iPhone 7 or iPhone 8

I have a 6 Plus right now that I'll be eligible to trade in come February but I think if I can I'll just wait. If my 6 plus lasts until the 8 comes out I think I'm going to wait until then. Anyone else going to wait for the iPhone 8?

It is arguably worse because of the missing headphone jack. The 8 is supposed to be a significant redesign.

That's why I'm thinking unless something happens to my current phone I'll wait.

But my 4se was too antique and freezing up - decided I couldn't wait. There will always be a better update.

By the time I was able to get one my BlackBerry was on its last legs, and I wasn't going to wait for the S to come out. I had got the Storm figuring it would do for a couple years until the AT&T exclusivity ran out. (Their coverage still isn't all that great here in Iowa so that's why I didn't go for an iPhone when it first came out).

The 4 was quite a solid iPhone. I still miss it sometimes.

Unless something happens to my current 6 plus I'm going to sit out the 7 and wait for the 8 to be released.

Hi, I am using iPhone 6 and I would like to wait until this September for iPhone 8. It is a matter of several months. I think iPhone 8 would give us a big surprise with so many new features. To be honest, I can't wait any longer to meet September. I know changing phone will need a lot of work. You get the new phone, you will need to set up iPhone 8, right? So I have studied sometime how to do this. We just need a good iPhone 8 file manager app and we can one-click moving from old iPhone to the new iPhone. I've tried several app and decided to pick up one great app. You may think using iTunes is OK, but for me, it's not enough because I have some unpurchased music and videos on my iPhone 6.
