Ok. I did it. I ordered an iPhone 7 Plus 256GB in Gold this morning. I should have it by Friday.

I am holding out for the next model.  Hopefully it will support HPUE.  I did spend the gift card from the raffle last month for a new iPad Pro for my wife.  She dropped her last iPad and shattered the screen but it was having other issues before then.  I also invested in a new Lifeproof Nuud case for it.  Let us hope it survives.

The only reason I did upgrade is because I wanted out of my Lease. HPUE won't affect me too much because I have usable B26 at home when I'm not using Wifi. When B41 finally launches I'll be a happy camper though.

I understand.  I hope this weekend my wife and I can go to the Sprint store in town and see if we can reduce our current spend for the current services from Sprint.  I believe we can save approximately 80 to 100 dollars a month.  Will just have to ask and see.

Hopefully you will be able to save. I'm dropping back to Framily with 3GB data so my bill doesn't go up much for upgrading.

I don't know why I waited so long to get the 7 Plus. I love this phone!

I've been thinking of switching from my Nexus 6 to the iPhone 7 plus. I'll probably wait and see if the 7s plus has AMOLED display this year.

Why wait just for that?  LCD on 7/7+ is pretty much top notch (accuracy, brightness, wide color gamut), easily on par with SAMSUNG AMOLED.  Remember, not all AMOLED (and LCDs) are created equal...even when come from same manufacturer.

If you are in the BETA program, then you will notice pretty damn good Portrait mode!  Compared to normal (non-beta) iOS software, the Portrait mode in latest beta software is significantly better!  :tu:

That's the biggest thing other than HPUE

I had this app too but then i found that Apple camera app is pretty good at determining when to use and not to use telephoto lens.  When it would not use it even when zooming, it is because using the actual telephoto lens in that situation looks like crap.  

 

I do like the Portrait mode...i have gotten pretty darn good photos out of it!

Not sure...but i have seen significant improvement in Portrait mode...the border is much cleaner now vs. before when it was first released.

If so, and we're only 6 mos away from iPhone 8/Edition, then i would wait...no need to jump now.

 

Hopefully HPUE will be a part of the next model.  Apple has known about HPUE since December.  We will just have to wait and see.

It would have look much better if the front was black.

Yeah, I don't get why Apple can't make the fronts of the iPhones the same color as the backs.

 

Or is that just their "style".  To have the front either white or black.

    • Has anyone checked Verizon n77 in areas with more than 100MHZ active? This spectrum has been fully available since August of last year.  Of course they are not typically using SA.
    • I updated my other s21 ultra factory unlocked to the latest firmware... It behaves like the S24 Ultra n38 or n41 depending on 80 or 100MHz or their nr- arfcn.
    • I see everything correct. The two ARFCN's you mentioned earlier and they idenitify as n-41.  using 4.832b SCP. Only using one TM SIM.
    • I posted this in the Nebraska Premier thread last week, but just wanted to share in this thread the progress that T-Mobile has made in filling in the great coverage gap known as Nebraska. Between late last year and this year, they have added 28 new expansion sites filling in the coverage hole, plus 11 Sprint site conversions in eastern Nebraska and far western Iowa. Notably, in the last month n41 coverage was added on over a dozen expansion sites in western Nebraska that were added to the network last year. For comparison, here is the very first map that I created in October of 2022 after we noted expansion sites outside of Sprint conversion in Lincoln and Omaha. It doesn't show any western parts of the state, but just know there was nothing besides roaming coverage and a little B12 coverage leaking down from South Dakota to the west of Valentine, NE.
    • Sent a copy of my DB in an e-mail just now.  Couldn't leave the house today but can hopefully get a screenshot when I'm out on another cell site tomorrow.
