Hi everyone.

I have both the iPhone 6 and an iPhone 7.

I find I'm really struggling with the 7 at the moment and feel totally at home with the 6. I don't know if there's a docking feature I could use with my 7 so I can plug the lightning headset in and the power supply too?

I love my iPhone 6 but at the same time I feel I should be going to the 7. With the 7 I find it more sensitive to touch which somehow puts me off using it.

Advise would be welcome.

By the way can you get a battery case for the 7 yet?

Cheers.

Hi. Luckily, the 6 and the 7 are the same size, at least the regular version is, I don't ever get the plus phones cause I think they're a bit too big for me. So, whatever case fits a 6 will fit a 7 as well. So, if you have a battery case for the 6 I don't see any reason why you couldn't put the 7 in it and it should work fine. Just keep in mind that you may not be able to use the headphones depending on how the case is made. Most cases I've seen do have a cutout for a charging port so in theory, you should be able to listen to music and charge at the same time. Right now that's the only way I'm aware of to do it without buying an extra bit of hardware, and plenty of companies are coming out with hardware that lets you charge and listen to your phone at the same time. hope that helps.

You can get the Apple smart battery case from Apple website. That is for your iPhone 7. The price is $99 .

@toonhead, remember that the seven has no charging port, so it's either lightning adapter and 3.5mm jack, or lightning phones and that's it. Unless you can charge with a micro USB or something like that. i have a six S plus, can not wait until the sven in a year or so, or I might just get the eight or something. Btw i love the bigger screens and better camra.
