This is Apple. I'm thinking on screen virtual Touch ID.
IMO, the thickness of the phone should be measured at the thickest part, the camera bezel.
To be honest I don't find it bad that apple still has a home button, mainly because at least you know the true screen size, as apposed to my nexus which says its a 5 inch screen but a bit of it is actually taken over by the software keys. The problem is the top bezel is huge for not apparent reason other than "artistic" consistency.
----------
In practical terms though your never going to be touching the camera bezel, your holding the phones body not the cameras body, therefore the bodies thickness matters most.

"I'm to sexy for my shirt"
lol.....
Sorry ....couldn't resist.
This is like the battle for more power... a whole 2 days ?
Under heavy use i guess, but u know what.. I leave my 5s in standby most of the time, and it lasts 5 days....
Solution ?Just cut down on the whole yakety-yak-yak... .. surfing, social networking etc... and any smart phone will last longer than 2 days.
(The Jedi knights are really gonna feel this one.)

I just prefer having the black face versus white. I don't like seeing the border on the white if I'm watching something whereas the black disappears to me. White is very elegant looking, I just like the black one.
The problem is you only think to pay with nfc but it has other applications as well.
Again I doubt we will be seeing any large improvement over the already existing systems, certainly world wide.

Ditto. I hate white smartphones and tablets with a passion. The screen looks more crisp with a black border.
I couldn’t decide between the 6 or 6 Plus when I was placing my pre order so I pre ordered them both with a view of sending one back.
After having a play around with them both with the things I use my iPhone for, I found the 6 Plus was better for me.
I opened the 6 first of all and my first impression was that I was a bit underwhelmed with the size of the screen. Moving from the 5s, it was only a tad more than half inch larger screen, and I was wanting a larger screen that I would notice, but feared the 6 Plus might have been not right for me, hence pre ordering both model.
I then opened the 6 Plus and my first impression was, its big. But after playing around with it for 10 minutes I didn’t find an issue with the size.
Playing games, using Safari, typing, I found the 6 Plus was better for me. Comparing the keyboard/keys size, side by side on the 5s, 6, 6 Plus. I found very little difference in the size of the keys between the 5s and the 6, whereas with the 6 Plus the keys were noticeable larger. And as I type a lot on my iPhone, the larger keys, keyboard are important for me. Also playing a landscape game such as Asphalt was a better experience on the 6 Plus.
One surprise, I was thinking that the 6 Plus might be awkward/uncomfortable to hold. But I find the opposite, I think the way Apple have designed them, with them been thin and rounded edges, this makes the iPhone easy/comfortable to hold. Also I find the large size of the 6 Plus makes me feel safer holding the iPhone over the smaller iPhones I owned previously, the larger size gives me more to grip and I feel a lot less likely to drop it (if that makes sense). Obviously the 6 Plus is not going to be a smartphone that can be used one handed, but I never used my previous iPhone’s one handed so I’m not bothered about this. Also, the 6 Plus fits in my jeans pocket quite comfortable, and isn't uncomfortably due to it been thin.
I must admit, I used to think “5 inch + smartphones, whats the point in them” but after using one for a few days I wouldn’t want to move back to a smaller one again.
I’m pleased I did what I did pre ordering the 6 and 6 Plus, it helped me make my choice a lot easier.
