Looks like I forgot to add the final clip in the video, tit!!! Anyway, in a nutshell I said... "this phone is great, can't wait to try out the camera more, I'll update you guys in the Vlog.. and thanks for watching! "
Hey I don't this anyone pointed this out there is an amazing solution to the vibrate issue you're having which is.... the Apple Watch when you get a phone call you'll certainly feel that vibration on your arm even if you're away from your phone you can still answer call from the watch. I have an iPhone X and I always leave my mute switch on.Also get yourself an EP-PG950 from Samsung it's a nice wireless charging pad, and from now on try to charge the phone from 40-80% no higher no lower and the battery will last you longer I bought mine in December and it's still 100% and getting better and better with the new iOS upgrades. Also try not to use the 29W charger too often (if you have one) except when really needed as fast charging also degrades the battery.
There was a fault in a batch of 6/6+ cameras that made the pictures look blurry etc, as my sister had the same problem. all she had to do was book it in for a genius bar appointment, and she got it replaced free of charge with a fully functioning one. Also the battery can also be replaced for £29 i believe via another appointment at the genius bar
Nice, I do love the red! I'm still rocking my iPhone 6S 64GB. I just replaced the battery on it after 700 cycles on the original battery and now it feels like a new phone!
I was rocking the 5s. Broke it. Rocked the 6 for a little while. Loved it. However the battery went bad and the screen went bad. So my mum upgraded me 3 weeks ago to the iPhone SE. I love it. Amazing phone.
Your battery issue is nothing to do with the battery, it is a fault with iOS 11.3 that Apple has not come clean on, because they introduced iOS 11.3 which removed the fixed throttling and my 6S does The exact same as your iPhone 6 now despite the battery health being fine, and the phones only a year and a half old. Apple is using updates to rig battery life still. But an upgrades an upgrade, why didn’t you get the iPhone X.
The red makes that phone look really good. Not sure if I should get an 8 or X in the beginning of June. Only difference is that the down payment will be a little more, but monthly payments will be the same for either phone.
I suppose it depends on how well you like notches and whether you want to learn a new set of gestures, and whether you want to pay extra for that privilege :D
So true. That's also why I'm waiting until after WWDC in case the SE2 or whatever Apple will call it has what I want. If they drop 3D Touch, than I'm gonna gave to get an 8 or X.
My iPhone 6 in silver did that, sadly the phone battery could no longer hold a charge soon after with it dying after about 10 minutes. Soon upgraded to the SE however, now I’m just planning to buy an XR sometime this year.
I threw a $7 eBay battery in my daughters 6s so I could try to use it when she got the iPhoneX and all of the little issues she was having disappeared. Phone has been back to rock solid the last 6 months or so.
You should have tried a couple battery calibrations on the 6 but likely it's just dead after all the years. And Yup the 8 got heavier again, kinda noticable for me because I jumped from a 5S and I still didn't get used to it after a couple months. I can relate to the vibration thing.
I had that battery problem for my iPhone 6, I hard reset it and ever since battery has been a lot better! Just to say in case you were planning on reusing the old iPhone or giving it to someone
That sounds like the battery has degraded in the iPhone 6 and needs replacing. Hopefully if you’ve got the iPhone 8 directly from Apple, if you go into settings, battery, battery health, then hopefully it’s on 100% maximum capacity.
Had mine for a week now in red! Coming from my S7 to iPhone has been a nice transition. Haven’t had a iPhone since the 3GS so much has changed! Pretty cool how it links to my Mac etc. Enjoy
first? and yeah i got an iPhone 6 almost 3 years ago, but smashed it, so the one I currently use has been with me for about 21 months... still works decently well with heavy use... I plan to switch away from the Apple ecosystem though.
the other day I had my 7 in my bookbag and i sent a message to it to see if it was still there and then my whole bookbag vibrated so i think its more powerful with a otterbox on it cause i would have my 7 on the desk with no case on and i cant tell if the home button works, but when the case is on i can feel it working
I wonder if the iPhone 6 had an aftermarket battery fitted by the refurb seller? Haven't seen an iPhone battery fail in that way, my old iPhone 6 still had a very good battery when I sold it a few months ago and it sounds like it probably had a lot more use. I wish they'd have the red devices available at launch as I'd have probably bought one. That headphone adapter is actually surprisingly durable; at least as durable as it is annoying. The iPhone 8 has remarkably good audio performance too via said adapter into a decent pair of headphones.
i still have my iPhone 7 Plus Product Red edition :) I don't see any point in upgrading to the 8 and i'm not a fan of the X as they removed the Thumb Print Scanner which i like. :(
