yes, I realize the size matters, also the condition. Mine is a 16 G, and
has been in an otterbox case before I even left the store, so, I'm sure it's

Hi,

No, I didn't add a line or enter a new contract.  Like I said though, you
can't use that gift card toward your phone, and what you get for your phone
will depend on what it is and how many GB.  Mine was a 5 with 32 GB and was
in perfect condition.

Good luck.

Lois, you bought your phone using the Next option, and Best Buy gave you the
gift card for trading in your iPhone, did yougo into a new contract, or add
a line, or anything?  I'm trying to figure out how you did this, since I
want to try the same thing!

OK, so I guess that just means you pay for the phone in one year with
additional payments instead of having a regular 2-year contract without
additional payments after which time the phone is also yours.
Do you then not pay $199, $299 or whatever the initial payment is at all?

With the next plan from ATT, you don't have to keep getting a new phone.
Once you have paid for your phone, your bill goes back to normal.  That is

phone.

 Lowis and Gale if you do the math you are paying a lot more for the
 phone than if you wait till your contract is up. Remember companies
 are in it for the money. If you are paying $30/month for 18 months,
 then you are paying $540 instead of either $199 or $299.

RE: the 16 or the 64G?

2014-09-28 Thread Vicky Collins
I got the 16GB 6 Plus.  I really meant to pre-order the 64GB, but 
it wasn't available when I was ordering on the first day, so I 
told myself the 16GB would be okay.  And, in my case, maybe it 
indeed will be.


I do have the KNFB Reader on my phone, and I don't store 
documents or books and things of that nature.  Also, with the 
16GB, those free apps such as Pages were indeed not installed, 
although I guess I could get them if I wanted.


When I checked my 16GB iPhone 4S running iOS 8.0.2, it showed the 
capacity as being 12.7GB, and the amount available as 10.0GB.  
Then, when I setup my iPhone 6 Plus 16GB by restoring from an 
encrypted iTunes backup after updating it to iOS 8.0.2, that 
phone showed the capacity as 11.8GB and the amount available as 
being 9.2GB.  There was a difference of 2.7GB used on my 4S, as 
opposed to 2.6 on my 6 Plus, but I'm guessing that the plus usage 
will increase up to 2.7 or more once I start using the apps on my 
phone.  But, even if an over the air iOS update takes between 5 
and 6GB to install, I might just be okay, or of course could 
always use iTunes where less space would be needed.

It all depends on your expected usage.  That is, if you never 
store music,
movies, audio books, tons of voices, or huge apps on your phone, 
16GB is
fine.  If, however, the extra 48GB is worth the $100 so you *can* 
fit all

the
stuff I just listed, that's fine too.  Basically, there's no 
functional
difference between the two, and the 64GB is $100 more.  Only you 
know if the
price increase and thereby storage increase is worth it.  
Personally, I have
a 16GB phone that currently has 4GB free, but no music or movies 
on it, and

I don't use audio books.

Re: the 16 or the 64G?

2014-09-28 Thread Lois Butterfield
With the next plan from ATT, you don't have to keep getting a new phone. 
Once you have paid for your phone, your bill goes back to normal.  That is 
what I was told anyway, and is the reason I went with that plan for this 
phone.


Take care,
Lois

Plans like ATT Next and whatever they are called from other carriers are
rip-offs and they are simply designed to lock people in to getting a new
phone every year and, of course, paying the premium price for it.

I think it used to be $199, $299, and $399 on contract in the states for the

3 storage options. That $50 a month plan with Sprint looks worth jumping
back in and getting the 64 gig iPhone 6. The big question is whether to do
easy pay, or to do their rental thing for iPhone for Life.

I think its an overall trend with smartphones. There are lots of
success Androy phone model, no longer give you te option of 32gb. They
either give you the 16gb or 64gb (discount Samsung).

As far as why it is the case, i'm not sure. I thought it will make
more sense for apple to have 32gb, 64gb and 128gb. But who knows what
behind the brain of it. Maybe, we Apple might want to retain the 32gb
soully for iPads.

