Except that "Nvme storage in the 6s instead of mmc"

Nothing is even worth looking.

6p with Nvme storage would be a lovely phone.

I am really fond of Huawei's design language.
Honor 5x for example selling @ $199 is an absolute beauty of design.

All the specs of Honor 7 replacing kirin with Snapdragon and that camera.

Most sophisticated design language by Huawei.
Hats off!

Not to mention the exclusion of microSD card slot (16GB :rofl: only for 650$, most phones have that much for one-sixth of the price) , non-removable batteries.

This is the solution for apple users :

Having mentioned that what happened to the sleek slim design of iphone if you have to use a device like that ? How well does it go with iphone's design standard. Apple only cares about their shameless profit but not user friendliness anymore. It's a shame they want to make money by taking all unethical ways by limiting / changing their HW design to sell their exclusive iFail only compatible accessories.

again the profit thing. What is the source? Where has Apple said they care about profits more than user friendliness? Or which specific authority has made that allegation and not some randoms on forums?
Here is Jony Ive explaining why going for profit didn't work for the company, and how the company got turned around and started making profits when they just focused on making the most thought through products
Jonathan Ive: Apple's goal isn't to make money (Wired UK)
"We are really pleased with our revenues but our goal isn't to make money. It sounds a little flippant, but it's the truth. Our goal and what makes us excited is to make great products. If we are successful people will like them and if we are operationally competent, we will make money," he said.

PS tear-downs don't take into consideration the cost of R&D, and marketing and promotion, all of which add to the cost of a device

^ I'm pretty sure increasing the storage to 32GB of base model shouldn't be a problem for any OEM in that budget. Seriously, there are phones which support upto 2TB of expandable storage through microSD card even though the cards aren't economical.

Apple acknowledges issue with iPhone 6s battery percentage indicator

There seems to be an issue with the battery indicator on the iPhone 6s and the iPhone 6s Plus, which prevents the battery indicator from reducing proportionately with the actual charge of the battery, thereby suggesting you have more power left than you actually do.


Apple is aware of the problem and has suggested a simple fix for it. It seems the issue is caused by the device time settings, so moving between timezones causes the battery meter to malfunction. The fix is to either restart the phone or check if the clock is set to update automatically through the settings.


A more permanent fix should be rolled out in the next iOS update.

Really? :rofl:
