An offer I couldn't refuse.

Some months ago, when the iPhone 6 and 6+ came out, I recall
commenting that I wouldn't upgrade from my 5S because I didn't see any
drastic improvements, aside from the much larger screen size on the 6+.
I did like that big, shiny screen, though.
To tempt me, Verizon offered a $350 trade on my 5S if I extended my
contract for cell services for two years and bought a new 6+ for $399.
So, I upgraded for less than $50 out of pocket. Pretty good deal, I
think. I've been fairly well pleased with Verizon's cell service
generally, though it is weak in some areas of my home county. On the
other hand, service from some of the other large providers here is
non-existent in a few areas of the county. Verizon is terrific in the
cities and immediate suburbs, though.
So, I like the 6+, but it is a *big* honking phone. I have big hands,
so it isn't a real problem, even with a protective, anti-drop-damage
case on it. I have a Thule case and a ZAGG screen protector on the
device.
If you have any serious questions about the 6+, I'll give it a shot at
trying to answer them.
You had $50 left after paying your debts including taxes? Fantastic!
