Hi Allen and all, thank you for all the information and suggestions. I will look into this. I will have to decide rather soon as my 6s is getting tired. Thanks again, Andy and Shubert

As for Touch Id, well, it sounds like maybe we may see devices in a year or two or three which have both Face Id and the option of Touch Id, but I wouldn’t hold my breath and I think if Face Id is setup properly you will have little trouble with it especially on the iPhone 11 where it works at even greater angles and faster.

For example, if you really want a home button, your choices are the iPhone 7 or 8. If you don't want to deal with face ID, your choices are also the iPhone 7 or 8. If face ID is not an issue and you plan to get a new iPhone with 256GB of memory, I'd recommend the 11 instead of the XR simply because it is the latest model with the most power and will work longer into the future than older models. Be aware that the newer model phones are continuing to get larger however so you might visit a store where you can put your hands on one to ensure its size won't be a problem. Good luck with your upgrade decision. Alan Lemly From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Andrew J.

Which phone would any of you recommend to upgrade to? I will look for believe the phones with 256 gigs as I don’t want to worry about adding apps and deleting them. I also have 5 grand children and have tons of videos that is sent to me via txt and tons of audible books that I want to keep on the phone. I know Richard recommended the 8s or something. The other wish is to get a phone that is not too big as I don’t need to see anything but to use gestures...I am totally blind. Thank you so much for all this list does for people.
