Hi guys, this is a sad update on my camera, my iPhone 6S. It is completely dead. I'll explain why.

On Sunday Night, when I was coming back home from doing a train run, my phone died because of my battery. I charged it in, and it won't charge. Before I went to bed, I decided to charge my phone for the night. The next morning, I went to get my phone, and when I got it I turned it on, and I discovered it's completely dead! So my dad took my phone to the cell phone repair store, and said they were going to get it fixed. But I haven't got my iPhone back since then because they wanted more time. And then, I went to pick it up, and said they couldn't fix it. The Motherboard part inside the iPhone got fried likely because of a bad charger I got from a gas station. That's why it was completely dead...

I'm hoping for myself to get a new iPhone, likely another 6S, but you will see, I'll get you updates on the new phone when I get it.

Ouch, when i was trapped at Newark Liberty International Airport, my parents bought some USB charger ports so they could charge their phones on the go, little do i know, when i went to Greece two months later. They weren't compatible for tablets, my lead split where the charger goes in, meaning that i had to use a long lead charger that charges slow when its on.

This is why I do not film with my phone.

Update: The other day, I got my new iPhone, and since then, I've been uploading train videos from my new iPhone.

You really need to invest into a digital camcorder.
