I know carrying a battery pack might be a PITA but if one really prefers the smaller Iphone then why not if battery life is an issue. It isn't like the pack is large and expensive so why not, just charge it the previous night.

I have an Anker, lol I never used it but since it was so cheap I figured I might as well.
 
That isn't contracting at all.

My point is that whether you have the 6+ battery life, or the 6 battery life, it doesn't matter, because no matter which phone you have, you will learn to never let your phone die.

Whether you have the 4 battery life, the 4s battery life, the 5 battery life, or the 5s battery life. If you don't want your phone to die, it won't.

So the idea of choosing the 6+ because it has a longer battery life is frivolous & meaningless. I'm more than positive that I can keep my iPhone 6 powered on just as long, or even longer then someone else's 6+.
I know. If I were Apple, I wouldn't even bother putting a battery in it. We could all just learn to be by a charger all the time.

right! or if Apple were smart, they should just use the electrical currents that run through our bodies to power the phone. It would literally never not be charged yo.

I'm going to send Apple an email. Excuse me. (Don't steal my idea)

By your logic, Apple already have that feature in your phone. It's battery already will never go flat when you won't ever turn the phone on.

You are right, it was not contradictory, just pure nonsense.

How much better is the plus battery? Making the jump from Android and trying to decide on the plus vs regular. Have the Note 3 now and it is a bit unwieldy at times, but have used it for two years no problem.

6 plus is definitely better than note 4. And so huge difference in compare with regular 6.

Vs Note 4 its better Mainly because no amoled, no big wakelocks and lower resolution. What I like the most about ios it s consistency in battery life. So 6 is also good if you know it s limits. When you browse a lot and call 1 hour and more a day, you will probably charge it twice a day.
 
Thanks, but was just asking real life use of a 6 vs 6+ and how much battery difference is noticed? I use a 6400mAh battery on my Note now so it lasts 2 days.

Twice as good easily. Mine lasts a full day with fairly heavy use and plenty to spare when plugging it in at night.
 
No chance after having a 6 and being done with battery by 5pm most days. This wasn't even after much usage. I often found that if I had average or poor reception (like in buildings), the battery would just empty.

I'd probably use it an hour commuting, a bit at lunch and it would die on the way home. Things only got worse when I hooked up the Apple Watch.

Not having fast charge was a pain, as was the low resolution when reading in particular as well as being a scroll fest on the small screen.

Sure the size was convenient but I don't care much for a small phone if I can't use it.
 
i am also going from 6 Plus to a 6s .

i find the smaller offering to be more elegant .

Plus seems oafy, if you will .
