    Does anyone have problem about which module should order?  I am so stuck with the size and the colours. But I definitely need a 64G:)  

    1) What exactly are you stuck on?

    2) Does Apple's Upgrade Program require you to keep the device for a full year or could you swap it out for a different size, colour, or capacity from month-to-month?

    I guess the downside is it's locked to ATT. But grandfathered unlimited data was my reason for buying under one last 2 yr contract for $499 (128 SG Plus). My monthly charge isn't going to change no matter how I buy it. So I agree with you. Just keep in mind that if you wait til December, ATT might not be offering 2-yr subsidized iPhones any more by then.

    I see the use of grandfathered a lot with some old plans that are no longer if one were to sign up today. I want to make sure it's understood that "grandfathered" here is not something guaranteed by the carrier. They can drop that plan (or the customer) just as easily as you can drop them as a carrier. If you're not under contract, this is very simple for them. They can just end it. If you are under contract they can still do it just as easily, but anything you owe on that contract would be null and void, which means you can then jump to another carrier without any ETF and you get to own the handset free and clear. The only reason they allow people to keep these older plans is because it behooves them to keep the same customers, but if the unlimited plans are abused and/or the cost for keeping the unlimited plans becomes too costly compared to the number of users who are "grandfathered" they will end them.

    Do you mostly use it as a phone as a (more) portable iPad? If the latter then the Plus, with it's larger screen, has the advantage of, well, a larger screen. That's the decision path I went down anyway: I sort of never use mine for voice so a larger screen for various visual stuff, whether email or web content consumption, had weight for me.

    :D

     

    It's a good point that I need to understand what I use it for. I prefer it's a phone function, if you understand what do I mean, more portable and easy control... I got a iPad air at home.

     

    Thank you with your reply and make my cloud away... <img class=" src="http://forums-files.appleinsider.com/images/smilies//lol.gif" />

    1) What exactly are you stuck on? I need to finalise the size, s or s+; colour: rose gold or silver grey?



    2) Does Apple's Upgrade Program require you to keep the device for a full year or could you swap it out for a different size, colour, or capacity from month-to-month? I am from New Zealand, I don't need to follow any plan or any restriction, I am thinking to order the phone from Apple shop and pay the phone as a prepay phone.

     

    Thanks for your reply and I didn't expect anyone would help me out. Thank you thank you. :)

    Because i rarely ever used my iPad but I liked the larger screen for those rare occasions I went with the Plus. I never regretted that decision. Fits in my front jeans pockets just fine, but I also don't wear skinny jeans.

    Railriders VersaTac pants have GREAT iPhone pockets that fit my 6 Plus perfectly, even in a case.

    Thank you...

     

    Yes, I basically wear skinny all year long though...

     

    Do anyone know that all the iPhone assemble in China? Or have different factories around the world?

     

    Just a question, don't feel offended...:embarrass

    Yes and no. For all intents and purposes, assembly is in China, through Foxconn. However, there are some caveats. For example, there is a Foxconn in Brazil, which I believe is done to heavily reduce the tariffs levied on foreign imports. Also, there are innumerable components that may or may not be physically built in China.

    Apple is very transparent with their supplier and assembly list…

    Thanks for the tips though... just upgraded the iOS9 during the weekend. Not too bad for my 4s, that's why I have to order the new iPhone.

     

    Good question, how? I made up my mind to order rose gold 6s, thanks for your advise and help. :)
