Get either an SE or an 8/8+. I guess there's no point in getting a 7/7+ now if a marginally better version is available, unless you wanna pay less.

T-Mobile is currently paying for my iPhone 7, they are going to have to come with a something similar if they expecting me to upgrade, cuz I'm not seeing anything worth paying an extra 20+ bucks a month for.

So the 6S is gonna be the "free" upgrade phone? Or maybe the SE? Free in quotes because my roommate is one of those people who's on a grandfathered two year contract and still thinks the phone is free.

If the rumours about poor yield on the oled are true it will likely be supply constrained for a while though.

SE will always be the free option. for a normal phone it does in fact drop to the 6s.

the iPhone 8 appears to be exactly .01 mm bigger in all dimensions than the iPhone 7, another excuse for the case mills to churn out another size.

Not really though, cellular carriers were subsidizing phone prices in the monthly fees, not any more.
