128GB iP6 vs 64GB iP6+?

i think the 6 is a better phone. but i like different. so if i was in that position now i probably would go the 6 plus.
 
I have a 6 Plus and an iPad Mini 2, and if given the choice I reach for my Mini rather than my 6 Plus. I don't carry my Mini with me outside the home, so it's just around the house the iPad gets used more.

A Mini is closer in size to a 6 Plus than an Air, so you're probably all the more likely to reach for your iPad if given the choice, so no I don't think a 6 Plus will make you use your iPad less.

TBO, I don't know how strong it is. But from my feeling, I know it's impossible to bend it inside my pocket. And I have confident that my 6+ can survive if I accidentally drop it on the ground.

IMO, this case is not build for extereme protection, but a good balance between protection, design, hand grab, etc.

If only consider the case's structural strength, I will give it at least 80 out of 100. It's possible to break it, but I don't think that will happen under normal situation.

Ah okay, thanks for that. 🙂

Good information coming from someone who has the 6+ and Mini. ::thumbs up::

Why do you think the 6 is a better phone necessarily?

I think it's better because for the few hardware advantages the Plus has, the 6 trumps it because it's more portable and packaged for ease of use. That's just my personal opinion though. Better for one person is not always better for everyone and it works both ways.

Would the fact that I have an iPad Air make my decision lean more towards the 6 than the 6+? In other words, would I underuse the iPad Air if I owned such a large device?

Depends on your usage and preferences, really.

For me, not at all. I much prefer my 9.7" iPads over the 6 Plus particularly for web browsing which is my most common usage.
 
iPhone 6. I'm about 10gb from filling my 128gb, I keep all my music on it but use iCloud photos and stream videos when I can. It's surprising how quickly it can fill.

I'd go for the 6+ for it's camera stabilisation, but I found it way too big to carry in my pocket.

I think as a 'phone' it is more wieldy. The iPhone 6 plus' screen doesn't increase its function in comparison to the 6, but trades away portability and one handed usability. Both, to me, are quite necessary functions on a 'phone'.
In saying that, I'm a tech geek and I view a 'phone' as a 'toy' as well.
battery life doesnt concern me too much, I always end up putting my phone on the night stand at the end of the work day with juice left.
 
I now have my 6+ and my 5s has my work sim in it. No way I could use a smaller screen for my main phone anymore. I'd probably figure out how to get by on 32 gb if I had to to have a bigger screen.

How so ? And, if it really is, why not have it replaced at the Apple store ( unless, you've had it replaced and the new unit is just as bad ? )

I get random freezing , where the phone will not respond between 10-20 seconds. Just google iPhone 6 freezing, quite a few threads.

Going back for another appointment at Apple Store this week.