Hi,

One thing that nobody has mentioned so far is that in the UK at least,
the price for the 64GB 6 is the same as the 32GB 5S when it was
released. I was a bit annoyed about having to go for the 64GB 6 at
first, but when I found out that its price was inline with the
previous 32GB price it didn't seem as bad. Personally I'd rather Apple
introduced a cheaper 32GB model instead of simply dropping that
capacity, but with the 6 pricing, your actually getting more storage
for your money than you were before.

OK, so I guess that just means you pay for the phone in one year with
additional payments instead of having a regular 2-year contract without
additional payments after which time the phone is also yours. 
Do you then not pay $199, $299 or whatever the initial payment is at all?

The way it worked for me who had 6 months before I was eligible for an 
upgrade was, my bill will have an additional approximately $30 for 18 
months.  After that, the phone is mine, and I am not under contract.  There 
was no initial payment or activation fee.


I won't like the bigger bill, but I can pay off early if I want to.  This 
doesn't make sense as there is no interest on the payments.

By the way, I got a Best Buy gift card of $225 that I couldn't use to pay 
for the phone, but I have no doubt I will find something to buy there, maybe 
an Apple TV.

first, but when I found out that its price was inline with the

introduced a cheaper 32GB model instead of simply dropping that

for your money than you were before.

I think the thing some of them don't tell you is that yes, you can upgrade 
when the next one comes out, but you end up having to then pay the rest of 
the current plan off, so depending on what you could then resell the one you 
had for would be the cost of it.

As for that Sprint iPhone for Life thing, not sure if you can just keep 
going with it for 20 or 25 or whatever the 64 gig is per month, or if you 
have to then pay the rest off or turn it in at that point.

Had I gone to the ATT store, I could have put the $225 toward my bill. 
With phones in such short supply, I chose to get it there and then.  I'm 
certainly not saying it is a great deal, but I don't think I'm paying a 
whole lot more than I would have otherwise, and waiting wasn't an option for 
me.


I'm very pleased with what I have.

OK, so I guess that just means you pay for the phone in one year with
additional payments instead of having a regular 2-year contract without
additional payments after which time the phone is also yours.
Do you then not pay $199, $299 or whatever the initial payment is at all?

There is no initial payment at all.

In the past when upgrading, I have had to pay an activation fee as well.  I 
had to pay the taxes on the phone, which I did with my trade-in gift card. 
That was it.

RE: the 16 or the 64G?

2014-09-28 Thread Vicky Collins
Since I didn't see a copyright notice at the bottom of the page, 
here is the ATT next FAQ information from their website; and, 
best I can tell, one does pay more with the Next plan than with a 
two-year contract, but then one has more freedom with the Next 
plan or with buying the phone outright.

Taken from:

www.att.com/shop/wireless/next.html









Expand All
What is ATT Next? ATT Next offers you the opportunity to get a 
new smartphone every year or every 18 months.  You have the 
choice to pay for your smartphone over 20 or 24 monthly 
installments.  After 12 monthly installment payments (under 
20-month plan) or 18 monthly installment payments (under 24-month 
plan), you may trade your smartphone in to upgrade to a new 
smartphone, or choose to keep it and make the remaining monthly 
installment payments.  With ATT Next, tax is due at the time of 
sale, but there are no down payment, activation, upgrade, or 
financing fees required.







Who is eligible for ATT Next? ATT Next is available for current 
customers who are eligible for an upgrade and whose accounts are 
in good standing, or for new customers with qualifying credit.


With respect to business customers and their Corporate 
Responsibility Users, a qualified small business agreement (for 
example, an ATT Mobile Business Agreement) is also required.







Are there additional charges? Sales tax is charged on your new 
smartphone at the time of sale.  There's no down payment and no 
activation or upgrade fee.







Is a contract required with ATT Next? ATT Next requires that 
you sign an installment agreement to pay for the smartphone over 
20 or 24 monthly payments.  If you cancel your wireless service, 
the remaining unpaid balance on the smartphone is due.  Also, a 
Wireless Customer Agreement for your wireless service or 
qualified small business agreement (voice and data) is required.







