Hello there. I recently decided to get an iPhone over the nexus 6. My coworkers all have iPhones and I decided to test drive one while waiting to get an nexus 6.
Let me tell you. I am blown away. The first day I got my hands on the 6 plus in 'gold' I never picked up my now old G3. From the build quality to the beautiful screen this thing has despite the resolution difference.
Mind you I've been a android user since the g1, and I have never been so fascinated with a phone before.
my biggest concern was the settings menu, my ex had an iPhone and I would always make fun of how settings are so haphazardly placed, because with android you would have all your connectivity things in one spot, etc. but after getting used to iOS I have to say I feel Like a REAL power user I can control what fetches and uses location with android you would sometimes have things accessing location without even knowing!
Battery life is beautiful absolutel beautiful. I can goto work with a 100% charge and come home with 85%. Yes 15 percent over the course of 10 hours is amazing to me. I'm a pharmacy tech so there are times when there is nothing to do but browse the web or text.
Another honorable mention is how dam fast these things charge long gone are my days of turning off wifi data and location just to get a charge. I plug my phone in and even with Max brightness I'm gaining juice and this is just on a 1amp charger.
I want to go back to build quality. I think the only phone I've had that could compare to this was my htc one max. Despite it was mostly plastic. I use a case when I'm out and about but when I'm at home I sometimes like to take my phone out and feel the iPhone. How it just sits in your hand flush. The roundness of it how they contoured the glass so your fingers swipe across elegantly. It's beautiful. I admire this phone. It feels like I bought an infiniti after driving a Honda civic.
The software runs smooth. No janky touch wiz or bloat ware to make it fluffy . It's just efficient . Android also slows down and lags overtime.
Despite my g3s 2560x1440 resolution and clarity of its 519~ ppi on the same screen size as this I feel much more comfortable looking at this screen. Better colors too. I don't know why and despite being much larger and with with less phone real estate utilization the iPhone feels much more comfortable in hand.
Androids can never get hand ergonomics right and they're usuallly plastics. I could never truly deep down appreciate having one in my hand. I would sometimes get envious over those glass coated iPhone 4s and the aluminum 5s. But they were just too small for me.
Another note is I love how I can do so much more with only having One button!
I am honestly very happy that I atopped being a biased fanboy and gave Apple a chance I am thankful and proud of every penny I worked for to purchase this iPhone 6plus with. I can't afford many luxury things in life but this truly feels like something that was designed for the consumer in mind and worth the premium such a thing comes with. I accept the apple culture that be what it is now with open arms and feel regretful that I have ever talked down on it.
