I was informed that I can "upgrade" my current 6C for a 2020 model(a model #, not the year  ) to get better signal strength  . Any of you familiar with this model ? The carrier is Verizon BTW  . Thanks

Wife has a 6+, I have a 7+, currently with Verizon, had AT&T for decades, but with the DirecTV merger both went down the crapper so switched to Dish, and Verizon. ------------- I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science. |

if you're not having any problems, do NOT 'upgrade'. It's a great con by them to get more coins out of YOUR piggybank.... ------------- 3 D-14s,A-C forklift, B-112 Kubota BX23S lil' TOOT( The Other Orange Tractor) Never burn your bridges, unless you can walk on water |

Sadly, it was a combo of poor signal, battery life and slow downloads/refreshing. Ended up with an Iphone 11 and am pleasantly surprised with it so far-EXCELLENT battery life and (I thought I would miss it) NO "home button to keep "clicking" to clear the task

Currently Iphone 6S with a replaced battery on ATT, still decent service and so long as close apps when finish with them battery life remains good. Better Cell tower locations here even as terrain screws with reception(three bars at home, drops service at barn less than 200' lower elevation in valley and 1/4 mile down road). Had Direct TV on the service, expense got too much to have wife sitting on her rump non stop for hours off from work. Whining of gaining weight, needed to go on diet does not set well with me when do not move except to change channels(pickup remote, finger switches put remote down), stands for periods of time at work setting up automated machines, sits the rest of work time awaiting completion alarms, kind of like "Doing Laundry" when nothing else is done awaiting completion alarm watching TV.

| I run an IPhone 6S+. Had the battery changed a year and a half ago. I don’t plan on changing anytime soon. |

| Bought 5 iPhone 6 phones on the same day in 2015! Say what you will about teenage girls, my daughter's was the last to get replaced a month ago. Hers got a battery replace 1 1/2 years ago, and it helped, but still wasn't right, would instantly die at 20% sometimes. Pretty much a needed evil at a University these days. Mine was the second to the last to go, mine crapped out unexplainably last fall, would not get signal. Finally determined to be an issue in the workmanship of the phone itself, and I got a free phone after 4 1/2 years because it was a true issue with the phone, that amazed me! |

Our iphone 5 wasnt a battery problem---it was the phone itself died and verizion or apple refused to do anything about it so we dumped both of them---no more verizion and no more apple--EVER !! ------------- http://machinebuildersnetwork.com/ |
