opinion/why-im-keeping-my-iphone-5-one-more-year On Mar 21, 2015, at 3:38 PM, Phil Halton philh...@gmail.com wrote: New Phone?

Re: Upgrade from iPhone 5 to iPhone6?
Hi there, For the person wanting the screen protector with dots for the iPhones, they are made by speeddots.com and are sold by them and lots of other vendors. They have two models: a standard and an advanced. The www.speeddots.com website is the one I've always used, and explains everything very clearly. Good luck.
