Should I upgrade my iPhone?

Posted by Chris on June 1st, 2017

  When new iPhones are introduced, one of the toughest decisions to make is whether or not to upgrade to the latest and the greatest. If money is no object, it won't matter. If you're on a plan that allows for early or yearly upgrades, it won't matter much either. Otherwise, it comes down to an unpractical decision. iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus were released in September 2015. The antenna lines are much more prominent on the back, there's no black or jet black color option, the Home button is still mechanical, and the wireless support isn't quite as fast or broad. Otherwise, it still packs a really good punch — and it still has a 3.5mm headphone jack. When you are familiar with the features or performances, you may consider a question. Should you upgrade your iPhone?

  Of course the biggest difference between the two new iPhones are in the display department. The iPhone 6s features a 4.7-inch display with a 1334x750-pixel resolution at 326 ppi and the iPhone 6s plus features a 5.5-inch display with a 1920x1080-pixel resolution at 401 ppi. Technically speaking, the iPhone 6s Plus’ display is superior on the resolution front. Not only does it have more pixels, it’s got a higher pixel per inch (ppi) density at 401ppi versus the iPhone 6s’ 326ppi. That being said, the smaller iPhone 6s actually has a slightly better contrast ratio of 1400:1 compared to the iPhone 6s Plus’ 1300:1. That means the smaller iPhone’s display can display just a bit more difference between the brightest whites and the darkest blacks. As for the design, both feature aluminum bodies with rounded corners and while their physical length and height dimensions are of course different (due to screen size) the smaller iPhone 6s wins on thinness being just 7.1mm thick versus the iPhone 6s Plus' 7.3mm thickness. The iPhone 6s is also noticeable lighter than the iPhone 6s Plus.

  Here is another reasonable choice. That is refurbished iPhone 6s plus. A refurbished iPhone comes from those returned faulty and sold old faulty or just old, these faulty or just old phones will get repaired, reconditioned, inspected and then resold to those who need one. All the work down is to make sure that it works fully and looks like a new one. So you can count on this product because there is no company that would sell you a product that didn’t work which would be bad business. Even though they look like new, but they cannot be sold as new, so there is discount and the extent depends on the quality of the product and where you get it.

  Why I suggest you don’t upgrade the iPhone 6s plus? The most good news or benefit about buying a refurbished iPhone is the simple fact that these devices will be significantly cheaper than a new one. Like all used merchandises, retailers entice shoppers to purchase these units by lowering prices by a good degree. In most of cases, you can save hundreds of dollars by buying a refurbished model instead of a new one. Many times these models will be much older. And this should be a good way for you to have a relative old model too. Those two kinds of iPhones have no big distinctions. Therefore, you needn’t pay a huge amount of money to buy a new one.

  However, buying a refurbished iPhone through a third party be the more common way. Most of this item from this channel would be those sold old iPhone, but also there are some returned faulty ones. All these product will go through the same process and share the same result with the item from the manufacture renewed which is to make sure it work well. But this product is incomparable with the previous one and that is why it can offer such a big discount. In addition, you can get all the models through a third party retailer. In the follow, there are two good places for you to get a good refurbished iPhone.

  In analysis, the minor differences between them cannot cost us a lot of money. If you want to own an iPhone, then you probably need to sign a contract with the specific network carrier and that will limit the choices you can have with the network service. And this can be worse if you travel a lot with the device because that will generate more roaming date fee for you. If you buying an unlocked refurbished iPhone 6 plus will easily solve this problem for. If you go to another country, you can just buy some pre-paid card that will be compatible with your phone then you are good to go. This second-hand iPhone is your first step to have a new intelligent world.
