Awesome! I currently have a 2 gb plan and sometimes I go over, so 4gb would be a great help! What's their promo called? Just double data?

Sounds awesome. It tracks your steps, walking and jogging, automatically. One person online said they didn't even set it to track anything and discovered it was. It does a lot of other stuff, too.

As for the camera, I think it does time-lapse. Is that what you were thinking? I'm interested in experimenting with that, too.
Oh that's interesting! I've never heard of the Health app. Is it free, and is it accurate?

Yep, it was time-lapse. I tried experimenting with it, but you can't do much in an AT&T store...lol

Yeah, Health app comes with the phone and I haven't heard anything bad about it. Not sure all what it does, but I know it tracks your movement and gives you reports.

Sorry I missed your question. The new promo is for 10gb plans and up. We were on 30gb and went to 40. Hotspot wifi is the only way we can get internet where I live. It's so expensive

Mike, did you get it? Which model, the 6 or 6Plus?

I'm sure enjoying my 6, and have already moved on to a different case than the first one..... one that isn't as slippery. Feels much safer now.

One thing I found out with my new phone, and upgrading my iPad mini and iPad Air to iOS 8.02..... when my phone rings the it also rings on my iPads and I can actually answer like a speaker phone on my iPad. This is using new feature called Continuity, and can be turned off if you don't like it. Very handy for me if I leave my phone upstairs on a charger, or in my purse, it rings on my iPad on my kitchen counter.

I'm sure there are many new features I haven't discovered yet.

How are the rest of you enjoying your new phones? My DD is still waiting for her 6 Plus that she ordered before the release date.

Yes, I got it -- the regular iphone 6. Love, love, love it. To be honest, I really missed Siri when I broke my iphone 5 and had to go back to a 4. I use her for reminders, alarms, directions, etc., all the time.

But I like the slightly bigger display, LOVE the new camera toys -- slow mo and time lapse. I haven't experimented a lot with it, but I like that the health app tracks my activity even without setting it.

I've had my ipad powered down since I got it, so I didn't know about the phone feature on that! Thanks for the tip!

I found one cool thing out yesterday. If the iphone is plugged into a power device, you don't even have to press "on" to activate Siri. Just say "Hey, Siri" and she'll come on and ask what you need. I have it plugged into one of those portable batteries a lot of the time, so I just say "Hey, Siri, call Kelly" or "Hey, Siri, play Beatles" and I don't even have to touch the phone!

Did I say I love it?

Oh, almost forgot. I discovered I could order the phone from AT&T any time in the last month of my contract. So even thought my contract expired yesterday, I've had the phone for a week and a half!

Geeez, thanks for finally telling me you got it. I am wondering how many others have the 6 and 6 plus, and how they like them.

I like Siri too, and will use your tip. Hey, it's always nice to have somebody around to talk to (Siri) besides just the doggies. The only prob I have with Siri is when I dictate a text and say a Hawaiian word..... well you can only guess how much fun Siri has with spelling on those.

I haven't implemented the Health app, but can see doing that in the future.

I'm glad you all got your phones and you love them! I haven't updated my iPad to iOS 8 yet but I really need to do that soon.
I have been so busy with life lately that I haven't had time to play around with Siri or anything else much.
Y'all need to post your fav new features. I'm sure I will never discover them otherwise.

I also bought another case. I like the pelican case for when I'm going to be outdoors a lot but for every day use I love a car I ordered from Amazon. I can't remember the name but it's clear and a silicone case and so thin but protective. Plus It allows me to show off my gold phone

I love showing off my gold phone too , and the new case has gold rim around edges that are easier to grip.

So, the new gold iPad Air 2 is looking really tempting to me. Thinking Santa might need to bring me one of those to match my prudy gold iPhone 6.

I just received my IPhone 6 (not the plus) and all I can is WOW this thing is a log bigger than my 4S.


I am trying to set up m Apple Pay and waiting for Wells Fargo so verify my account. I work in the payments industry and have been working on an Apple Pay project for a couple of months, shame on me for not ordering m phone when my boss told me to.

I haven't set up Apple pay yet. I think the only place local that is utilizing it is Walgreen. I'm in a very rural area

I tried it at Whole Foods tonight, it is pretty awesome.


I do Product Management for Financial Products and one of my products is the Debit Networks (like NYCE and Star). I have been managing updates to these products without ever using Apple Pay...well my Boss found a week ago and kind of gave me some grief over not updating.


Apple Pay is suppose to be very secure, I can tell you that your actual credit card number is not stored on the phone, what happens is your number is assigned a token. Each store you use it at has a unique token that is unique to your phone, the token cannot be used on anything else other than your phone at the store in which its assigned.

I work at a tmobile store and can't wait to get my own iPhone 6 plus. I can't decide if I want the silver or black one. I had a gold 5s before. We have to wait a while to buy after the launch date to make sure there's enough for customers. And I'm sure once I can order it there will be a long wait. All 6 plus iPhones are on back order.
