Is it common/normal for the phone to shut off due to low battery at anything other than 0%.

Other day said I had 9% then shut off due to low battery. Then earlier today had 5 or so % then shut off.

Iphone 6.

The battery percentage reported is just an estimate, so it very well may have run out of juice despite the discrepancy. Probably nothing wrong with the battery/phone.

Yeah. One more question. If this phone is an on contract phone through Verizon do I go to Verizon for help or Apple Store? Always see people talking about going to the Apple store on here but never sure if it's people that bought their phone outright. Used to Android where I always had to go to my carrier store by default.

Always go to the apple store.

Well I'm another 6s+ user jumping on the SE love bandwagon. Played with one in the Apple store, and I had far fewer typos on it than on the phablet :confused: but maybe it's because of my Donald Trump-sized hands. I have no issues with the smaller screen and it's so drat light and pocketable! Don't care about the slower touch ID, don't care about the lack of 3d-touch-whatever-it's-called.

You dudes who prefer the SE have small hands right? I have a 6 right now and am planning on ugprading to a 7+ next. I am tall and have long fingers (4" wide palm, 5" with thumb, 10" span from thumb to pinky). Any tall people with big hands prefer the SE?

I'm 6'2" with huge hands and I love the smaller form factor. I don't want to gently caress around with it bugging me in my (front) pocket when I sit down, I will never want to 2-hand a phone, and I play actual games on a PC so I don't really delve too far into the lovely IAP wastelands of iOS gaming. I also have an iPad for the few decent iOS games. The fact that the SE is cheaper just sweetens the pot for me.

If you use it once, you want the 6S one. It's the difference between a photo that's barely usable for anything and a nice shot.

We took some vacation photos on my 6 instead of my wife's 6S and its immediately obvious.

My coworker was very proud of taking selfies with the back camera "out of principle". I'm not a vapid oval office so I'm not proud of the fact that I never take selfies but I'll tell you all here, now.

I have tiny bitch-rear end circus freak hands, but my dad has huge hands and he prefers small phones.

My mom, on the other hand (pun intended) has tiny hands and she's nuts about her 6s+.

Had no issues using a 6S+ but I'm loving the SE, it is definitely a breath of fresh air after using large phones for the past couple of years. It's great to have options since everyone uses their phones in different ways, and it's just awesome to not have to sacrifice performance to get this form factor like every other smaller phone on the market nowadays.

Apple replaced my broken screen for free because it had the off-centre Facetime Camera problem that I never got around to getting replaced (because who the gently caress uses the front facing camera for anything)

They also mentioned that the aluminium is very soft and gave me a free silicone case as the small dent was preventing the screen from sitting flush along the top edge.

I asked for a saddle brown leather one but they just laughed and said 'who the gently caress wants such a lovely looking case?'

Tried the SE while in the store while I waited. Its just too small after owning a 6, but fast as gently caress.

A++ would drop phone again.

Or, it was predicted years ago that the 6(+) form factor was trash produced to sway Android idiots to team Apple, and now that all the idiots are here Apple can concentrate on making phones that are nice to use rather than nice to be seen with.
