Battery will need replacing. My XS battery already headed south for winter and it's not even a year old. Life is maybe 60% of original.

My son has been pleasantly surprised by the battery in the X. I had battery replaced in 6 just before the price went back up. Mine still runs about 2.5 days

Running into some annoyances. I'm going to delete phone from car and vice versa and reconnect this weekend. Hoping that resolves most of these and ios updates resolve the rest without spending a bunch of time researching. I already checked relevant settings:
1. Messages to iPhone inconsistently showing up on iPad (text message forwarding selected on iPhone) 2. Music on iPhone play lists not working in car (using Lightning / USB, not Bluetooth); songs are on the phone because they play when not connected to car 3. Some phone contacts not showing up in car. Mostly just the one's I use most frequently. 4. Can't dial contacts using car controls / iDrive (get "unknown error" on phone) - need to use phone to dial and then its ok. 5. Messages appear in iDrive reflect unknown contact rather than sender's name

I mean it's the same thing in terms of functionality. Maybe I'm not as impressed by glitz and glam as I used to be. Don't get me wrong, I really love the phone but as other have stated, I just don't see any special improvement other than the camera. I use this thing for email only, so it's not really an improvement over my old 7. That and this thing weighs way too much!

I had a X, got it stolen, bought a 6S that I’ve had for a few months. Couldn’t stand the smaller screen, lower quality pictures, and home button. I guess I did adjust to the new norm that was the X.
Got the 11 (regular) and love it. If I still had the I wouldn’t have gotten one (my phone prior to that was the 5S). But I use my phone so much that it made sense to upgrade it. Plus the phone is a few hundred dollars short of a G, so that’s “savings” I guess... |

My wife and I replaced our 6's. I went with the 11, while my wife went with the 11 Pro as she didn't want that big of a phone.
Other than the learning curve of not having a Home button anymore we have both been very happy so far. I've been able to go days without charging.

However, once I leave my driveway, I lose that WiFi and have a dead zone for about 1/2 mile until I get to my front gate when driving, or pretty much entirely when I go for my morning walk. Certainly not life changing issues but just pointing out I don't think there is any improvement in reception on AT&T for the 11 vs. the 6S, at least for me.

Not just iPhone specific but the past 2 years of smartphones has been kinda meh. The underscreen fingerprint scanner is cool but I think what I'm waiting for is a phone with an underscreen camera and earpiece so that the entire front is clean.

A new tower went up about 3 miles from our neighborhood but it had no effect so apparently AT&T is not in on sharing it.
