I am thinking of upgrading from Android phone (Samsung S8) to IPhone. Should I upgrade now or wait for the iPhone 8?

You should do what ever makes you happy and stop looking for opinions from others.
>>
Going from Android to an iPhone is a huge downgrade. You'll get overheating issues, very long battery charge times, terrible battery life, tons of missing useful functions and features, no good 4chan or torrent client, ect ect.

If you want to upgrade from the S8 then I highly recommend the oneplus 5.
>>
I am upgrading from s7 to iPhone 8 as long as Apple doesn't fuck up

I recommend it. Samsung has become a meme brand in recent years with edged screens and bixby buttons. iPhone has the raw performance. If you like playing games or have any high performance required apps especially I would.

Wait for iPhone 8 though, s8 to iPhone 7 isn't even an upgrade.

I am an iPhone 7 user and I dont experience any of those problems except the lack of 4chan app which I dont need because browsing 4chan is easy on my iPad Pro.

So how many good boy points did you have to save up to get your used iPhone 7 from mommy and daddy?

I have a job and staying 30 minutes vs 3 hours makes a huge difference for me.
>>
Wait for the iPhone 8 and then get a 7 or 7+ for cheaper.

Or stay with Android. Do what you want m8.
>>
>>62157024
Have you seen the iPhone 7 Plus? It’s basicaly a tablet. Also, where is the Samsung Galaxy S8 here?

I have a job too and I make $150k including bonus at 22.
>>
I live on neetbux and still have enough for an iPhone
what kind of poor ass indian country are people living in
>>
>>62157024
Getting a job was actually the reason I switched to iPhone. With less free time, don't have all day to dick around with custom roms just to get the phone in a state that I liked (this was pre-pixel)
>>
>>62157088
Sure you do manlet bobby.

>>62157171
You never needed to do that in the first place. Oneplus works out of the box, no custom roms needed.
>>
>>62156900
Do what you want, but I concur with the other anons. It's just a downgrade.
>>
>>62157024
I charge my iPhone 7 Plus overnight and at the end of a busy day I'm still 40%+. Some days I end up with 80% after 16 hours, only really using my phone during commute. I guess quick charging would be nice but it's never once been an issue.

>>62157198
I have Verizon, so I can't use your Chinese phone.

I'm pretty jealous desu, must be nice being this stupid, spending your hard earned money on expensive inferior trash, and then being able to brag about it with a smile.

>>62157245
You could have still gotten something better, yeah the oneplus is chinese trash but you don't see them blowing up on people's faces all the time.
>>
>>62157245
But the OnePlus X works on Verizon's LTE band.
>>
>>62156900
OP don't listen to these manlets defending their poor choices when it wasn't even the question you asked.

To answer your question, I think you should wait since we're so close. Even if it's announced and you don't like the new one, the 7/7 Plus should be cheaper after the announcement.
>>
>>62157198
>still shilling the oneplus with its bootloop and screen on backwards
>>
>>62157219
iPhone battery life is good when idle compared to android iirc. iPhone doesn't really run apps in the background, not really, even though there is an "open apps" thing if you swipe up, under the hood I hear it's more like an app history and they don't really run. Unsurprisingly in practice they still last better than Androids a lot of the time.

It still bootloops less than iPhones exploding in people's faces.
>>
>>62157314
Yes, the OS is good at sleeping apps. If I go to bed without my phone plugged in, it's usually at the same battery percentage when I wake up.

Are you saying your seriously torrent shit off your phone?

Note 7 battery explosions and fires were an unfortunate event. Glad samsung took responsibility and is making doing better quality control now.

Anyway iPhones seem to be copying them now and I would never recommend samsung because of all the bloat they pre-install anyway.

>access to millions of free movie/tv shows for you to watch in bed in just 10 seconds (sequential mode) AND download at the same time is bad
Please tell me more.

Why wouldn't you? It's a computer, and a pretty powerful one (not relative to the monsters that are desktop gaymen PC, just in a more absolute sense).

It can even act as the computer doing the main decoding of a media file or rendering a game or whatever for a TV now.
>>
>>62157551
I just normally use my laptop or desktop for that.
Using a phone just seems weird and less secure.
>>
>>62157593
> Using a phone just seems weird
Why? Many clients basically have the full suite of typical features, most smartphones don't care much processing power or even I/O wise, and they are completely capable of actually "consuming" most of the file types you could be downloading.

Hell, I can even make my smartphone act as a USB "stick" hosting a Linux live iso.

Wait, if you don't like 8 go with the 7S (Plus if you want bigger) or go with 7 which should be cheaper by then.
Theres no point of getting the 7 right now when 8 is about to coming out in a matter of weeks.

wait for the announcement
if you dont like the iphone 8 at least the 7 will have a small price drop
it's the equivalent of not paying tax if you live in canada

This is absolutely the best answer i have ever seen in 4chan by far
>>
>>62158150
Like a said, iOS means you have to settle for shitty 4chan clients that spy on you. On android you just download the open source clover .APK and install it (no need for jewgle playstore botnet).
>>
Aren't there work arounds to torrent on iOS via in browser plugins and the like?

Absolutely, the bittorrent protocol is excellent, and really came into its own when my (rural) home internet was down and I still wanted to download muh korean animes
>>
>>62157478

I do this with my jailbroken iPhone 6.

I can download mp3 albums on the go, load them straight to my music app from there
