The 6+ is rather large but I like it. Qfter the many reviews and the picture of two different iPhones bending in pockets after sitting, really turned me away. So I went with the 6 because I i keep my phones for 3-4 years lol. How do you like your 6?
Got a tip for us?

Ordered a 64GB 6 in the afternoon of the 15th from an AT&T Store with an estimated shipping date range of 10/14-11/3. Just got a shipment notification email and tracking says it's in Ft. Worth for overnight delivery.
I had a feeling those estimated dates were extremely conservative but I'm pleasantly surprised that ordering 3 days after pre-orders started will get me the phone 3-4 days after launch.

Im really hoping for that tracking number to show up at the latest on Wednesday. If not I'm going to Radio Shack. Really wanted to order thru Apple this year but the site and the app were not working at midnight

^^ This... it was a love fest for premier 6+'s yesterday. Very few people on here that weren't premier got shipping info.
Hopefully.. in the next few days us non premo customers will get shipping info.
Ditto same for this premier customer so much for anything with that status, still stuck at the damn 10/2 - 10/13 blackhole Sunday afternoon...

Well I didn't even try because I'm renewing through Next and Apple.com didn't give me that option. : /
Same for me, all the reviews and then trying it out in the store made me change my mind... Funny how we've all been obsessing and lost a week of our lives, only to turn around and get the 6 right from our local stores! LOL! Surprisingly, I really LOVE the 6! I thought the 4.7 screen would be too small, as I've been using the Note 3 and am a big fan of big screens, but the 6 screen doesn't seem small at all! It's this perfect combination of good screen size and easy one-handed use. It feels PERFECT in my hand and easy to hold, yet the screen offers a lot more visibility than the 5. I also set my screens on "Zoom," so all my home icons are big and fit the screen better, and all the text in my mail and messages is easier to see (I use to squint when I had my 5, lol!) The battery life is AMAZING, and the camera takes awesome pics - I was one of the few people who could never take a non-blurry pic on the iPhone 5, so I couldn't be happier! I read an article that said if you use your phone for gaming and watching movies/videos, then the 6+ makes more sense, but if you talk, text, email, and browse the web, the 6 is better for that kind of everyday use. I have an iPad and iMac and big ass TV, so if I want to watch a movie or video, those are what I use, rarely my phone unless it's a quick YouTube video. How about you? Are you happy with the 6, too? #

Time to stop drinking the Kool-Aid! # Go to your local stores or Apple online and see if you can get one. Also try out the 6+ in the store if you haven't alteady, there are a LOT of people who have opted for the 6 instead.

But the Kool-Aid is so yummy.
So I contacted ATT, they recommended going to a store. All the store could do was take the phone from me and place another order. Est. wait was 21-35 business days.
So the lady at the ATT store recommended keeping it and trying to get a credit from ATT.
So I did.
The credit?
$20.
ATT customer service has become a joke. I am debating returning the phone, waiting out my wife's last year and then moving on to someone else.
Apple has failed miserably with this launch. No one that ordered a 6+ form AT&T receive theirs on launch day. Not only that there was NO first come first serve basis. Completely wrong and anarchy. VOMIT.
Yea, it's designed that way so you keep on drinking, lol! I just hate seeing everyone who's still waiting so miserable! Someone suggested we all tweet to att about this debacle, and I agree. The fact that they kept us/still keeping people in the dark (drinking that Kool-Aid) is the worst part of this whole thing. It is completely unacceptable to get conflicting information everytime you call or check online... That was the killer for me. I never heard the same thing twice. Even today I called att to check my rate plan that I upgraded 2 days ago in the store, and she had NO RECORD OF MY CHANGES IN HER COMPUTER!! # Wtf? Seriously, WTF.
There is hope after all. Just refreshed and checked again; shipping with tracking number finally there.
Story is generally in line with everyone else's: pre-ordered as soon as I was able, around 2:30 AM central, received email confirmation about an hour later, original shipment date 10/31 to mid-November, gradually moved up to the infamous 10/2-10/13 dates, Premier customer, unable to cancel.
This has been the most frustrating opaque process possible. Never doing this again.

You're welcome to go somewhere else. They have what they have in their inventory.
If they had said "No iPhone 6+ preorders" you would have cried, too.
Got my order in around 9pm on the 12th for a 6 plus 128gb in space grey. Att site says It will ship 11/9-11/27! Surely blows!
You had me excited.. until I read "Premier customer"... has anyone who isn't a premo customer gotten a tracking number who had the 10/2-13 date? (6+ 64/128?)
Of course he got his phone... Why do you think he is fine with the way things are going?
Did anyone with a November ship date receive an update from att? I have not heard anything from them and ship date has not changed at all. Ordered the 6+ silver 128gb
What's weird is I got a text from att saying my order has been processed and has been sent to the warehouse for shipment but, when I call the order status number it says the items in my order are back ordered. :/
