iPhone 6 isn't just bigger — it's better in every way. Larger yet thinner. More powerful, yet power efficient. It's a new generation of iPhone.

I had doubts about Tim Cook's veracity at first. After all, as CEO of Apple, he is the first line of advertising for their products, so he HAS to sell them. I've had every iPhone since #1 except 5S and 5C. It was a real leap from 5 to 6 which I'm very glad I took. I might have liked the Plus more, but I doubt it. The 6 is just big enough. iOS 8.0 is just the icing on the cake. All the new features are (in fact) intimidating. If I had one complaint it would be that NFC is only going to be available for iPay for now. Would love to use NFC for my new Jabra Pulse head set.

When I got my phone (as most end users do) I looked for a way to protect it from scratches and mars. I looked at several products but the Zagg invisibleSHIELD Glass screen protector was what I decided on. Unlike Zagg's lower quality protectors that are flimsy and a real pain to put on, this protector is a beefier quality plastic and much easier to put on. You still have to try to make your environment as dust free as possible, but once done it looks nice and does exactly what it is advertised to do, no more, no less.

Not sure how well this case will protect the IPhone 6 under heavy use, but it is well made and stylish. It fits well with my needs but I wouldn't keep my Credit Cards with the phone.

This router was the easiest router I've ever set up. Plug it in, connect to the internet and a PC/Mac and run the software. Done! Log back in to set security, mac filtering, SID broadcasting (or not). All very simple.

What's great about it: Style
What's not so great: The APP
The Misfit is a very stylish tracker. It's durable enough to have with stood being washed in my clothes washer and is still working perfectly. The App needs lots of work. Misfit should look at the Jawbone and Fitbit apps as examples of how to support fitness tracking.
This product has... Attractive design, Right size, Useful features, Quick reading, Easy to wear, Easy to read, room for improvement in the app.

What's great about it: The lighted display, the automatic interface with the heart rate monitor.
What's not so great: The app and the price.
Good idea gone mediocre! The tracking is good, but the app is not as good as it should be. The price isn't justified. Should be $40 - $50 less.

What's great about it: Portability is great.
What's not so great: Sound in an average ear.
These BT stereo ear phones are a good idea. You have to have a perfect fit to get bass at all. My ears are not a perfect fit. I've tried all 3 sizes of the buds. A custom fit set of buds would be great if priced right. These have a very tinny sound without a good seal, but when you get it they sound pretty good.
This product has... Fall out of ears easily, Poor fit, good when you're sitting still.

band how do u shorten it ? My wrist is small. Do u cut it or what?

Once you pop out the pin, you have to cut it. I recommend removing the pins from both sides so you can evenly shorten the band to your size. Maybe use a strip of paper set to your wrist size for accuracy.

Trade in

I have At& T and I am up for an upgrade. Can I trade in my iPhone 4 32gb toward a new iPhone 6 64gb with a 2 yr contract? how much will be the difference?

Thanks, Ed
Yes you can. Not sure of the amount, but if you trade your old iPhone in first then use the amount to offset the cost it should be less expensive. Check with BestBuy to see what they will give you for your iPhone 4. I got $249 for my iPhone 5 64gig.