I think I’m gonna wait for an SE 2 or something like that, I’m just not happy with the 6, 7, 8 nor X. Same goes for the newest MacBook Pros, I have the Early 2015 and I just can’t bring myself to upgrade. It also works very well so I don’t feel the need to, I guess. I just really have to fix the screen, it’s broken. But I’m glad you like your new phone! One thing I’m sure of, if I didn’t have a phone with a headphone jack, I’d definitely switch to wireless earphones.
Regarding the vibration an alternate option could be something like a Fitbit, I have a flex2 which vibrates on my wrist when I get a phone call or text. It’s a secondary function of the flex 2 but one I really miss if I don’t have my Fitbit on.
Whilst it’s good that Apple give money on the product red scheme, they are quite tight, the donation is 10% of the proceeds (profits) from each sale, which is actually not a huge amount. They churn these phones out at almost no cost. I’m a police officer in the UK and spoke with 3 security guards in a certain Apple store about 2 years ago, the security guards were told by the Apple store manager if anyone attempts to shoplift from that store NOT to try and stop them, as Apple make the devices for such little cost they won’t be losing much at all. The guards were hired to act as a visible deterrent. When it shows how little it costs to manufacture you’d think they’d give more than just 10% of the profits (which of course is less than the sale price).
OMG! What a coincidence I was thinking of upgrading my 6 with Wi-Fi problems and battery like yours to an 8. But three didn’t give me a good deal from my sim only... I found one on mobiles.co.uk with 16gb of data on Vodafone! But might wait until September . Anyways you deserve it looking forward to more videos ☺️
I got a 6 on a contact 2 years ago(which I just came off of in march) and it’s showing it’s age and I’d like to get a new one, but I’d have to buy outright from Apple or whomever because I have a good plan I can’t get anymore and I’d lose if I did a upgrade from my carrier so it’s a lot of money upfront..... plus I’m not really jazzed to buy the same phone design with slight upgraded internals..... (I’d love to get an iPhone X but it would be 1319 Canadian dollars with out tax.....yeah......)
feel like selling my xr for this I already had a space grey 8 but red looks so better so I thought may as well just get a new red phone if I'm getting a new phone but it's not as thin or as small as I'd like it to be but I do enjoy having more screen hmm
Timo Neumann you should check out the Android's cameras, like the s9 the camera is insane. Personally my mom's 7 looks like garbage compared to my v20, which was shocking because that camera on the 7 was insane when I saw it, it was like having night vision in the dark, I recently bought the v20 when the price went half and it blows the 7 out of the water.
Hey TOM, i thought its a notification for Networking Video. But it has been ages .... waiting & waiting.... i thought you are about to close channel. also i noticed you even don't like to reply most of the times.
Close channel?!? Chill dude! I've been here too long to quit now. Good things come to those who wait my friend. It'll be worth the wait. I work very hard and have a family with 2 young children. Drilling holes through my walls isn't something I can do at the drop of a hat. When I'm not in work they're either sleeping or we spend family time together. The perfect time to do the networking stuff will come up and when it does, I'll be there with my camera ready to make a great Part 5 :)
ItsMyNaturalColour Wish you best of Luck!!! I'm so excited about that part. "Close" I said so because only few videos in past four months. Yup its difficult when you have children's.
I enjoy when a man talks. Usually is a woman who is always talking and talking... I'm a woman and I can get pretty annoyed when we talk too much haha. Thanks for all the info, very useful ! :)
I would rarther a phone where i can just pop a new battery in. even if its needs tools to get the back off glued in batteries are anti consumer if its apple or samsung or whoever.
Apple actually slowed down IPhones on purpose newer andriods/ a bit older doesn't slow down I use (samsung) you might think in a Samsung sheep but I have nothing againist them accept for the cost the slow down
Granted Apple was guilty of not being transparent about it but there are very valid technical reasons for throttling the CPU when the power output of a battery is degraded
As an American i prefer the natural accent like the one the guy here has, you are just a Racist dickhead basically, you are one of the reason most countries despise us yanks. here is a pro tip though, if you don't like the content FUCK OFF you uncultured Twat.
Looks like I forgot to add the final clip in the video, tit!!!
Anyway, in a nutshell I said... "this phone is great, can't wait to try out the camera more, I'll update you guys in the Vlog.. and thanks for watching! "
Whoops... Also in the description you said you chose the iPhone 6 64GB but I presume you meant the 8 64GB ?
Ryan Stenz Very British thing to do!