How many installment plans can I have on my account? There's a 
limit of four per Consumer and Individual Responsibility account, 
and 10 per small business account.  This includes ATT Next 
installment agreements and tablet installment agreements.







What devices are eligible for ATT Next? You can choose from a 
huge selection of the latest and most popular smartphones!







Do I own the smartphone? Or is this a leasing offer? The 
smartphone is yours, and you're responsible for 20 or 24 monthly 
installment payments.  You're also responsible for any loss, 
theft, or damage to the smartphone - both during the installment 
agreement period and afterward.  We recommend you purchase the 
optional Mobile Insurance to protect your investment.






How do I get a new smartphone every year with the program? After 
you have made 12 installment payments under a 20-month plan, or 
18 installment payments under a 24-month plan, if your wireless 
account is in good standing, you can trade in your current 
smartphone to upgrade to a new one.  All trade-ins must be fully 
functional, in good physical condition, and have the activation 
lock disabled.  Select a new smartphone under a qualifying offer, 
which may include a new ATT Next installment agreement.







How do I get a new tablet with the program? If you purchased a 
tablet with an ATT Next installment plan (prior to Nov.  20, 
2013), you can trade in the tablet for a new tablet after you 
have made 12 installment payments, but before you have made 20 
installment payments, if your wireless account is in good 
standing.  The tablet must be fully functional and in good 
physical condition.  Your new tablet can be purchased with a new 
installment plan or any other currently available offers.  
Tablets purchased on or after Nov.  20, 2013, are not eligible 
for ATT Next trade-ins.







When I trade in my smartphone after 12 or 18 months and get a new 
one, what's the length of my new installment plan? When you 
trade in your smartphone, no further installments are billed for 
the smartphone you traded in.  You can start over with a new ATT 
Next installment plan on a new smartphone.  Currently available 
installment plans are 20 and 24 months long.







Will I be able to pay off this smartphone early? Yes, you have 
the option to pay off your installment agreement, but the full 
outstanding balance will be due immediately.


 





What payments are due if I cancel ATT Next? With ATT Next, you 
can pay off your installment payments in full at any time.  If 
you want to cancel your wirless service with ATT, the full 
outstanding balance on your installment agreement becomes due

RE: the 16 or the 64G?

2014-09-28 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
As somebody pointed out, most companies are trying to get the last buck out
of you they can. If you really do the math something like ATT Next wil
definitely cost you more money. You are basically leasing the phone and a
lease will always be more expensive than buying something outright. I
understand how people who opt for this choice are probably justifying it by
saying It might be a bit more, but not so much and :I have more options,
but I think part of it is that companies make it pretty confusing so most
people don't bother sitting down and really crunching the numbers. It just
sounds good and it's like Oh well, what's another $30 a month if I don't
have to make a $200 downpayment.
The fact is that ATT or whichever other company still basically owns your
phone for the duration and has you by the short hairs.
Unfortunately, in the US you can't even buy an iPhone from the Apple Store
outright and unlocked on launch day as you can here in Canada, most European
countries and Australia, New Zealand and so on. I guess the large carriers
have too big of a lobby to allow that.
I am with an MVNO owned by Telus which is one of the large carriers in
Canada. I get fantastic coverage throughout the country and pay $50 Canadian
a months. Of course I did pay about $1,000 for my iPhone 5S 64 Gb last year,
but any other carrier where subsidies are offered would charge me about $30
a months more. That means over even just a one year period I would pay about
$360 more, then if I add the $429 or whatever the Canadian price is for
getting a 64 Gb phone on contract I am already at $800. I could probably get
between $400 and $500 if I sold my unlocked 5S 64 Gb now so even if I did
want to buy an iPhone 6 I would probably be better off by $200 to $300.

 OK, so I guess that just means you pay for the phone in one year with
 additional payments instead of having a regular 2-year contract without
 additional payments after which time the phone is also yours.
 Do you then not pay $199, $299 or whatever the initial payment is at all?

