    I used the Apple leather case with my 5S and its easily the best I could find for combining very thin with some drop protection and good enough build quality. Have been looking for a thin leather alternative for the 6 since the Apple case is painfully overpriced but haven't had any luck.

    I was so sure on buying an iphone 6+ until i played with a note 4 and it just felt like a much superior phone, especially the camera quality and video playback. I am absolutely torn now. My only regret is buying all my music from itunes, how can i transfer that over if i do decide to get the note 4. Ugh...

    Or does anyone suggest a better iphablet out there that's even better than the note 4?

    The AMOLED screen blows away anything else out there.

    Please explain what that is and why it blows everything out?

    You can google it but basically the screen is not an LCD like other phones. It is beautiful, able to display a much wider gamut of colors and be color accurate.

    If you compared it side by side with an iPhone or something the difference is obvious. I have a Nexus 5 and when I fire up even my old Note 2 the screen is spectacular. Love those screens.

    This is true. The AMOLED screen on my old Samsung Galaxy Epic that I use as an alarm clock/music player STILL looks better and more vibrant than most phones today.

    For those that are transitioning from an old iPhone to a new one, what's the best way to transfer your data(pictures, apps..etc) from one phone to the other?

    Is the iTunes back up the easiest way to do it?

    I found it easiest. I backed up to iTunes/computer instead of the cloud, then restored it from there. Kept all my pictures/texts/etc. I'm sure it works the same on the cloud, but I just personally found it easier to do it that way.

    Still waiting on my Plus to be shipped. Ordered on 9/29, estimated ship date 11/14. Smh, hoping for a little luck and to get it considerably earlier.

    Part of me was thinking that but I wanted to see what phones he had before for comparison. I'm sure he's had a few androids in there somewhere. :)

    AMOLED doesn't mean it's the best. While it does look more colorful, the over saturation is not a good thing.
