I think they look great, but they are both still too expensive in my opinion. I will probably go with a new Moto X, but I think I would prefer an iPhone 6, but not for the $150 price premium. But we will see. They can make up the difference in value with iOS 8, mobile payments, etc.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!
This is the biggest MacRumors forum fail since those ridiculous "the iPhone 5 will be called iPhone 6!" posts
Where are now all the savants who said that OF COURSE the iPhone 6 with 5.5 inches would never exist?
I believe there were wagers exchanged between members on that matter; some with multiple zeroes. No welching folks!
No number of hype can hide the fact that in design terms this is a huge fail. They are so incredibly ugly on the back.
What on earth made them think this look is a good idea?
They might be easy to use and have a lovely screen but ugly is ugly. No getting around it. The first ugly Apple product! Come back Steve!!!
So stunned even though we saw the leaks one kept hoping maybe, just maybe the rumours were wrong. But no. It is true. Apple is now ugly. I have no interest in the watch... That's for the fanboys who have to have everything. The watch looks pretty but what would one do with it that you can't do with your phone?
Perhaps time to think outside the apple...?

So in other words, the exact same reaction as every other keynote Apple has ever done.
Most likely they will keep the current 5S around for another year or so. And then who knows, I predict they might consider releasing an iPhone 6 Minus (aka small). Since the standard now is iPhone 6, and the biggie is the 6 Plus. So maybe the future "small-screen (5S-sized)" will be called the iPhone 6 Minus coming in 2015?
seriously, Steve is turning over in his grave today.
What a load of bollocks, very similar styling to original iphone
I was watching it and I'm sorry but I got bored. I though I would buy first day, now I'm not even sure. 320 ppi? Basically the same battery? Damn, 50% less energy for a8 and still dead battery? Oh, of course, it's so slim now that the camera ring is protruding. Nice ..... I wanna see that camera after 3 months without a cover. Sapphire or diamond, it will be nasty. And then U2? Damn. My girlfriend liked the watch though. Oh, btw, what a messy stream. Interrupting, no audio etc etc. weak.
No it isn't.. The original iphone was truly innovative design at that time and the back was curved and sleek... Not marred by stupid white thick lines and protruding cameras. The first iphone whilst of course now dated was 100 times better as a design than this piece of rubbish.
I'm sorry but this is sad. Same look same home button. Same everything. Nothing innovative but gimmicks since the iPhone 4. And the 6 isn't even 1080p I was hoping to come back from my nexus 5 but this is unimpressive in every aspect.
Not to mention apple.com says 50x faster than the first iPhone. Wow good advertising. It should be cause that's 6 phones ago. I feel bad for Steve Jobs hard work in the past he would be rolling in his grave.

Now where is that tool who guaranteed there would be no 5.5-inch iPhone 6?
Sorry for the 4.7-inch prospective buyers though. They've definitely placed 6+ as the high end/high specs.
Super chuffed for the 5.5-inch 400+ PPI screen! The 19th can't come soon enough, I almost want to buy two.

Outwaited Apple with a 4S until 128GB showed up.
Finally!
Weak however that it only starts at 16GB .
Should be 32 64 128
It's not a disappointment cause nobody know what they want. It is when we see it we say "hey, that's it"! So , no disappointment, just not impressive I guess
