I have the Xr. What do you want to know? Did you have an iPhone before? If so is it a better phone? How’s battery life? Does it fit in a pocket in a case?

My wife had a 6, I think, before the X. She said it's not much different and certainly not worth more $$. I will say that the X seems to have a more durable battery. She normally gets a new phone every two years due to the battery. I have not heard any complaints about the X and she would be due for a new phone in a few months.

I had a 6S before. Battery life is noticeably better and the bigger screen size helps too. The extra gig of RAM is really helpful for stability on one of the games I have. I certainly like this one better than my old one. Have not had any problems with it. Only issue I had was restoring everything from my old phone. Had to reload a handful of my apps from the store (they were all freebies so no issue there)

I don't have one but my wife and son do. If you use the camera very often you will notice that the camera on the X is a huge upgrade. It went from 1.2Mp to 7.0MP. It is a very noticeable improvement. The camera on the X has a much more powerful zoom as well. My son does keep his in his pocket and it does have a case. I have not heard him complain about it being too big yet so I would assume it's a non issue. The X is also waterproof up to a few feet underwater. My son already tested his and it held up to the water test. The only other thing I can think of that is a big difference is the X now has an OLED display compared to the LCD on the 6. If I were ready to upgrade my phone (currently have the 6 also) I would be looking at something in the X series just for the simple fact that we are getting to point where apps will soon become harder to get for the older phones like what happened to 4's. As the technology advances older phones get to where they can't handle the latest technology.

chewbacca is the display that much better than the 6. I was definitely interested in how good the camera was because that’s something I really enjoy is taking decent pictures with my phone.

I have always used a Samsung Galaxy as my personal phone. At work, they supplied us with flip phones for basic communication. I have never used an iPhone before. They finally updated us with new iPhone 7. I hate mine. I don't think I will ever figure it out. Why is the back button at the top of the screen? and is it possible to move it down to the bottom right side where it should be?

But in far left corner where it is supposed to go.

I still have a 5C that's about to find a new home(trashcan) my patience is about over! Oldest kid has 5c and hasn’t reported glitches. But she doesn’t use it often and when she does it’s for a mini ipad mainly. I’m not unhappy with my iphone7 by any stretch but my wife wants a new phone and they are offering buy one get one free. Apple was/is offering nice deals on the x series also. But For me getting a new phone before my old one goes bad is a headache saver. Plus I get more money when selling it.

The display is definitely more vivid and the colors are more brilliant on my sons phone when compared side by side. However, I'm not sure how much difference you would notice if you weren't comparing them side by side.

Had Samsung's when I finally got a smart phone and work uses iPhones. Hate the iPhones. Hard to find things when I need to and not as customizable as the Samsung's in regards to settings. Peripheral accessories also seem to be quite a bit more expensive for the Apple products.
