    Just curious for those who are also all currently on iphone. Has anyone else been unable to sync their phone up? I hadn't done mine since march to my laptop and last week I tried to get some new music ready for my vacation. Updated itunes and all, but it wouldn't sync. Kept trying a few times, but it would stop half way through. Now it is at the point where Itunes doesn't even acknowledge the phone being plugged into laptop, nor can I wifi sync. I tried a chunk of the steps they suggested after running the diagnostics, to no avail. Currently a pretty big issue because if I can't sync up the last 6-7 months of information off my phone that puts me in a not so great position in terms of a new one.

    Has anyone switched between the Galaxy (S or Note) to the iPhone ? I have had an iPhone for so long and its getting a bit boring.

    Any opinions? I am on the Rogers waitlist for a 128 gold (wife) and 256 matte black for me. But I have been reading up on the SGS7 Edge and it looks pretty nice.

    I am on the S7 Edge. ITs ok. I am actually thinking of switching over to the Iphone. But not sure if I should get the 7 plus or get the 6s Plus.
    Suggestions?

    No but ive been having huge issues with Apple locking my icloud account. Like twice a day now i have to unlock my account. I changed my password just to be sure and it still happens.

    I feel someone is trying to hack my account but there is never any emails about X attempts your account has been locked, just randomly locked.

    If you can find a used 6S at a good price and don't mind dealing with kijiji idiots, I'd go for the 6S over the 7. Just make sure it's not going to get blacklisted because of stolen phone. The changes to the 7 aren't exactly huge with the exception of the camera. New home button? Who cares. A little more waterproof? Who cares. More vivid screen colors? Who cares. If you do shoot a lot of photos and videos, that would be the only reason a 7 is better than the 6S.

    If you're going to buy new, the difference is pretty small @ $150 so no point in even looking at the 6S.

    I would just focus on the SGS7, HTC 10, or the new Google Nexus/Pixel devices that will be announced Oct 4 as those are pretty much going to be your best options to pick from in Android land. I would also look at the Nexus 6P if it's not too big for you.

    After that it's going to be up to you which you prefer. If you can try one out for yourself either at a store or from a friend/coworker that's probably your best bet. Google also has 14 days no questions asked returns if you order one from them and don't like it.

    Those are probably going to be the best reference points to compare and see if you want to try it out or stay with Apple.

    They have a migration tool now so it should be pretty easy.

    As to which phone you want that's up to you

    I dropped 3 spots again and it's not even on sale yet? I guess people pulling out perhaps and canceling their reservations?

    Anyway, I have a brand new condition (1 month old - replaced under Apple care) iPhone 6S 16gb in Space Grey that I will be unloading once I get the 7. It's with Rogers/Fido. Let me know if anyone is interested.

    Saw a couple of quick review videos on Youtube and most people are saying that Black looks sick and better than Jet Black. Wish I had gone with the Black now lol.

    Call, to be safe. No point in waiting for a 32 gb when you paid for 128.

    2 different chipsets, Apple is using Intel wireless chipsets in most of the new phones. But Intel doesn't , currently, make a CDMA chipset ( which to be honest is a legacy standard anyways). So any phone sold on Sprint or Verizon is using Qualcomm hardware which still has CDMA support.

    Only really matters because Verizon and Sprint still have some smatterings of CDMA where LTE isn't available.

    I'm sure there is a reason Apple went with Intel in the GSM phones, but we will likely never know. Could just be supply chain management and not relying on a single provider for 100% of its phones etc.

    It's because Qualcomm wasn't licensing Ericsson patents in its chips. Ericsson was suing Apple for profits on every iPhone because it's using unlicensed Ericsson patents, and it ended up with this:

    https://www.ericsson.com/news/1974964

    Which costs Apple money on every iPhone sold to Ericsson because of Qualcomm's incompetence.

    Heads up for any one doing a iOS10 update, it is sending phone to recovery mode. I did an update on mine and it is in recovery mode.
