I'm thinking about it because my plan is eligible and my current iphone 4 has issues....super cracked screen and I can't hear anything!
I think I like the gold model.

Yep! We pre-ordered the gold 64gb 6 plus for me as I'm a wackadoo that likes the bigger model (I also never put my phone in my pocket). We ordered the 64gb 6 for DH.
The *rush* for us was that T-mobile is currently paying ETF for switching over. We don't know how long they'll offer that deal, and knew we wanted to switch back to iphones from Android. So, it made sense for us to do it now while they're still running the promotion.

It's not in the budget right now so we are going to wait (much harder for DH than me!)

Probably not until right before the next release. I recently upgraded to the 5S and got it for cheap!

Contract is up in Nov, I'll see if Verizon is still offering it for free w/ a 2 yr renewal then... But I had wanted to leave Verizon and go on a cheaper plan, so we shall see. I'm over the need to get the newest phone!
GOLD / wonderful apricot / 22646 posts
Yep, going to get next month. We're both due for upgrades! Also like the gold!
blogger / pomegranate / 3201 posts
Probably not. I might be due for an upgrade, not sure, but I'm ok with my 5. My husband has my old 4, though, and he really wants to upgrade. I just don't know if we can afford it, though.

Haha, no! I used to get every new iPhone when they came out, but I am using a refurbished 4 and honestly, it's perfectly fine. So if anything, I would upgrade to another refurb in the 5.

Nope, I'm actually getting ready to cancel my personal phone and only use my work iphone. They are both 5s.

DH wanted it for his next upgrade (end of November) but not sure if he still will with the size. Frustrating, because he used his upgrade for me to get me the 5s - but I would kill for the extra storage!! He uses it for phone calls, texts and fantasy football.

Yep! Ordered the 6 in gold this morning. I was well overdue for an upgrade, I am still rocking the 4. It is in pretty bad shape.

I just got an iPhone for the first time a year ago. I don't really get rushing out for a new one? I wish phones were built to last more than a couple years.
GOLD / wonderful apricot / 22646 posts
@sorrycharlie: you should give DH the 5s and take the 6 in November!
wonderful cherry / 21504 posts
I'm getting a new iPhone for sure but not sure if I'll get a 5s for super cheap or a 6. I need a new one- my 3 year old 4 is so slow and memory is maxed out.

The iPhone 6 seems too big! My 5S is barely fits into my backpocket as is...
nectarine / 2192 posts
I haven't decided. I have a 4S, and the only issue I have is that I am constantly bumping up against the 32MB. I was planning on getting the 6, but I think I'm going to wait and see what the reviews are. Besides, I am currently with Verizon, and am considering switching to DH's plan with AT&T. DH thinks I should order right away, but if I don't get it for a month or two, it's not the end of the world.

I just preordered a gold 64g iPhone 6! My 4s has served me well for 2.5 years but it's running really slow and I'm constantly out of storage. Plus I think the camera in the newer models is significantly better. I can't wait!
nectarine / 2765 posts
Nope...my (4S, I think?) works perfectly fine. I keep my phones til I absolutely need a new one.

Preordered the 64g iphone 6 (gray), I traded in my iphone 4s and got $200 for it through verizon. I'm sad I'm not on my unlimited plan anymore but it was bound to happen.
honeydew / 7303 posts
I am never due for an upgrade! I feel like when my upgrade is coming up they change everything and it's always 6 months away!
grapefruit / 4442 posts
@sorrycharlie: he can ask if they can bump up his upgrade to this month, its only 2 months, they will usually do that. Then you can give him your 5 and you take the 6. win win in my book
admin / watermelon / 14210 posts
nope upgraded in january so won't be able to for a while! i definitely prefer the bigger phone!
hostess / watermelon / 14932 posts
@mrsjyw: I'm hoping he will suggest that but, I can't argue. He always has taken my old crap phones and let me get the new one. So if he wants the new one...I have to let him
blogger / wonderful cherry / 21628 posts
Nope. I've had the 5s for less than a year and am still happy with it.
nectarine / 2272 posts
Already did! Preordered the gold 64gb this morning! Arriving september 19!! Cant wait
eggplant / 11824 posts
We will be eligible for an upgrade next month, but will likely wait several months to upgrade. Our 5's are still plugging along fine!
honeydew / 7235 posts
Yes! And Verizon is doing an incredible deal, they will buy your old iPhone for $200 - making the 16 gig phone free or the 64 gig phone &100!!!!!
persimmon / 1483 posts
Yes. I hate my iPhone 5 and am hoping the 6 restores my love for apple.
GOLD / wonderful apricot / 22646 posts
@hellobeeboston: are they buying other smartphones, or just old iphones?
pear / 1580 posts
DH, BIL and SIL and I are on the same Verizon family plan together and are paying way too much. We're thinking about getting the 6 as we switch over to T-Mobile, probably after the frenzy dies down a bit. I'm not huge on upgrading because my 5s is way awesomer than I need it to be, but hey, if it doesn't cost me anything, I'll take a 6! Sigh, I love Apple.
watermelon / 14467 posts
No, I'm probably going to upgrade to the 5s when I'm up for renewal in January.
GOLD / wonderful coffee bean / 18478 posts
I wasn't going to, but then heard about them buying your old iPhone for $200 so maybe? I have a 5 and there really isn't anything wrong with it though...
GOLD / wonderful coconut / 33402 posts
Nope, just for DH. He is over due, still has a 3. Waiting till next month to buy it though since then work will cover a part of it. He doesn't want the plus since it is so big and won't fit in his pocket.
eggplant / 11824 posts
@hellobeeboston: ooooh, thanks fo rthe heads up about Verizon! We may be upgrading sooner than I thought in that case!!!
