Unless the 7 starts at 32GB ! I would pay the $100 for a 32GB 7 over a 16GB 6S.
Got a tip for us?

Right now i can get the 64GB 6S plus for 830euros from my country.
By mid August, ill be making a trip to the USA and i have an HTC HD that is very slow and old, so i wanted the iPhone to have something new... you know. So that is my main concern, get the 6Splus before the trip, or after?

I think the Sony phones are awesome. The Z3 compact I had lasted more than a week on a charge the way I use my phone compared to three days for my SE. I'd wait for the iPhone 7. More efficient processor if it includes the A10. Maybe a better image sensor. If not, then Apple will fall way behind the other phones. Dxomark website shows camera evaluations if camera stuff is important to you.
The camera will be better for sure.
If consumers are lucky, the 6SE will be comparable to the Samsung Galaxy 7. However, I expect Samsung and Android devices in general to always be at least a few steps ahead of Apple when it comes to their camera. Perhaps 2017 will be different.
Yeah, going from 6 to 7 I would expect the same thing, a new camera. Also according to dxomark, Apple phones are not even close to the top any longer. I hope the whole series is better rather than just the dual-camera version.

So Apple is forced to make 7 better. The Sony phones always had a good camera as does Samsung. Some do not trust dxomark but I don't think the slight differences between 88 and 84 is something you can easily, visually notice. The Sony X line is quite good camera wise and is top of the heap. I like their image viewing software too. Very intuitive.

What would be a good price to pay for a 6s plus 64gb right now(factory sealed)?Taking into account the 7 coming out soon. Don't have much interest to get the 7 from rumors and don't need the latest but curious what a good price for it would be in case I run by one to buy
Sealed would be $850 outright. On contract you can find a deal that gives you $200 off.
Rumor is the mechanical home button will be replaced with just cap touch... it is worth it to me just for that. I hate mechanical buttons 
Apple will take that into consideration and eliminate the 16GB model for the U.S. product list offering. Apple could just replace the 16 with a 32GB, the difference is only around $1 for Apple per unit since they buy in quantities of 300 million units each time they place an order for flash!
My dad has my old 6 he wants a 4.7 inch 64 Gb and I have a 6s plus I want a iPhone 7 4.7 inch 128 Gb will order both on preorder date 3 am est
You mean they will drop the 16 GB models of the 6s and replace them with 32 GB when the 7 comes out? Then I will 110% buy the 6s Plus over the 7.
I'm back to considering the 6s Plus again. I really am hesitant about the whole headphone jack removal thing ever since I picked up some nicer headphones a month ago. Having to deal with a stupid $30 dongle would really irritate me, especially on top of the already expensive iPhone.
Here's my issue. My contract is up this month sometime. Right now my carrier---local carrier but uses Verizon towers out of the area---has a deal where all smartphones are 50% for this month as it is back to school time...we start early. Anyway a 6s with 64 GB is $124.99 with 2 yr contract. My current phone is a 5s. I'd like water proof but I know the 7 will be expensive and this is a good deal.
I would take that offer without a doubt. That is a great deal. I would not recommend the 7 to anyone. 2017/Anniversary iPhone is the one to buy.
At this point the only way they make a better camera is to drop the obsession with thinness. Which limits the lens and sensor size they can use. But they have maxed out on what they can do right now. Any improvements are marginal until something happens in imaging/camera world and that Apple is good in this field but not exactly astride the rest. They are all around the same place. And apple has nothing on lens tech basically.

I had an iPhone 6 and I was tired of the terrible FaceTime (selfie) camera and I debated getting the iPhone 6S or waiting for the 7. Since the iPhone 8 will be a total redesign, I decided to just get the iPhone 6S because AT&T had a buy one get one free promo running and that was enticing.
I will be upgrading to the iPhone 8, though, next year. Also, I was able to sell the iPhone 6 for $400 so it was a good deal.

The iPhone 6s is a fantastic phone. However I've never owned another iPhone before only two Samsun Android phones and I won't be going back.
#1. Problem is that you can't show off the iPhone 7 it looks exactly like the 6s unless your up close.
#2. Too many people know the iPhone Pro with OLED display made by Samsung will be here in 13 months or so
#3. Apple will be releasing a exclusive limited number of 10 Year Anniversary iPhone Pros with Luxury packaging, and which can only be purchased in store by showing you have an Original iPhone which is why the market has dried up and it's impossible to purchase an original iPhone.
