I'm confused, does everyone think that you accrue interest just by having a statement balance?

They shouldn't. At times, I'll make a certain purchase that'll put my utilization at around 10% when my statement closes (the 14th of every month). My statement summary will show the transaction, which will be paid off whenever it posts. Therefore, Chase sees that I'm using the card, but I never pay them I dime in interest.

a running balance does not improve your credit score
that being said, there's no reason to pay everything off immediately. you can do it once a month and have no negatives

Exactly, and I very well may adjust to that method. But to pay interest with the (false) belief that it'll improve my score and credit report? Please.

The bank will never ever see my money.

Use it for damn near everything and pay it off as soon as the transactions posts. In other words, as a debit card, like you're supposed to.

Typical millennial. This doesn't improve your credit score at all. They are meant to have a running balance on them each month.

Who said anything about credit score? I use my card the way I do to rack up tens of thousands of points with a $0 balance. I don't care what the score is.

I dont understand why having to replace a battery after two years is such a betrayal lmao, especially at thirty bux. definitely wouldnt pay the original $80, but for $30? sure, whatever, batteries die. nothing new there.

Everyone knows batteries degrade. The issue here is that Apple intentionally throttled CPU performance, hid it, and only admitted it because they got caught with pie on their face.

yeah, I suppose thats fairly embarrassing, but is buying a new battery the only way to speed them back up? or are they planning on actually giving you the option in the future?

You can buy a new battery (Apple gets $$) or you can buy a new phone (Apple gets $$$$). Either way, Apple takes your money.

I'm not even convinced that getting a new battery resets the clock because I've tried that already.

See I'm not sure what to do now. I have an iPhone 6s, but I never upgraded to ios11 because literally everyone I talked to said don't because it will ruin your phone. Should I get the replacement battery and then update?

Didn't Apple say that the bug was dropped on iOS 10.2.X? IIRC, it wasn't introduced on iOS 11. My former 6 Plus was 10.3.X, so it had it.

Switched from my iPhone 6 Plus to Galaxy S8 Plus last month.

My 6 Plus would have qualified for this battery replacement deal, however I had already replaced it earlier in the year. The battery life after replacing it STILL wasn't as good as it was when my 6 Plus was mint, so I'm going to assume that my CPU performance was still somewhat compromised.

As for iMessage, I missed it for maybe like half a day. The amount of features my S8 Plus has is mind boggling - I realized just yesterday that I can auto call the person I'm texting just by bringing the phone to my ear.

The smartphone industry in general is about due for a serious slowdown since the global market is pretty saturated and phone innovation has nearly stopped. A slightly better camera and another couple GB of RAM aren't getting people to shell out an extra $600-$1,000 for an upgrade every year at this point.

why do people who make these claims pretend more than a tiny percentage of people are buying phones straight up?

the difference in cost between an iphone X and any other phone is basically just $5/month on a phone plan

I personally don't believe in those installment plans. All my phones are bought outright for reasons already stated.

Had there been no notch, Touch ID included, a bigger body/screen, and more OS customizability, I might've gotten the X. This coming from a guy who had nothing but iPhones since 2009.
