Case came - so glad I got the 6 instead of the 6+

Thanks for the opinion!
I am lucky in that my husband is not eligible for upgrade until 10/2, and he wants the Plus. So I ordered the Plus, and if I hate it, when it comes time to order his new phone I will order the 6 and then get AT&T to swap our sim cards for us! I was afraid that if I didn't order the 6Plus, and he did, that I would be jealous later on! I rarely use my phone to talk - mostly surfing and texting and a few games.
 
I don't like the added thickness of any case. So I got the spigen air skin, to protect from any scratches until bestskinsever comes out with the iphone 6 version.
 
Went with 6

I was really debating which size to purchase so I decided to order a case for each one from Spigen, just to have something.

Once I saw the size of the case for the 6+, my decision was easy.

I couldn't believe how tall the 6+ is. It is taller than my wife's Note 3 yet has a smaller diagonal screen size.

The difference is bit the bottom of the phone due to the size of the home button.

Hey bro thanks for your service. I also ordered a 6 didn't think twice. But with a double tap the screen comes down so you don't have to reach on the 6plus

More wear and tear for that poor, abused home button.
 
Yes, that's the gunmetal. It has a warmer color than I expected. Should look fine with the black front, but the silver may look better.
 
I need to maybe get this case. Bought a Best Skins Ever full body skin and wonder if it would work with this case. I know the specs are tight, though.

My Spigen Neo Hybrid case came. It's a very thin case with a slight lip, but it's not much bigger than the phone.

Two things are very apparent:

1) These phones are crazy thin. The case, with the lip, is crazy thin (barely thicker than the 5S bare).

2) I'm so glad I preordered the 6 instead of the 6+. I should just be able to reach the upper left corner if I stretch on the 6. If this were the 6+, not only would I have trouble reaching a lot of the screen, putting this case in my front pocket, I have just enough room to sit without torquing the frame of the case/phone. With the 6+, I'd probably bend the sucker within a few days.

Food for thought for people still debating.

Post a photo of it in-hand to see and get an idea as to 6 size.

Yeah good choice....worse camera, worse resolution, less ppi, worse battery life. Case closed indeed

I agree with this. The 4.7" is disappointing, but at least it has the same processor and casing. Too bad about the resolution :( I wish they offered a 5.0", but I went with the 5.5".
