On Black Friday, I drove\u00a0to an\u00a0Apple Store with my dad\u00a0to upgrade both of our phones. He had a beaten-up iPhone 5 and I had an iPhone 6 with enough issues to warrant a post of its own<\/a>. We were almost the first ones in the store, entering with a small group of other customers right when the doors opened. I immediately asked\u00a0a sales representative to\u00a0help with the sale. The particular iPhone model I wanted was a popular one that was selling\u00a0out everywhere and I needed to make sure I got one\u00a0before I left to go back to\u00a0school.<\/p>\n

After suffering through\u00a0my\u00a0iPhone 6’s unpredictable battery life,\u00a0I made the decision to buy\u00a0a Plus-sized model this time around. The Plus models have\u00a0a longer battery life\u00a0compared\u00a0to the standard iPhones. In addition, as\u00a0a blogger, having a good camera\u00a0is a necessity and the iPhone 7 Plus’s dual-camera system is one of the nicest mobile cameras I have ever used. I’m not so sure it will replace my real camera but having better pictures on-the-go sure sounds nice. I ended up\u00a0purchasing a matte black\u00a0iPhone 7 Plus with 128GB of storage.<\/p>\n

My dad prefers\u00a0technology that is familiar. Since he already owned\u00a0an Otterbox case for his iPhone 5 and he\u00a0did not\u00a0want any big changes, he opted to get\u00a0the iPhone SE which possesses\u00a0the same outer body as the iPhone 5 but\u00a0has better internal specs. As a bonus, it came with a $50 Apple gift card because of\u00a0the\u00a0Black Friday promotion they were running.<\/p>\n

Everything\u00a0could<\/em> have been all fine and dandy after that point but once\u00a0we initiated the sale, pretty much everything that could go wrong, did go wrong. Now, allow\u00a0me to remind you, we arrived first thing\u00a0when the doors opened at 8 AM.<\/p>\n

\"Apple<\/p>\n

When the salesman tried to set up my dad’s iPhone SE, he\u00a0couldn’t get the\u00a0SIM card to connect to Verizon. The iPhone SE\u00a0would\u00a0be turned on\u00a0and operate\u00a0but it would not establish a connection with Verizon’s cell towers. No phone calls would go in or out. Simultaneously, my iPhone 7 Plus could not\u00a0seem to get past a “Setting up iCloud” screen that would remain on-screen almost endlessly. Each time it appeared, we would watch it load for a bit, and then the salesman would impatiently restart the\u00a0device and start the whole setup process all over again. I personally felt it just needed extra time because I have\u00a0a lot of photos<\/a> in iCloud but he told me\u00a0that it was “not normal” to take that long. He even restored the\u00a0brand new phone… which I thought was a questionable troubleshooting decision for a brand new out-of-the-box iPhone.<\/p>\n

I anxiously awaited for the\u00a0problems to be fixed because I had to be back at school at exactly\u00a012 for my job. In addition to a long commute to school, I first had\u00a0to drop my dad off at home since I drove him to the store. At around 10:45, I got anxious so\u00a0we left.<\/p>\n

My dad’s iPhone\u00a0was fixed just in time (it turned out the salesman\u00a0mixed up the SIM cards. (He had 5 different ones laying out on the table since he kept activating and deactivating SIM cards for whatever reason.) So after 2 hours of experimenting, my dad’s phone was finally fixed. My phone, however, was\u00a0not so\u00a0lucky. I left Apple with a brand new non-functioning $800.00\u00a0iPhone\u00a0to supposedly replace my other\u00a0non-functioning iPhone.<\/p>\n

F\"\"ortunately, for all the trouble, the manager gave us\u00a0a $50.00 black leather case<\/strong>, a $50.00 gray leather case<\/strong>, two $30.00 tempered glass screen protectors<\/strong>, a $30.00 2-meter long iPhone charging cable<\/strong>, and a $50.00 Apple Store gift card<\/strong>. Not so bad, after all.<\/p>\n

Once\u00a0I got back to Rutgers, I tried setting up my iPhone again on my own. The iCloud screen appeared just as\u00a0it did earlier\u00a0and it took\u00a0about\u00a0an hour to fully complete. I made use of the time by setting up my dorm room Christmas tree! I am not sure why setting up iCloud\u00a0needed that much time but hey, it loaded and now my phone works so I’m happy! Plus, I got $240.00 worth of Apple stuff! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Trifari"},"description":"For more than a decade, I have been documenting my misadventures on The Rocky Safari while exploring destinations all around the world. I may be an introvert at heart, but I love stepping outside of my comfort zone. Thanks to numerous solo travel adventures, I've learned to embrace long-term travel as a lifestyle. Now my primary goal is to help you explore unusual places, travel longer, and design a remote lifestyle.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.therockysafari.com"]}]}},"modified_by":"Rocky Trifari","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=2560,height=1920,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/IMG_0309-scaled.jpg","uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=2560,height=1920,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/IMG_0309-scaled.jpg",2560,1920,false],"thumbnail":["\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=150,height=150,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/IMG_0309.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=300,height=225,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/IMG_0309.jpg",300,225,true],"medium_large":["\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=768,height=576,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/IMG_0309.jpg",704,528,true],"large":["\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=1024,height=768,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/IMG_0309.jpg",704,528,true],"1536x1536":["\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=1536,height=1152,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/IMG_0309.jpg",1536,1152,true],"2048x2048":["\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=2048,height=1536,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/IMG_0309.jpg",2048,1536,true],"post-thumbnail":["\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=284,height=213,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/IMG_0309.jpg",282,212,true],"fluida-featured":["\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=284,height=290,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/IMG_0309.jpg",282,288,true],"fluida-featured-lp":["\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=417,height=290,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/IMG_0309.jpg",417,290,true],"fluida-featured-half":["\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=800,height=290,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/IMG_0309.jpg",800,290,true],"fluida-featured-third":["\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=512,height=290,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/IMG_0309.jpg",512,290,true],"fluida-header":["\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=1250,height=230,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/IMG_0309.jpg",1250,230,true],"fluida-lpbox-1":["\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=216,height=140,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/IMG_0309.jpg",215,139,true],"fluida-lpbox-2":["\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=312,height=350,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/IMG_0309.jpg",192,215,true],"fluida-lpbox-3":["\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=162,height=200,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/IMG_0309.jpg",161,199,true],"fluida-featured-square":["\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=512,height=512,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/IMG_0309.jpg",512,512,true],"fluida-featured-square-large":["\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=1024,height=1024,fit=crop,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect,metadata=none\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/IMG_0309.jpg",1024,1024,true]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Rocky Trifari","author_link":"https:\/\/www.therockysafari.com\/author\/therockysafarigmail-com\/"},"uagb_comment_info":4,"uagb_excerpt":"On Black Friday, I drove\u00a0to an\u00a0Apple Store with my dad\u00a0to upgrade both of our phones.
