Any women with the 6 Plus?

Eileen89 said:
No, but I put a Glass screen protector on my 6 Plus right out of the box.

I love the FlipBelt. Makes exercising with the 6 Plus much easier.

Here's a picture of the FB with my 6 Plus inside for those who are curious about the fit. :)

Petite female here.

I use it as a portfolio display on-the-go, networking instead of my huge 2nd gen iPad.

Movies on it are awesome in bed and especially at the gym. I used to bring my iPad to the gym.

I didn't love it until I took pics with it and OMG. Even my DSLR is getting dusty now. The details are amazing (for a phone cam).

I usually use bluetooth when on the phone, so holding it to my ear is a non-factor.

I feel less secure as a small female in NYC. The 5S was easy to grip well and hold securely. This protrudes from my tiny hands, making it an easier snatch. But pre-version 6, crooks were beating up people who resisted giving up their phones. So I'm not sure that the size matters as much as the value of iPhones.

It took 3 days to grow on me, but now I love it. I also usually carry a backpack or bag large enough to hold it. Plus, it's harder to sit down and lose :)

Which bluetooth are you using?
Am looking for one as well
Thanks
 
I LOVE my LG Tones! I wear them everyday all day! I can keep my phone tucked away while listening to my music. When a call comes in, the headset will announce the number and you can answer it without using your phone if you please. The caller can hear you loud and strong and you can summons Siri for call assistance as well. Well worth the cost of $69. Don't waste your money with the knock off versions, as they aren't nearly as good.

I have these. I like them enough but using them for longer runs or cardio at the gym is annoying because they move and get unbalanced on my neck.

For calls I like my Blue Ant better - calls sound better than on my phone both to me & the caller. You can make & receive calls from the headset & calls are announced etc. it's very comfortable too.
 
Me! I'm a 5'6", young and petite chick and I'd say the 6+ is the way to go! I received my Silver 128 GB 6+ almost 9 days ago and it is definitely sexy. I am not on top of having the newest phone as I've always been simple and upgraded from my Heisenberg blue 4s and said, "Hell, if I'm going to finally upgrade, I might as well go BIG." Plus, I'm a Texan, so everything is bigger in Texas. I still own my 4s, and the original iPhone launched in 2007 for sentimental value. So, get the 6+!!!! Silver is a classy color, too. ;)

It's sexy? Does it provoke sexual interest and arousal? :confused:
 
I was going to start a new thread but this thread seems like a suitable place to ask:

I have two teenage daughters who both now have hand-me-down iPhone 5Ss. As most teenage girls do, they carry them in their back pockets most of the time.

Down the road, when it's time to replace them, I'm wondering what to do. Does anybody carry a 6 in their back pocket, or have a daughter who does? There are so many kids with 5/5C/5Ss at my daughter's schools... The bigger phones aren't really suitable for back pockets are they?

I would never put my 6+ in my back pocket or the 6 either. I think if you sit on either of these, bad things will happen. They'll have to go with another option if they want to store it there, or just keep their 5S - who knows what apple will have available by then.

Hey, also, for those who are in search of an inexpensive crossbody bag that offers a soft, padded pocket for the 6 Plus, there is a nice option at REI--it has a separate padded pocket for your phone, lined with a silky material, and another section which holds cash, credit cards, small pack of tissues, etc. Comes in black, pink and green, and retails for $22.50. The crossbody strap is also completely removable, if you want to use it as a wristlet or in a larger purse:

Got my black one today! I really like the crossbody strap so my hands can be free. I can fit my phone with Apple leather case in the wallet part, and put something else in the main compartment, too. Wish it had more card pockets, but that's not a big deal. I like that I can toss this in my big work tote, and when I make stops for grocery etc. I can grab it and leave the big bag in the car. Also on weekends I just take it out of my work bag and I'm good to go! I was looking at some Baggallini small crossbody bags, but this is much less expensive. Thanks again kgenova for the info!

Glad you like it! I feel very comfortable with mine. I particularly like the fact that the phone is in a completely separate pocket from everything else, and that it is so nicely padded.

I put mine in my back pocket all the time.

Haven't sat on it yet. I just pull it out as I'm sitting down. If I'm doing something out and about that requires a good deal of getting up and down, I put it in my purse.

