We've had several customers in the store holding their iPhone 6 that, at this point, is nothing more than an expensive coaster. (technical term is "bricking the phone") Why? They tried upgrading to the new iOS version 8.4 and it totally ruined their phone. I don't mean quirky things like battery power or slowness. I mean the phone is completely shut down and won't take a charge.
Here's an article about some of the more common problems with the new software upgrade:

It's always nice to have the most recent iOS running on your phone so you can get all the patches put in since the last version but my recommendation is to WAIT until 8.4.1 comes out. There isn't much benefit in 8.4 vs. 8.3 and LOTS of disadvantages and risks.
The new MacBook OS is also a piece of junk (which is why I won't upgrade my personal MacBook to it). Oh, and the new iTunes is crap too as Apple is wanting to push their new music store and making the old iTunes not work.
I see a trend here. Apple has become the new MicroSoft. Now we need a company to come along and operate like Apple use to.
