I'm interested to know how many people switched to what model, and how they felt. My 2 year rebate is coming in a few days and i'm still on the fence to which model to get.
 
I'm a restless soul. I got the 6 on launch day, sold it and got a 6+ in December and now I'm starting to think I might go back to the 6.

I love both phones and really have a use case for both depending on what day (even time of day) it is.

Sorry that wasn't more helpful, but you're going to get lots of valid reasons to get both phones in this thread.
 
You should include the categories- purchased the 6/6+ to begin with and am satisfied with it now, just to have all results on one poll.
 
Got a 6 on launch day and switched to the plus after about a month. Love it and won't be switching back.
 
On one hand, i'd like the 6, because the smaller size is better as it's with me when I cycle, or go to the gym.

On the other hand, i'd really like the 6 plus because of the big screen. I do not have a tablet, so the 6 plus would kind of make up for that.
 
The 6 is big enough to meet my needs of screen real estate. The 6+ is too big for me to use one handed, which I can still do on the 6. That's why I switched and I'm glad I did.
 
I got the 6 on launch day. Switched t for the 6 plus. After several months with that I grew tired of the size just recently switched back to the 6. The 6 works better for me.
 
I switched to the 6 plus and I love it. The battery lasts forever. Sure it being big is a downside, but I couldn't reach the entire screen of the 6 anyway, so I didn't see it as a big deal. The added battery life and screen size was plenty worth it.
 
Bought the 6 in October but switched to the 6 Plus at the end of December. Mostly satisfied with the 6 Plus mainly because of the seemingly everlasting battery life. But somewhat disappointed in its performance compared to the 6.
 
I bought a 6 Plus at launch and still love it.

About a third of the iPhone 6 owners I know (admittedly not a massive sample size, maybe 10-15), however, conceded that if they were to buy the phone again, they'd go for the 6 Plus. None of them have actually gone to the trouble of selling their 6 to buy one though.
 
Bought the 6 from pre order online, then upgraded my husband and got a plus and him my 6 -two days later thought the plus was too big and returned it - now I want the plus back but not enough to sell my 6 for one
