Lucky, I did the 4s to 6 two years ago and it was simple, this time I have a mess on the SE. I did not really wish to have the 7 an adapter to use headphones was the main reason, something more to carry or lose or break. I looked at one, decided I like the SE form factor better but, it may go back I tried the iCloud restore but a lot of contacts were missing and my 6 backed up to iCloud daily and I had performed a backup to the computer at 11:40 Saturday morning but still having some problems with the phone. I wish Apple had not taken away the ability to restore apps! After all iTunes says if you use encrypted backup your passwords are saved, not so in my experience.
I thought upgrade should be easy, this one has been bothersome all the way around. Love the size, the fact that the power button is on the top again, in fact, but unless it starts working better with all the stuff I had on the 6 which I still have until tomorrow, I may give it back and keep the phone that works for me with everything just where I want it.

I hope you and Zeb are doing well. I have the iPhone 7 and I went from a 5S to the seventh. The seven isn't as big as the six or 6S. In fact it's just a hair bigger than my 5S. It's just a touch wider and attach taller. Still perfect for pocket-size. Honestly the real estate is the same as working with the iPhone 5 or 5S. I like it because it's faster and the home button is different but in a good way. The battery seems to keep longer. And compare to my 16 gig 5S my 128 gig seven can store much more. Most features seem to work just the way they worked on the older phones. The seven does not have a headphone jack but it does have an adapter that hooks into the charging port. I myself prefer to use bone conduction headphones (aftershokz) I paired my Focus 40 blue with the seven and it worked great. There's a new way to edit apps and in that feature you can also share apps. iCloud back up and restore worked wonderfully for setting up my seven. I really didn't have to do much other did enable voiceover type in my Apple ID and password and I was done. I'm not sure what else you want to know but feel free to email me if you have any other questions.

Can you compare the SE and the seven for me as far as features go? I like the smaller screen size of the SE but wondering what other differences there are between the two. Thanks.
