It's weird, Apple makes a pretty, slim phone and then you guys stick it inside a gaudy rubber case.

Janne, my iPhone 4s is 4 years old, and in perfect condition, thanks to a cover. Going to do the same with my iPhone 6 !

Is the Pendo 7" tablet any good? I don't need a quick machine, I just want something to tap away lots of notes with and draw, on the train.

Link pls.

True. But with the latest iOS update (8.1?), we get Apple Pay over here. So with the case, my phone is thicker. But my wallet should get slimmer, what with all the credit cards I can remove. The only question I have is, will I bend my iPhone 6 when I shove it inside the card reader at the gas station??? I just don't think it's gonna fit. Or maybe it will! Hold on, I'll get my hammer.

If you fold it then it will work.

I would normally agree and I haven't had a case before. But the iPhone 6 looks especially scratchable on the back and slippery to hold. So I'm going to give a case a try. Not sure if I will keep using it or not.

I've still not really got an incentive to upgrade my iPhone 4S, happy with it and have a battery case thing that gets round the battery not lasting as long as it used to. On a sim only contract at £12 a month. Don't think even I can justify the cost to upgrade

I was of the same opinion until I smashed my screen!

Correction: pretty -> boring

Still, in case the phone slips out of your hands you will appreciate the rubber case.
Especially if it costs 700+ euros

Jamie mate, you have no idea, how big is the jump, from the 4s to the 6. You need to try it to believe it
