As above tempted to get the iPhone 7 in jet black, what do you think? Good decision, crap decision not bad decision? Cheers!

It doesn't matter.

You'll return it as soon as you've bought it whatever the model and whatever the brand.
I got the money now to spend and keep stuff, as long as I don't go too crazy.

Still got my iPhone 4s so I have decided I need bigger memory for my music really, the 4s is only 8gb.

If it's just for music capacity then look for a used 128GB 6th Gen iPod Touch (A grade) on Cex. (They have a grade A condition gold one for £280 right now.)

A jet black iPhone 7 of the same capacity costs an insane amount of money if it's just for more music.

Crap decision.

Oppo F1, expandable to 128gb and you can move the card to your next phone.
Got my music on iTunes and what to use it for the gym too.

Good idea, I had thought about just an iPod touch too - perhaps that's what I should do then wait for the iPhone 8. Cheers Chebby.

I have to agree with Robin - the Samsung Galaxy S7 is hard to beat. My son is a massive Apple fan and even he has moved to a S7 in the past week.

He is really pleased with it and cannot believe how much better it is than his iPhone (and a lot cheaper).

Good decision - there's very little reason for getting an iphone 7 IMHO (unless your contract is up and you get a good deal)

Ive just gone back to Apple after a few years with Windows mobile and Android on various different devices. I must confess, I do like iOS and the 6s I bought is a very good piece of kit. The 7 is almost identical except for a few insignificant extras (and a home button that just feels strange!) so save your money Gel and just keep swapping stuff on and off your 4s

(irritating but much cheaper)

Yep, cheers. My music tends to delete itself but it's still there but I just can't play it. Some I still can so I make do with that, just means I keep changing music at the gym. It's only 8gb but I can make do. One of my old mates from school and college on Facebook sent me his messenger but for some reason I didn't have enough space to download, I will try again in the future. Cheers.

Huh?

What's you friend's messenger got to do with it?

What is 'hosting' your music? The Cloud or a Mac or PC?

I didn't have enough memory to download it. My music is just in iTunes. And I got it on my phone and iPad.

Ok I don't have 'iTunes' on my iPhone or iPad any more. It's just called 'music' nowadays.

However, I do have iTunes on my Mac Mini, which is where I back up my iOS devices. What backs up your iPad and iPhone? Do you back them up - and sync your music - to iTunes on a PC (or Mac) or the cloud?

Yep, I have music too. I just enter my iTunes password on my iPhone and iPad and the music is there. I don't back them up. Tried sync my music on the laptop the other day but failed.

It seems you need to get some help. You have an Apple shop in MK.
Yep, cheers! I got my niece to look at it, and she got the music working again but only for a limited period and now it's starting to not play again.