 With the next plan from ATT, you don't have to keep getting a new phone.
 Once you have paid for your phone, your bill goes back to normal.  That is

As far as why it is the case, i'm not sure. I thought it will make

One thing that nobody has mentioned so far is that in the UK at least,
the price for the 64GB 6 is the same as the 32GB 5S when it was

first, but when I found out that its price was inline with the
previous 32GB price it didn't seem as bad. Personally I'd rather Apple
introduced a cheaper 32GB model instead of simply dropping that
capacity, but with the 6 pricing, your actually getting more storage
for your money than you were before.

Of course I could be wrong again; but, I know I am able to pay 
off my next plan at any time, and then I'm thinking ATT would 
have to unlock the phone since I would have then paid full price.  
Not quite the same as buying outright on launch day from the 
Apple Store, but I guess as close as I can get.

Subject: RE: the 16 or the 64G?

As somebody pointed out, most companies are trying to get the 
last buck out
of you they can.  If you really do the math something like ATT 
Next wil
definitely cost you more money.  You are basically leasing the 
phone and a
lease will always be more expensive than buying something 
outright.  I
understand how people who opt for this choice are probably 
justifying it by
saying It might be a bit more, but not so much and :I have 
more options,
but I think part of it is that companies make it pretty confusing 
so most
people don't bother sitting down and really crunching the 
numbers.  It just
sounds good and it's like Oh well, what's another $30 a month 
if I don't

have to make a $200 downpayment.
The fact is that ATT or whichever other company still basically 
owns your

phone for the duration and has you by the short hairs.
Unfortunately, in the US you can't even buy an iPhone from the 
Apple Store
outright and unlocked on launch day as you can here in Canada, 
most European
countries and Australia, New Zealand and so on.  I guess the 
large carriers

have too big of a lobby to allow that.
I am with an MVNO owned by Telus which is one of the large 
carriers in
Canada.  I get fantastic coverage throughout the country and pay 
$50 Canadian
a months.  Of course I did pay about $1,000 for my iPhone 5S 64 
Gb last year,
but any other carrier where subsidies are offered would charge me 
about $30
a months more.  That means over even just a one year period I 
would pay about
$360 more, then if I add the $429 or whatever the Canadian price 
is for
getting a 64 Gb phone on contract I am already at $800.  I could 
probably get
between $400 and $500 if I sold my unlocked 5S 64 Gb now so even 
if I did
want to buy an iPhone 6 I would probably be better off by $200 to 
$300.

can't use that gift card toward your phone, and what you get for your phone

 Since I didn't see a copyright notice at the bottom of the page, here is the 
 ATT next FAQ information from their website; and, best I can tell, one does 
 pay more with the Next plan than with a two-year contract, but then one has 
 more freedom with the Next plan or with buying the phone outright.
 Taken from:
 
 www.att.com/shop/wireless/next.html
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Expand All
 What is ATT Next? ATT Next offers you the opportunity to get a new 
 smartphone every year or every 18 months.  You have the choice to pay for 
 your smartphone over 20 or 24 monthly installments.  After 12 monthly 
 installment payments (under 20-month plan) or 18 monthly installment payments 
 (under 24-month plan), you may trade your smartphone in to upgrade to a new 
 smartphone, or choose to keep it and make the remaining monthly installment 
 payments.  With ATT Next, tax is due at the time of sale, but there are no 
 down payment, activation, upgrade, or financing fees required.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Who is eligible for ATT Next? ATT Next is available for current customers 
 who are eligible for an upgrade and whose accounts are in good standing, or 
 for new customers with qualifying credit.
 