I always kept my iPhones in my front pocket until the 6 plus. It really doesn't fit into girly pockets.

Other than the switch in pocket placement, I use it like I did every other version of the iPhone.

I am considering upgrading from my 5, to the 6 Plus...possibly.
I am reading so many threads from men who say it is too big of a phone and it's awkward and I don't want to make the wrong decision.

Hi! I'm 4'11" and as such have tiny child-sized hands, and I LOVE my Plus. Do it!
 
Imory said:
Being around women with a 6+ is a sure thing then.

Do you find yourself always using both hands to use it?
Click to expand...

Pretty much, I know you arent asking me but I have a Plus, I basically use it two handed now 90% of the time
 
I didn't personally go with a 6+...in the end, it was too big for me. But I did find a case and wristlet for my 6 that also come in 6+ size--and thought the ladies here might appreciate them:

Akna Retro Floral case (I bought the Vintage Blue and absolutely love it!): http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00OUCU9W8/ref=cm_sw_su_dp

Caseen wallet/wristlet (get the Medium for 6, Large for 6+): http://amzn.com/B00HAUCH1S

The wristlet isn't big (not a small clutch purse, more case sized); I have the Medium and it basically holds the phone, four cards, a couple of bills, and a little change--it's not big enough for my keys, for example, but instead of coins in the zippered pocket, I can fit my earbuds without a problem. The bright pink and black one is REALLY bright; you won't lose this thing in the base of a large purse or backpack! I've been carrying it everywhere instead of a wallet for a few weeks now with my iPhone 5 and it's holding up very well. The 6 fits perfectly in the Medium even with a slim case, reviews for the Large indicate the same for the 6+, so I'd say it's a decent inexpensive option.

The floral case is a simple hard plastic snap on, with a grippy finish on the back that makes the phone very easy to hold. It's just thick enough that it's about the same depth as the camera, so the phone lies flat on a table. There's a front lip, but it is so tiny, I wouldn't change count on it for protection if you put your phone face down. Like most slim cases, this one is probably more for scratches than drop protection. But it's pretty. :D

I am sure you'll start carrying it in the baby bag. My purse carrying days went on hiatus until I stopped carrying the baby bag.
Maybe you can get a wristlet or wallet to tuck in there.

Anyone purchased a clear case? Which ones?

Really love this case!!!! How is the quality and how is it holding up? The plastic cracking at all??
Click to expand...

The quality is great! It's a hard plastic. So far the etching hasn't scuffed or peeled. Just be mindful that this not an Otterbox-level protective case. It will protect from scratches on the back, but drops will be a different story. I alternate cases (I have way too many now) every so often, so it's not on all the time. It's definitely one of my favorites either way.
 
Mine arrived today but the nano sim is on its way; I totally forgot about that vital component#. So I can only power on & marvel @ the screen, it's amazing!

I slapped on a Spigen glass screen protector & in the interim a Spigen slim fit thin case , whilst awaiting the leather Vaja Grip case from Argentina#

As for the size , 'am 5' 9 hence its not that big for me
 
Loving the IPhone 6+ and the Coach Zippy I found at the Coach Outlet store thanks to this thread.

My only problem is my case, it really weighs it down. Any recommendations for a lightweight case that's comfortable to hold, provides grip and protection.
 
I was scheduled for delivery of my + Dec 15th but just found it's coming in two days!
That's fantastic BUT I thought I had plenty of time to get a case and cover! My Coach zippy hasn't even arrived yet!

HELP...should I get the original air jacket in clear or clear matte for gold? Also should I get Simplesnap or Mime Feather glass?

Thanks!
 
The Air Jacket really fits the iPhone 6 Plus well -- almost TOO well! I like to be able to swap various cases on-and-off my iPhone and while I really like the look and feel of the Air Jacket Clear on my Space Grey iPhone 6 +, I found it very difficult to get back off the phone when a few days later I wanted to put another case on. I was genuinely afraid that I would damage either the phone or the Air Jacket when trying to get the thing off, but thankfully I finally was able to remove it and everything was fine. I have not put it back on the iPhone since and I am not sure that I will......
