I got X after two years with 6+ and absolutely love it, especially camera and video abilities( some are better than my huge Nikon camera). Make sure you watch some tutorials, since they added a lot of new staff.

I have iPhone 7Plus and love it. A month later my husband got the 8 and he loves his. Frankly, I wasn't willing to wait for the 10 or pay that price when the others are excellent.

The word is out that next to spending top dollar and getting the latest greatest known as the 10 model the 8 is getting a good review for less money. Me, I am still on the 5 model because it works just fine.

I have the iPhone 7 Plus and like it. The size is great for reading, but a little difficult for storage in purse or pocket for example. Hubby has the new 10 and LOVES it. Camera much better, size of screen as big as my 7Plus, but overall phone smaller. If you don't like too much touchy stuff (no home button on 10), go for the 8 - same good camera, but old feel. Make sure you are comfortable with size of Plus.

I recently upgraded from a 6s to the 8 plus and I love it. I was very happy with the 6s but now that I have the larger phone with the larger screen I am very happy with it and can understand why people like them.  The battery life is longer and photography features are excellent.

Probably iphone 8+ to save you some money. 

I have a 7+ for 2 years feel like 6.  Not doing everything on smart phone.  I have seen people carry those huge jumbo screened smart phone.

IF you like your iPhone 6 you are going to get the iPhone7 or 8 or 99.

No one wants to learn anything new. 

Now if you don't like how iPhone or how the carrier treated you....those Samsung products look really good.

So far Sprint and iPhone7 have treated me well.

Judi, good choice. I went from 6+ to 8+ (256)  a couple months ago and love it. The transition was seamless as it is very similar to 6+...glad I didn't wait for the X and spend the extra money!

BIG HINTS:

#1  Before you set up your 8+ run all the updates for iTunes and iCloud then back up to one before transferring your data. There was some glitch with iTunes so I had to use iCloud and it took a LONG time to upload everything so do the transfer at night when you don't need the phone.

#2  Eventually I found out that the iTunes issue was because the 8+ was not running the latest OS. Apparently it was not updated before shipping and that caused the problem. Good luck!

This morning, I am leaning toward the 7plus.  There's not but a hairs difference between phone size forvut and the 8plus...but my biggest concern is in storage 32 go vs 64 go but my 6 only has 12 gb so I don't know if I need 64...