 With respect to business customers and their Corporate Responsibility Users, 
 a qualified small business agreement (for example, an ATT Mobile Business 
 Agreement) is also required.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Are there additional charges? Sales tax is charged on your new smartphone at 
 the time of sale.  There's no down payment and no activation or upgrade fee.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Is a contract required with ATT Next? ATT Next requires that you sign an 
 installment agreement to pay for the smartphone over 20 or 24 monthly 
 payments.  If you cancel your wireless service, the remaining unpaid balance 
 on the smartphone is due.  Also, a Wireless Customer Agreement for your 
 wireless service or qualified small business agreement (voice and data) is 
 required.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 How many installment plans can I have on my account? There's a limit of four 
 per Consumer and Individual Responsibility account, and 10 per small business 
 account.  This includes ATT Next installment agreements and tablet 
 installment agreements.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 What devices are eligible for ATT Next? You can choose from a huge selection 
 of the latest and most popular smartphones!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Do I own the smartphone? Or is this a leasing offer? The smartphone is yours, 
 and you're responsible for 20 or 24 monthly installment payments.  You're 
 also responsible for any loss, theft, or damage to the smartphone - both 
 during the installment agreement period and afterward.  We recommend you 
 purchase the optional Mobile Insurance to protect your investment.
 
 
 
 
 
 How do I get a new smartphone every year with the program? After you have 
 made 12 installment payments under a 20-month plan, or 18 installment 
 payments under a 24-month plan, if your wireless account is in good standing, 
 you can trade in your current smartphone to upgrade to a new one.  All 
 trade-ins must be fully functional, in good physical condition, and have the 
 activation lock disabled.  Select a new smartphone under a qualifying offer, 
 which may include a new ATT Next installment agreement.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 How do I get a new tablet with the program? If you purchased a tablet with an 
 ATT Next installment plan (prior to Nov.  20, 2013), you can trade in the 
 tablet for a new tablet after you have made 12 installment payments, but 
 before you have made 20 installment payments, if your wireless account is in 
 good standing.  The tablet must be fully functional and in good physical

Lowis and Gale if you do the math you are paying a lot more for the
phone than if you wait till your contract is up. Remember companies
are in it for the money. If you are paying $30/month for 18 months,
then you are paying $540 instead of either $199 or $299.

OK, so I guess that just means you pay for the phone in one year with
additional payments instead of having a regular 2-year contract without
additional payments after which time the phone is also yours.
Do you then not pay $199, $299 or whatever the initial payment is at all?

I think its an overall trend with smartphones. There are lots of

either give you the 16gb or 64gb (discount Samsung).

As far as why it is the case, i'm not sure. I thought it will make

 With the next plan from ATT, you don't have to keep getting a new phone.
 Once you have paid for your phone, your bill goes back to normal.  That is
 what I was told anyway, and is the reason I went with that plan for this
 phone.
 
 Take care,

 Plans like ATT Next and whatever they are called from other carriers are
 rip-offs and they are simply designed to lock people in to getting a new
 phone every year and, of course, paying the premium price for it.

 I think it used to be $199, $299, and $399 on contract in the states for
 the
 
 3 storage options. That $50 a month plan with Sprint looks worth jumping
 back in and getting the 64 gig iPhone 6. The big question is whether to do
 easy pay, or to do their rental thing for iPhone for Life.

 I think its an overall trend with smartphones. There are lots of
 success Androy phone model, no longer give you te option of 32gb. They
 either give you the 16gb or 64gb (discount Samsung).
 
 As far as why it is the case, i'm not sure. I thought it will make
 more sense for apple to have 32gb, 64gb and 128gb. But who knows what
 behind the brain of it. Maybe, we Apple might want to retain the 32gb
 soully for iPads.

they did before, such as Podcasts, Pages, keynote, Numbers, Garage

 It all depends on your expected usage. That is, if you never store music,
 movies, audio books, tons of voices, or huge apps on your phone, 16GB is
 fine. If, however, the extra 48GB is worth the $100 so you *can* fit all
 the
 stuff I just listed, that's fine too. Basically, there's no functional
 difference between the two, and the 64GB is $100 more. Only you know if the
 price increase and thereby storage increase is worth it. Personally, I have
 a 16GB phone that currently has 4GB free, but no music or movies on it, and
 I don't use audio books.

RE: the 16 or the 64G?

2014-09-27 Thread Rose Combs
I sure did not expect to get a 128, but... only luck I have had in a while
was at the Verizon store today despite not being able to turn in Tom's
phone, have not figured out if I can get his e-mail on my computer loud
thunderstorm here last night so I spent most of the night reading the one
book I managed to grab off my wish list.