Super neat Tom! Glad to see you upload! Have a nice day Tom!
Man that red is gorgeous! Awesome to see you back for another video Tom, looking forward to the next Vlog too
Skip the bullshit talk to 4:40
nokturnalmortom666 thank you
nokturnalmortom666 did
-_-
Thanks😂😂😂
Thx mate
Nice, I do love the red! I'm still rocking my iPhone 6S 64GB. I just replaced the battery on it after 700 cycles on the original battery and now it feels like a new phone!
I tell you what the Fcc labels look so bad on this phone. why can't the UK take them off. the US version looks better
because the EU will not let us do what we want and forces this shit on us
True
Tom so great to see a new video, and a new iPhone.... Also REALLY glad to see you are supporting (Product) RED :-) :-)
7:08 best SFX ever
I was rocking the 5s. Broke it. Rocked the 6 for a little while. Loved it. However the battery went bad and the screen went bad. So my mum upgraded me 3 weeks ago to the iPhone SE. I love it. Amazing phone.

But an upgrades an upgrade, why didn’t you get the iPhone X.
He said he didn't bother updating it so that isn't the case.
TalesOfWar Ah well a knackered battery it is then. But as I said an upgrades an upgrade.
The iPhone x is not worth the price at all.
Bleachanna In your opinion. And you haven said why or do you like Android?
marksapollo I'm not talking about Android in this. But an additional 400 dollars for an oled screen that has a notch is not worth it.
The red makes that phone look really good. Not sure if I should get an 8 or X in the beginning of June. Only difference is that the down payment will be a little more, but monthly payments will be the same for either phone.
I suppose it depends on how well you like notches and whether you want to learn a new set of gestures, and whether you want to pay extra for that privilege :D

Tom - Does Jess still have her iPhone 5S
My iPhone 6 in silver did that, sadly the phone battery could no longer hold a charge soon after with it dying after about 10 minutes. Soon upgraded to the SE however, now I’m just planning to buy an XR sometime this year.
I threw a $7 eBay battery in my daughters 6s so I could try to use it when she got the iPhoneX and all of the little issues she was having disappeared. Phone has been back to rock solid the last 6 months or so.
New phone day is a good day!
no it isnt
yeah, It is
Also I'm on 3 myself, how much would I be expecting to pay for something like this, do you get a discount or not?
BrokenGlassesTech for now. It costs £180 - £250
You should have tried a couple battery calibrations on the 6 but likely it's just dead after all the years. And Yup the 8 got heavier again, kinda noticable for me because I jumped from a 5S and I still didn't get used to it after a couple months. I can relate to the vibration thing.

What is wrong with your mouse?

first?
and yeah i got an iPhone 6 almost 3 years ago, but smashed it, so the one I currently use has been with me for about 21 months... still works decently well with heavy use... I plan to switch away from the Apple ecosystem though.
I have the iPhone X, ill keep it for a good 3 or 4 years
Do you still have it? Lol
Hi Tom, Nice to see that you've finally upgraded to a lovely new phone.
the other day I had my 7 in my bookbag and i sent a message to it to see if it was still there and then my whole bookbag vibrated so i think its more powerful with a otterbox on it cause i would have my 7 on the desk with no case on and i cant tell if the home button works, but when the case is on i can feel it working
I wonder if the iPhone 6 had an aftermarket battery fitted by the refurb seller? Haven't seen an iPhone battery fail in that way, my old iPhone 6 still had a very good battery when I sold it a few months ago and it sounds like it probably had a lot more use. I wish they'd have the red devices available at launch as I'd have probably bought one. That headphone adapter is actually surprisingly durable; at least as durable as it is annoying. The iPhone 8 has remarkably good audio performance too via said adapter into a decent pair of headphones.
Ashley Cox all 6's fail like that repeatedly whether it's apple original or sketchy Chinese battery.
starts 4:40
I have a 2022 iPhone SE, similar to this one, I love it!
i still have my iPhone 7 Plus Product Red edition :) I don't see any point in upgrading to the 8 and i'm not a fan of the X as they removed the Thumb Print Scanner which i like. :(
Wallpaper?
why you didn get A plus model?
There’s no writings on the back only iphone and product red that is written on it
does the iphone 8 take iphone 6s plus sim card ?
I would assume so... I think SIM cards are universal as long as the phone isn't locked to a curtain carrier.
I think I’m gonna wait for an SE 2 or something like that, I’m just not happy with the 6, 7, 8 nor X. Same goes for the newest MacBook Pros, I have the Early 2015 and I just can’t bring myself to upgrade. It also works very well so I don’t feel the need to, I guess. I just really have to fix the screen, it’s broken. But I’m glad you like your new phone! One thing I’m sure of, if I didn’t have a phone with a headphone jack, I’d definitely switch to wireless earphones.
Zeke se 2 might come in 2020
Why does his have the writing mine doesn’t
Different countries have different requirements on what information needs to be printed onto devices like these.
Regarding the vibration an alternate option could be something like a Fitbit, I have a flex2 which vibrates on my wrist when I get a phone call or text. It’s a secondary function of the flex 2 but one I really miss if I don’t have my Fitbit on.
If you don't update iOS and apps, the phone will runs great as it should be, I'm telling you, I'm using a iPhone 5 since 2014 and no problem
I’m getting mine tomorrow I’m excited
Whilst it’s good that Apple give money on the product red scheme, they are quite tight, the donation is 10% of the proceeds (profits) from each sale, which is actually not a huge amount.

