Hi Mich, How much do you pay per month and who is your carrier? Read my message to Tom regarding switching to a lower cost carrier like Koodo here in Canada. In your case with an iPhone 6 I would say going to an iPhone 7 wouldn’t be such a bad thing especially if your OK with what you are paying and if that monthly payment doesn’t change. Also, if you were on a 2-year contract which is now paid off you should be able to keep your iPhone 6 which means after you get your iPhone 7 you can probably sell it and still get $100 for it or maybe even a bit more if it has a larger storage capacity, e.g. if it’s at least a 64Gb then maybe you could ask $150..

I recently was contacted by my phone company to upgrade my phone. I am using a eye phone 6 and they said that I could get a eye phone 7 for 0 dollers. Since I have payed off my phone I am wondering what others thoughts are? Since my phone is working fine right now for what I use it for witch is mainly texting, e mail, kik, fb messenger etc. From Mich.

I also advise my clients similarly. Unless the new models have something that you absolutely must have, I would stick with your iPhone 7 and wait till next year to see what Apple offers up. I am currently using an iPhone 7 running the iOS 12 beta and it’s working just fine.
