I hope they puta sapphire screen on the 6/6s

 

[Bert.]

I didn't understand how someone could drop their phone in the toilet until I did it myself . Like Bert. said, anything can happen to anybody. Making a phone waterproof is about as necessary as it being able to make calls, imo.

i had a 3G,3GS,4 and guess what. those lasted me forever, rarely dropped, no water BS.

i went and bought the 5 for full retail cash. 6 days later it falls off the back of the toilet on a toilet paper roll and into the toilet :x

3 weeks after that, still worked perfect and i spilt syrup all over it. buttons on the side were sticky for a year

phone worked like a champ tho

 

[s dubl]

Waterproof/resistant > wireless charging

I don't see how that's even debatable.

 

[yjaybrooks]

Also bigger screen longer battery life and power saving option can't wait

Nah it was actually before I did my business.

I was about to take a smash and had my phone in my hand. Went to put it in my pocket as I was turning around to pull my pants down but i missed and it fell right in. I grabbed it right away and threw it in a ziplock bag with some rice for 2 days. Still working .

how so one benefits all users... the other benefits just the ppl who are irresponsible and/or careless. A much improved battery and wireless charging would be a feature that would be used by everyone. 

Dont see how being able to charge your phone anywhere or having iuno a 16 hr battery life would be less beneficial then a feature that helps those who drop the phone while washing their car or taking a dump or fill the need to shower/bath and text at the same time.

Not to mention you can buy a waterproof case...cant buy double battery life or wireless charging

Hell and tons/millions of ppl text and drive... so is that not careless because millions of ppl do it? 

i find that funny since half of everyone in here is saying man i hate how my battery be dying etc...... i hate i can only use 4/5 hrs before it start dying etc.... How many ppl said man i hate how i be dropping my phone in the tub. Im tired of taking a dump and my phone falling in the toilet. 

Hell alot of ppl do things that are careless. Just because it occurs often still doesnt change the fact. In every instance im positive there was a preventive way from dropping the phone in water. That or just iuno dont wanna say priorities not intact... but i mean its not that serious to have a phone on you while washing the car. Aint ike the call from the pres. or us ambassador is bout to call on some urgent ish. 

End of the day im sure most of these things happen from ppl just being so wrapped up in trying to respond to some twitter response..... or cant keep eyes off some instagram pic etc... or something else that isnt that serious... Not paying attention and what not. 

And most phones will stand up to spills etc... but full on submerge in water...im sorry is just silly. Thats just trying to do much, or making something so important when more then likely it isnt. 

Like really aint no one so important they need to talk to them in the tub, or while washing they face etc. Aint no message/text so urgent that it cant wait till after washing dishes.

My IP5 has been acting up for a few months. I forget I had a 2 year squaretrade warranty on it. I'm going to go ahead and use it so I tell myself not to buy an Iphone 6 when it drops.

 

[ScroogeMcBuckz]

Had my phone go in the toilet at work when it vibrated and was going to fall from the TP dispenser and I fumbled it into the toilet. Went in after with no hesitation, didn't miss a beat either. Also, was thrown into a pool with my clothes on at my bros bachelor party, phone survived that too. I'm more worried about cracking my screen than water damage.

well gives a new meaning to having the ish face.

I would hope no one actually goes back to using the phone without alcohol pad sterilization or something. Then again, most people don't wipe down their screens with soap and water regularly so they're already putting a germ pool to their face when they talk.

Has anybody taken advantage of the sleep/wake button replacement plan? Thinking of taking my phone in soon

I opted to go to the apple store and get a direct replacement. Squaretrade said they will reimbursement me when I send them the bill. The detectable is $50.
