Decision was fast as my One Plus 3 fell and broke and I found iPhone 6 cheaper than One Plus 3T with the exchange value on cashify, got it from Flipkart ! Question below:
1. Bluetooth is unpredictable. I have paired my BMW, Bose headphones and Garmin band. Detecting a connection is a hassle. If I am in the car with my band on, it will not connect to the car whatever I do. Did you find a similar issue or way around it ? Today I unpaired the band and it connected to the car ! But the issue is, band is mostly on the wrist and it's synced to the phone everyday or after a run or walk !
2. Although I did the contact transfer through Google contacts, many numbers are lost in the process.
3. Edges of the phone (brush aluminium area) are very fragile to scratches and marks. Although I have a leather case, there are already few scratch marks on top. Any recommendations on a good quality leather case ?
I had my entire 8 months inputs on Fuelio and did a back up to cloud and dropbox before moving to iPhone 6 but unfortunately, there is no Fuelio in the apple world. I am using Jerrycan now, but permanently lost all the 8 months data just like that.
Is it worth moving to the 7 ? Screen and body size are same for 6 and 7 right ? Whats the time taken for Paytm delivery ? I bought my MacBook Air through them, it took more than 7 days for delivery but the cash back was close to 9k, which was worth the wait ! |
Let me try and take your queries one by one;
Apple to me, is way better than Android. There's a joke. Android guys are the doers. iPhone guys tell them what to do and when!
Yes iPhone has some awesome deals right now via PayTm. Ive bought three iPhones in the last 3 days on PayTm. Two are delivered, mine and my Dad's. My Wife's is expected by tomorrow or day after. Worth the price paid for sure. No trouble with PAyTM delivery experience so far in my case.
My Bluetooth so far has been good in my iPhone 4S, my iPhone 6 and now the iPhone 7 in the home environment. I do not use it in my car because my Yeti doesn't have Bluetooth sync or car play.
I have never used Google to transfer my contacts, preferring to restore from backup on my 5 year old MacBook Air or iCloud.
For my iPhone 6 and my wife's iPhone 6, we bought something called MTT Golf fit case from Amazon - at 699 each these seemed more expensive than the normal cases but are very well worth it because of the all round protection.
For the iPhone 7's I have just ordered a couple of soft silicone cases which are expected from Amazon in a day or two.
Yes, the iPhone 7 is of exactly the same dimensions as the iPhone 6 but the phone itself is far superior in many ways. I like what I bought for sure. Especially because I got the 256GB versions for me and my wife.
My experience will all the stuff I bought on PayTm has been good in terms of delivery - including the car tyres that I bought for the Yeti and the Gypsy. Moreover the prices were way better than anywhere else in the market because of their cash backs.
I am an 'end-of-product-lifecycle" kind of guy when it comes to iPhones because of the sheer value of the deals one is able to get! I believe I shall continue in this manner - Ive never felt the need to be the "first chap off the block" with the new iPhones that get released, preferring instead to maximise my bang for the buck...
Cheers and good luck in your decision!
