After several months with both iPhone 6 and 6 plus, I've concluded...

[Shirasaki]

Hrrmmm. So, no offensive words, just superior and intolerant personal opinions that leave no room for dissent?

I guess that's better.

Well, yes. This makes the discussion contents more, uh, reliable and trustworthy. Cause everything is based on known information, not some news coming from whether known or unknown source.
But, we are not writing essay, or even dissertation. It doesn't really matter whether your information source is trust or not. Well.

But... But.... It's not available in black!?! The horror! Are you sure you can put up with it? Sure you're not going to return it for the iPhone 5?

LOL!

I was wondering how long it was going to take to be called on that!

I'll just state here…I STILL don't like the Space Gray. And the bands still drive me nuts. But I decided that since I was stuck on Sprint I was going to get a new phone out of them.

Unfortunately…all there is is Space Gray

 

[eyoungren]

I prefer neon green

That's an Apple iPhone bumper color.

There is no way I would pick the 6 over the 6+.

The 6+ has to be one of the best gadgets ever made.

I am a long distance big rig driver (And Blueman) and I really don't know how I could live without it.

I agree. The 6 plus is one of the best gadgets ever made. However, it feels to me as though the hardware that powers it was designed for the 6 first, and just up scaled, which is why the plus sometimes hiccups.

But that said, I think the 6 plus bridges the gap beautifully between the portability of iPhone, and the usefulness of a mac. since owning the plus, my iPad saw little to no use. The plus is far easier to carry around whist working than my iPad, because I can drop it in my pocket when I need both hands.

If I ever need to do some serious paperwork that requires a bigger screen, I have a MacBook Air.

The plus effectively killed off my need for an iPad, because I primarily used my iPad for work.

It's very simple why people choose the 6 over the 6+. There's a reason why they breakdown of the models is close to 2 to 1. It's not for everybody.

I'm not dogging the 6+ it's a good device, but there are a few performance issues on it. It does lag more then the regular 6. I chose the iPhone 6 because it fits my needs much better then that of the 6+. I will never own a phablet. That's what the 6+ is... The same kind of
Phone that  people used to dog on Samsung about. Again I'm not dogging on the 6+, but to say there's no reason to choose the 6 over the 6+ is a little absurd. Had  used the A8X and put 2GB Of RAM in the 6+ ... Then I would have gotten it... And I myself would now be a little but hypocritical

IPhone 6 Plus has a really large screen, so it is capable of running apps in a more gorgeous view, if app developer uses it well.
However, this phone cannot completely replace iPad, since iPhone can never be designed with the screen size equal or slightly smaller than iPad. I tried, but to be honest, fail. IPhone screen is still small when reading text, except those which have a good zoom in ratio by default. IPad does not have such issue, because I can read everything on that large display.
Talking about constant scaling down, I notice that when I take several screenshots and see it on computer. Specifically, the property of screenshot files. I see an unusual screenshot resolution numbers. Not 1080P, but 2000 let approximate by 1300 approximate. I forgot the exact number, however.

Ive got both 6 (business) and 6 plus (personal).

If I had to choose just one, it would be the 6. The 6 plus can be a bit awkward at times, as I need to be able to use my phone 1 handed while working. If the 6 plus didn't have those damn big bezels, I think it would be another story.

 

[hkaur895]

I have a iPhone 5 so I don't really know how the 6 or 6+ work although I like larger phones that's why the 6+ would be perfect for me

Bezels are inevitable, if you want to let your device works longer than expected. Also, design a phone with necessary structure strength and durability, and keep those structures into the minimum requirement, is an extremely difficult task.
Maybe the phone you need, is something might exist in the future.

I prefer iPhone 6 Plus with the bigger screen for my poor old eyes and longer usage times.

I've used the iPhone 6 too but came from using an iPhone 5s so personally I didn't see it as much of an upgrade. I buy my iPhone's from my local  store so pay full price.

I love big screen phone also because my eye us poor to see small things. I don't use zoom in feature because this will turn iPhone 6 Plus interface to iPhone 6.
I also buy this phone from local store. So full price. I don't have that money to replace my phone frequently, except completely broken or stolen.

I initially ordered my iPhone 6 Plus through Apple online and had buyer's remorse before I even got my phone. I kept worrying it would be too big for me. When I got it, it took only two days to get comfortable with the size. I keep mine in a purse so carrying or figuring out where to put it is not a problem for me.

In spite of all the initial bugginess and glitches at the release, this is my all time favorite phone. Usually the newness wears off in a couple of months but not so for me with the Plus. I've had the Plus since October and I still am exited to use it.

I use the Plus constantly. When I got my first iPhone and then iPad, my MacBook Pro started collecting dust. Now my iPad sits idle most of the time. It gets a charge maybe once every two weeks. I use my phone for everything now. Just so much easier to pick up and go and take care of anything on the fly. Absolutely love the Plus.

I completely agree. Awesome device all the way around.

The same discussion keeps on coming up over and over. It's like people trying to discuss if blue is better than red.

Purple is better, obviously.

I see what you did there.

Haha! I have to say I agree with you regarding the antenna-bands. They do look awful and I doubt I'll ever get used to them. Either way congrats on your new phone!

6 Plus for battery. camera, and landscape mode. (I feel like I made this same post almost a year ago now)

 

[Alp3r]

I had a 6 until someone decided to steal it. Loved it

Some junkie stole my iPhone 6 plus after 12 days of the launch, I had to pay for the fees that the contract was in and now the cops are trying to set a court date so I'm stuck with this laggy 5C until something new comes out.

the 6 plus was getting difficult & annoying, taking it in and out of my pocket cautiously was also frustrating (didn't want it to bend), using it with one hand is horrible.
I wanted to downgrade to the 6 thank god I didn't because my dad end up buying one and I saw the difference with camera picture quality when u zoom in (it was awkward), the battery life is average for its size but amazing to use with one hand, I'd say its actually not worth it. So I miss my 6 Plus
