The Wide, Wide World of Apple

[Barrister]

Just upgraded my 4 to a 6 yesterday

Well?

He's two up or two down, depending on how you look at it.

Or he's started to hit a lot of confused people on the golf course.

That's actually a hell of an upgrade, considering it went 4 -> 4s -> 5 -> 5s ->6.

I'm willing to bet Jos noticed a substantial improvement.

I don't want to get rid of my 4s, but I fear Apple will make me;  they're already making me remove apps due to the memory requirements of the OS whenever it gets updated.

I'm feeling pressure on upgrading my iPad 2. Assholes.

Your 4S came out in 2011.  It's getting long in the tooth already.  Maybe not today, but you will want to upgrade it at some point.

I don't see why "upgrade" must equal "upsize".  The technology was supposedly getting smaller.

It's what the market wanted, apparently.  Apple was losing ground to Samsung until they released bigger phones, and now they've made it all back.

I've been enjoying 6plus since it first came out.

Still clinging to my 4S.

I am easily past the time I can upgrade...but I have no pressing urgency.  And if I did decide to get a new phone, I'd be tempted to experiment with a Windows phone.

Conversely, the Galaxy S4 Mini (the size of a 4S) was by far the worst performer in the line to the point where they pulled the plug on it.

Got my replacement for the Air in today.  A shiny new Pro Retina.

I took apart an old 15" Pro on Friday to replace the battery (old battery was toast), RAM (from 4 to 8), and HDD (to SSD).  Apple seems even more obsessed with absurdly small screws than other laptop manufacturers.  They were nice enough to make it so you don't have to disassemble the whole damn thing to get to that stuff though, unlike some others.

[katmai]

hahaha?

Just was chuckling at after without laptop in half a decade I didn't wade back in as it were, and dived back in with top of line Mac laptop.

[garbon]

Ah, gotcha.