I echo the sentiments of many on this thread--if you can afford it, go
for the 64GB.

 It all depends on your expected usage. That is, if you never store music,
 movies, audio books, tons of voices, or huge apps on your phone, 16GB is
 fine. If, however, the extra 48GB is worth the $100 so you *can* fit all
 the
 stuff I just listed, that's fine too. Basically, there's no functional
 difference between the two, and the 64GB is $100 more. Only you know if
 the
 price increase and thereby storage increase is worth it. Personally, I
 have
 a 16GB phone that currently has 4GB free, but no music or movies on it,
 and
 I don't use audio books.

Hi,

I always tell people to go for as much storage as your wallet will allow.  The 
way you use your phone might change in the future.  Why possibly pigeon hold 
yourself if you don't half to?

 Considering some of the iOS updates for people have been between 900
 MB and, at least on my iPhone 5 this morning, about 2.8 GB, I would go
 for the 64 GB. Even if you never use all the space, that will give you
 plenty. And, if you get into storing books, music, pictures, and the
 like on your phone, you will have plenty of space. I have been using a
 64 GB phone for the last two years and even with all that stuff, I
 still am using only two thirds of the total storage with about 20 gigs

 It all depends on your expected usage. That is, if you never store music,
 movies, audio books, tons of voices, or huge apps on your phone, 16GB is
 fine. If, however, the extra 48GB is worth the $100 so you *can* fit all
 the
 stuff I just listed, that's fine too. Basically, there's no functional
 difference between the two, and the 64GB is $100 more. Only you know if
 the
 price increase and thereby storage increase is worth it. Personally, I

 a 16GB phone that currently has 4GB free, but no music or movies on it,

 I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf.

 I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper

 thrown in the trash!

 Then God gave me a new heart and life:

 His joy for my despairing tears!

 And now, every day:

 This I call to mind,

 and therefore I have hope:

 The steadfast love of the Lord

 never ceases;

 his mercies never come to an end;

 they are new every morning;

 great is your faithfulness.

Re: the 16 or the 64G?

2014-09-26 Thread Ben Mustill-Rose
Hi,

One thing that nobody has mentioned so far is that in the UK at least,
the price for the 64GB 6 is the same as the 32GB 5S when it was
released. I was a bit annoyed about having to go for the 64GB 6 at
first, but when I found out that its price was inline with the
previous 32GB price it didn't seem as bad. Personally I'd rather Apple
introduced a cheaper 32GB model instead of simply dropping that
capacity, but with the 6 pricing, your actually getting more storage
for your money than you were before.

Cheers,
Ben.

Re: the 16 or the 64G?

I think its an overall trend with smartphones. There are lots of
success Androy phone model, no longer give you te option of 32gb. They
either give you the 16gb or 64gb (discount Samsung).

As far as why it is the case, i'm not sure. I thought it will make
more sense for apple to have 32gb, 64gb and 128gb. But who knows what
behind the brain of it. Maybe, we Apple might want to retain the 32gb
soully for iPads.

It all depends on your expected usage. That is, if you never store music,
movies, audio books, tons of voices, or huge apps on your phone, 16GB is
fine. If, however, the extra 48GB is worth the $100 so you *can* fit all
the
stuff I just listed, that's fine too. Basically, there's no functional
difference between the two, and the 64GB is $100 more. Only you know if
the
price increase and thereby storage increase is worth it. Personally, I
have
a 16GB phone that currently has 4GB free, but no music or movies on it,
and
I don't use audio books.

I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf.

I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper

thrown in the trash!

Then God gave me a new heart and life:

His joy for my despairing tears!

And now, every day:

This I call to mind,

and therefore I have hope:

The steadfast love of the Lord

never ceases;

his mercies never come to an end;

they are new every morning;

great is your faithfulness.

Hi Pam,

 

The KNFB Reader does not store things on your phone unless  you actually
safe a document. But it is easy to export the documents to Dropbox and in
any case, it would take an aweful lot of documents to make a difference even
on a 16 Gb phone.
