I was about to pre order. Then decided against it. Think this round is going to the note 7. Will see what the iphone 8 holds
Don't forget to get a fire extinguisher with it
interestingly, you can hold the iPhone 7 and the iPhone 8. But you cant hold the Note, because we cant hold fire.

Though not yet confirmed by Apple, it looks like Oct. 21 is the day the iPhone 7 arrives in South Korea, according to a “high-ranking official for a mobile network provider.”
Earlier this month, it was reported that Apple was looking for a location for its first retail store in South Korea. One possible location is across the street from Samsung’s headquarters in Seoul.
This news comes as Samsung continues to deal with problems with its flagship Galaxy Note 7, which has been recalled over battery safety issues.

Media bull****.
I am actually still on the fence. The note 7 is just so insanely pretty. Plus ios has been starting to piss me off. Going back to android will be tough since i have the watch and a macbook and two ipads.
I just dont know. I am conflicted.
Personally if it was me, I wouldn't even consider going to Android, well actually I'm in the same position since I have a iPhone, iMac and will soon also be getting a MacBook, but luckally I'm not even considering a Android phone.
Once you are in the Apple ecosystem, everything is just so smooth, easy and seamless. Yes to get a Android phone to play with your other Apple devices is doable, some might even call it pretty easy, but nothing will ever be as easy as entering your Apple ID, sitting back and watching it all happen.
+1 on this. I loved my Samsung S7 but Android just cannot compete with iOS's ability to make life easier, seamless and efficient for you across all Apple devices.
Curious what this means though, you got examples of this?
And for the record I have iPhones, Macbooks, Apple TVs, iPads, etc. I don't have any more or any less issues getting other devices (Android or WinMobile) to integrate and do what I want it to do. So genuinely curious what you could do on IOS that you couldn't do on other?

He is probably speaking about handoff and sharing notes etc across devices. I use handoff quite a bit but I would want to handoff to my MacBook for when someone enters and I would want to have the rest of the conversation over speaker as I think the speaker is better over the MacBook. But I don't think I would pick a phone just for that. Maybe it might tip it over for me if I feel that the phones suits my needs similarly.
Yeah pretty sure was speaking about handoff. Handoff includes documents. I use handoff with notes app which works great.
Also airdrop - personally use this of daily basis. Not 100% reliable but works fine.
Remote - nice to control iTunes. Many other apps like this, VLC remote can do this. Spotify can also control on there app. Pretty sure this is the same on Android side as well.
Airplay as well - very easy to use and love it. Chromecast is similar I would say. - but need dedicated hardware as far as I know to make use of this.
For me, iOS just works. Although seeing frame drops on 10.1 which is really bothering me. I was on Android for 7months last year and couldn't stand the bugs and app crashes.

Universa copying is also pretty great with the new os. It is so awesome to copy something on the mac and then to paste it on my phone
