Having had both the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus side-by-side to play around with for a few days, I've noticed that there's a noticeable difference between the two's home buttons:

- The iPhone 6's Home button felt a lot more clicky, firmer and tactile, whereas,

- The iPhone 6 Plus's home button feels very soft to press and doesn't make any 'clicky' noise or feel firm as firm as the iPhone 6's.

Just wondering if this is the same for you guys and how your home button feels to press.

Also, based on my previous iPhones, I've noticed that Home buttons tend to get 'softer' and less 'clicky' to press as time goes by. Personally, I prefer the a more tactile and clicky home button, but maybe I'm being too anal about it all. :|

On Friday I swapped my iPhone 6 from a 64gb model to a 128gb, and the first thing I noticed on the new model how much more firm the home button was, less clicky than my previous model.

Capacity is not a factor but after the swap I felt the difference between my previous iPhone 6 and my new one.

Hmmm, seems like most 6 Plus users are getting a nice and clicky home button, whereas mines just seems soft and cushiony. :(

Interesting to hear that you've experienced a difference between the same model iPhones. Seems like it's not consistent.
