You know, I didn't really like mine for the first few days....

But then something changed. The screen size seems normal to me now. I can't wait for all the apps to be updated!

Btw, Flipbelt came in, the 6+ fits even with my Spigen case on, albeit it looks like a snake swallowed something oversized lol. My Jaybirds are coming in tomorrow, perfect set up for my workouts! Yahoo!

Thoroughly enjoying my 6plus and using it so much more than I was when I had my 5. The big wow factor that still hasn't wore off is the HD screen. 5.5in. Is even big enough to really enjoy watching video. Everything is just vibrant and sharp. Been doing a lot more ebook reading on it as well.

Today I took it to a Festival and when unused was in my front pocket (comfortably) and it took not only awesome photos but also video. Shot a band and even the music sounded great and Despite a jerky hand the video played back very smoothly. Damn, I'm really impressed with this phone!

Nice to see so many people loving the 6+ .. I'm sure I will too if I ever get mine. I'm watching to see what cases people like too.. carry on :)

Spigen air cushion, if you want to display the back with a thing but fairly protective case!

I tried the 6 and wanting to find a reason to switch. But I couldn't do it. The 6 plus makes it a new experience. The 6 feels like it's annual update. Not that it's bad, just the plus give its a better experience. I don't know if I can go back to a smaller screen. Even if it means me using two hands at times. The trade off is worth it, at least to me.

I love mine! I'm 5'6" and have small hands and I don't have problems using it one handed. I used my boyfriend's 4S today and I couldn't believe how small it felt/looked!!!

Here's another happy 6+ owner. I have the space gray 64 GB with the product red leather case on it. :)

I have the space gray/red leather case combo also! The space gray with the black front is sooo sexy. :cool:

Another one who looooooooooves her 6+ phone! I'll also add that I have small hands, hahaha. This is my first iPhone and for all of the previous iterations, I believe I jumped over at the right time. I already owned an iPad and a MacBook Pro, so now I feel "complete".

1) The battery life is AMAZING!
2) Beautiful, beautiful screen
3) This camera takes great pics. I mean really great pics and I love taking pics. I had a Canon camera with IS and I loved having that feature. I had shaky hands taking pics earlier today and not one pic came out blurry.
4) iOS makes sense and there's no random bloatware killing my battery life.
5) While I still prefer my iPad to read books on, this screen is big enough to look at books during travel and I don't have to carry my iPad with me for travel on the plane or waiting in the airport. Just the 6+ and my laptop for when I reach the hotel.
6) I feel like I have a mini mini-iPad with me and I don't have to pay for an extra device and data on my cellular service now. - No need to search for wifi and saving money!
7) I have a stronger right hand and pinkie finger, lol. Seriously, it took a couple of days to get over the hand fatigue, but I'm good now!
8) More cool features that are more so related to iOS and moving from Android.

Yep, love this phone! It's not going back anywhere.

I love this thing so much. I noticed a small tiny scratch on the screen earlier today and wanted to vomit. There are not words for how much I love this phone. I've been waiting since the four for them to make a bigger phone. I took my 5S out yesterday to take it in for trade in and couldn't believe how tiny it felt compared to the 6+ I don't know how I used such a small phone for so long.

Loving my 6+ 128 Silver. The big beautiful screen, the amazing videos, just wonderful. The problem is that I am now spoiled. When I look at my 5s I can't believe that I used a phone so small. Even the 6 looks so small. Once you go big there is no turning back!!

Wow, so far no whiners, trolls or complainers. Hope I didn't speak too soon. :cool:

I really love mine. It's an awesome phone.

Though I have been babying it. Have a week to decide if I will keep it, my biggest concern is that I doubt it's strong enough to remain in my front pocket on a daily basis .

If it was on par with my 5s for durability, I would not even think twice keeping it.

I've been treating mine exactly the same as I did my 5 and see no indication that it's less durable in any way.

I like it a lot actually. At first I wasn't sure. I thought I would get too many stares because I work in the corporate world. It's actually a nice pop of color against the black face. DetroitBORG has a YouTube video showing all the leather iPhone 6 cases and he puts them on the phone. His personal favorite is the Product Red so he showcases that one a lot in the video. My only concern is the bright color leather tends to patina fast and look old. I'm still contemplating whether or not I should change it to the dark blue or black.

Thanks! I think I will get the Red.

The screen is just incredible. Even not considering the size or resolution, it's just a flat out gorgeous display. With the incredibly thin glass it feels like your really touching the content. When you look at it from an angle there really is no percievable gap between the screen and surface.

Absolutely love the 6 Plus. I do not miss my iPhone 5 although I have unlocked to have it as my travel phone while in Europe. I have been carrying the phone in my jeans pocket as well as work suit pants no problems whatsoever!!! Battery life has been about 8 hours as a power user not too bad

I flippin' love my 6 plus. My case came in the other day (Spigen) and that case is super. So minimal and has a great feel in hand. With the Spigen case on it, it is JUST about as thick as a naked iPhone 5...maybe thinner still.

The iPhone 6 Plus is absolutely gorgeous. I truly realized how much more I could do with it compared to my 5 when I took a couple slow-motion videos with my friends and instantly made them into a nice movie in iMovie...it's just so much more free to navigate around. The display is stunning and I'm loving my phone right now!

It's just so annoying when people hate on me for getting the Plus. Hello?? I honestly don't care that you think the screen is "STUPID BIG" or "why would you even get a phone that big" because I live by my philosophy: go all in or go home. People teasing us for getting a bigger phone need to understand it's not their phone and they can do whatever they want. I've made a decision to get the Plus.

Just don't understand the hate. But hey, we know just how damn awesome this phone is ^_^

I absolutely love my 6+! I've always loved big screen phones but hated the android OS. I would always switch back to an iPhone but hated how small the screen was. Now I have the best of both worlds and couldn't be any happier! :D