Please do networking part 5. Great video though.
Any progress on NAS :)
OMG! What a coincidence I was thinking of upgrading my 6 with Wi-Fi problems and battery like yours to an 8. But three didn’t give me a good deal from my sim only... I found one on mobiles.co.uk with 16gb of data on Vodafone! But might wait until September . Anyways you deserve it looking forward to more videos ☺️
my red 8 doesn’t have the extra stuff at the bottom, it only has “iPhone” and “(PRODUCT)RED”
localsighs his is the uk version
where can I get the keyboard?
IM MORE INTERESTED IN THAT YELLOW WATCH YOU HAVE ON?
+ItsMyNaturalColor
"u" in Colour
I got a 6 on a contact 2 years ago(which I just came off of in march) and it’s showing it’s age and I’d like to get a new one, but I’d have to buy outright from Apple or whomever because I have a good plan I can’t get anymore and I’d lose if I did a upgrade from my carrier so it’s a lot of money upfront..... plus I’m not really jazzed to buy the same phone design with slight upgraded internals.....

I have a product red 7 plus. Wish it had the black screen
Awesome stuff! I've got the 8 Plus and the camera is absolutely insane in my opinion. I don't play around with the Android flagships anymore, though.
Timo Neumann you should check out the Android's cameras, like the s9 the camera is insane. Personally my mom's 7 looks like garbage compared to my v20, which was shocking because that camera on the 7 was insane when I saw it, it was like having night vision in the dark, I recently bought the v20 when the price went half and it blows the 7 out of the water.
Awesome product unboxing video
i do have to admit, the black front looks amazing! I got a white front on my red 7 plus. :P
Great to see a new video!
Battery replacement are normal after 1,5-2 years on the iPhone’s. I have changed ALOT of them for customers 😅
nice video tom!
The uk adapter is so much slimmer than the us one. Great for leaving in the wall and not getting it damaged
Hope you're happy with the new phone Tom! just dropped everything to watch this :p
Didn’t expect this from you mate, its a killer phone though! I hope you enjoy it :)
Rainbows in the screens
you should save up for the white ceramic apple watch i think it would look good on you specially with your cool hair
Dude why so few vids used to love watching ur vids still waiting on the n64 vids
Am I an idiot for thinking the product red iphone was supposed to be a case only?
Semi No because the iPhone X has a Product Red leather case available, the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus have the red glass and sides.
Semi it was a case first then they made phones in that color
Very nice device
Of course tom you choose to purchase a red iPhone not a black iPhone like the rest of us :P
Hey TOM, i thought its a notification for Networking Video. But it has been ages .... waiting & waiting.... i thought you are about to close channel. also i noticed you even don't like to reply most of the times.

Pure beauty if u have seen it in real life, im serious
nice iphone
2018... I still use an iphone 3GS! Fantastic machine!
Do Apple Devices in the UK need all those ugly labels? iPhones in the US don’t have that. That being said, Great video Tom!
nice unboxing !
Congratulations on the new phone. I hope it serves you well for as long as you want it to. :)
1:38
Great Video!
I enjoy when a man talks. Usually is a woman who is always talking and talking... I'm a woman and I can get pretty annoyed when we talk too much haha. Thanks for all the info, very useful ! :)
Apple put out updates, that make the battery worse "to protect the phone" against heavy load programs.....yeah....🙄
I'd rather it be slow than not work at all or randomly shut off.
I would rarther a phone where i can just pop a new battery in. even if its needs tools to get the back off glued in batteries are anti consumer if its apple or samsung or whoever.
Guust .
Guust or just pay the $39 aud to get the battery replaced and they typically from my experience just replace the whole phone
Joshua Maxwell You dont get my point....they did this, without communication and aproval.
Brillant new phone dude :D
3 is in sweden
Looks sick Tom! Would love to own one of my own, need the funds though!
Love it!
Im moving to android with the Moto E5 plus, so tired of apple making my iPhone 6s plus battery worse and worse with every new "update".
That thumb ring though :-?
Apple actually slowed down IPhones on purpose newer andriods/ a bit older doesn't slow down I use (samsung) you might think in a Samsung sheep but I have nothing againist them accept for the cost the slow down
Granted Apple was guilty of not being transparent about it but there are very valid technical reasons for throttling the CPU when the power output of a battery is degraded
I can't afford a new iPhone
still no headphone jack..
welcome back - make more videos :) a fair amount of static in the background constantly.. maybe its just me...
EverythingNewUnderThe Son i think its your end mate, cant hear any noise at my end
m

Brilliant phone, rubbish battery
Half of the video is about iphone 6
