| ![]() Any body using the iPhone6 or 6plus? What case are you using to protect it? I am confused between Rearth ring fusion and Spigen Neo series. Any suggestions? |

| ![]() I am using Spigen neo hybrid bumper, super sleek but unfortunately the bumper already has a crack at the silent mode switch area. Reviews say that as the only weak area for these. |

I'm using iPhone 6 with apple silicone case. I had placed an order for Spigen Ultra Hybrid air cushion case. As a suggestion go with the neo series. Ringke design was good on the 5, not so much on the 6 | |

| ![]() Is anyone experiencing reduced battery life in the iphone6 after upgrading to the latest ios 8.1.2 ? I feel a significant drop in battery life. Called Apple India help desk and they adviced I should erase and restore the device, if it yet doesn't improve I need to take it in to the service center. The apple rep over the phone gave me an interesting tip that once the phone battery shows 100% do not plug it out, let it charge for another 2 hours as the battery is only 80% charged when it actually shows 100%. I always plugged my phone out as it reached 100% so there is no overcharging ruining the battery. Is this tip legit? |

Its good, but the rear apple logo is covered. I need it to show off 😜 Quote:
Where did you source it? Does it turn yellow like normal silicon covers? Where did you source the spigen ultra hybrid? I am not able to get a link from Amazon. | |

| ![]() So finally took the plunge and got the iPhone6, 64 GB. I upgraded from a 3 year 10 Months old iphone4. Reason to get the iPhone6. It was a hard decision and more of a heart thing as 62K for a phone was something that I was not ready and equipped to pay. Plus I hardly use my phone except for as a phone and whatsapp. Android Lollipop looked nice and the only Android version that made me feel that I could handle the switch. But Android still feels overwhelming to me in terms of options available and I would like to know my phone and I dont think I have the time available to know all the Android option. iPhone 5S looked nice and mostly upto the task. But since I like to keep phones for longer, iPhone6 with its bigger screen marked a new generation of iPhones and I wanted to start with it. Why 64GB? I would have had the 32GB if that was available and I feel Apple should have instead of removing 32GB model should have made the 32GB as starting point for this phone since this phone comes with some heavy apps like Pages, iMovie etc pre loaded. I am sure 16GB models would not have a lot of usable memory left. So to make the phone more future proof I had to get the higher capacity version. It was really really hard to come around the fact that I was spending 62K on a phone when I dont use it that much as I have a Macbook Pro 15 with Retina which I like to use. But in the end, heart won this battle. Initial Impressions: Its perfect. Its same enough to not make you overwhelmed, but has new things to keep you engaged. Found a lot of things which are new in this phone as compared to my iPhone4 with ios7. Its a joy to hold and use and the screen is gorgeous to say the least. Its blistering fast and the camera is awesome and clicks DSLR grade pics. I am still researching the lot of Location Services options and to be honest this time around I feel even this phone have a lot of option which required me to do some reading to understand. But overall its a work of art and fits my Apple eco system also nicely. The data from older phone was synced to the new phone in 5 mins and was seemless and the new phone became an exact replica of the old phone which was really nice and convenient. Overall its a great phone if you can get your head around the price. But I think the hardware performs consistently well for longer in Apple in devices so it easier to use these phone for a few years helping in getting the worth. Regards Rachit. |

| ![]() Guys I need some help. Can we sync the progress of a game stored in two different apple devices? Both the devices are logged in with the same Apple ID but show different progress each time I log in from a different device. Like in Angry Birds, I am in Level 5 (say) in my IPad and Level 1 in my IPhone. Last edited by Pancham : 18th December 2014 at 11:31. |

| ![]() Upgraded my iPhone 4S to iOS 8.1.2 and it definitely is snappier. While apps do not open any faster (though some of them do), the general system performance include scrolling and hick up which made the phone to stop respond have all been taken care of. Anybody facing performance issues on his/her iPhone 4s on iOS 8 should definitely upgrade. It is totally worth it. |
