The design looks like the iPhone 4/5. I always though those phones looked awesome so I wouldn't mind going back to that design. The camera looks stupid though.

Hey DM haven't seen you post in a while.. I heard September but I'll believe it when I see it. Also heard no finger print sensor but retina/facial scan for unlocking etc and bigger screens.

Thanks breitlings.
My current 5S is just about kaput. Hope 8 resolves my needs. If setup was long and aggravating before with waits and techs taking so long to sync phone to cell service, it'll be a few hours shot for sure getting the 8 serviceable to the customer??

Could not agree more! 4 or was it 4s...was my favorite incarnation. Felt so much more quality than anything since.

My 5s was still working but falling apart, but I bought it used. I went for the SE which is almost the exact same phone but twice as fast.

Are you going to wait for the 8? I would imagine the lines will kill a few hours but everything should port over on outlook or icloud.

My 5s is having issue of randomly won't wake up with any press of button, and i have to do a hard reset to resolve the issue.

I believe this is a "feature" built into the iOS updated to "remind" us its time to upgrade the phone. :D

I'm thinking of upgrading my old Moto G, iPhone is very interesting but don't have other Mac systems so it won't be easy getting used to methinks. Probably going to commit a sin and buy a OnePlus 5.

I just heard that they will both have the same colors. That's not good.

iPhone 7s here- holding off on the next one- since now I have to pay full retail, changes are not worth it- before with the family account I could get an upgrade for $200 fairly regularly. Also I'm concerned about all the new tech. All the iPhones I've had have been the S models.

I'm pretty sure there is no 7S. We are currently on the 7

Rumor now is that there will be a 7s, 7s+ and 8/special.

The 8/special will be oled, curved, etc and start at $999 (or close to).

Samsung note 8 is $950.

I really don't like the idea of my phone eating into my watch money :D

And that's why I am still using iPhone 5s :p

I am still very happy with my 7+. Not sure if I'll upgrade this year unless the 8 is out of this world.

I'm very happy with my 7, but will definitely be upgrading to the "8/special/x/pro." Loving the rumored specs

Think I'm going to downsize to a 7 or 7s from my 6+.

I almost only use my phone for navigation, quick email and Trf. Not much else.

Oh wait, pics. That's all

I have an iPhone 6S (the big one), but I may downsize to the smaller 8. I like big screens but don't like the size in the jeans.

I don't think the 8 will be smaller from what I read.

Correct. The size will be in between the 7 and 7+, but closer to the 7.
