I soon have to buy a new (smart)phone. Looks like this might just be the straw that pushes me over to iPhone.

  I'd buy the new iphones in a heartbeat but I simply cannot spend that kind of money and put up with weird compromises like no haedphone jack or no fingerprint reader. I wish Samsung would have an option to run tizen on its flagships.

    > I simply cannot spend that kind of money and put up with weird compromises like no haedphone jack or no fingerprint reader That category no longer applies solely to apple. Google's flagship phone [0] is just as expensive as Apple's, has no headphone jack and no fingerprint reader. [0] https://store.google.com/product/pixel_2 https://store.google.com/product/pixel_2

      Pixel 2 has a fingerprint reader. Although it has it on the back. However, the phone looks very cheap and dated. I'd be willing to get an iPhone over that :P

        The iPhone 8 looks quite dated as well, though.

    Buy a new 6S then. Apple doesn't immediately abandon their phones, so there's no need to buy the newest out of habit.

      I've seen old Apple devices get really slow and sluggish as they get upgraded to new software versions. But you're right, it's better to get a 6s instead of a 7. At least you get full functionality.
