No different to the Apple fanbois who praise this this me too device as revolutionary after the competition has been making 4.7 inch and 5.5 inch tablets for ages.
(I say tablets and not phones as these devices are really tablets).

I believe the site is called Engadget, NOT Endgadget.

You may have not had a CRASH, but if you're telling the truth; you saw MANY reloads.... THAT'S why we want more ram.
Just because Anand doesn't work at AnandTech anymore doesn't mean AnandTech won't do a thorough review.
Given the founder has moved to Apple, I can speculate some bias even in Anandtech's reviews. It would explain why Anandtech became very pro apple in recent times.
Its difficult to find very good non-bias reviews these days. I actually trust user reviews more. Come friday we will get some good feedback
That is very nice to know. They write some of my favourite reviews. Indepth and cut right through the ******** (most times) to get to the truth. This is one review I am waiting for.
I think we should take a step back for a moment to giggle at this.You're holding it wrong.Mine is coming.
Some of these reviews are all over the place when talking about battery life. i guess that goes to show how no two people use their phones alike.
Many of the reviewers also mentioned that these iPhones are the best smartphones period, which has me pretty excited for Friday.

It's a nice work but you should have made the hand look even smaller to make a point

Most don't know how insidious it really is.

I saw another user post this link then get banned.
It's really funny. Any review even slightly favorable towards Apple instantly means that the tech review site is biased.
Anand doesn't work at Anandtech any more and he was as non-biased as you can get in the tech world. He criticized Apple in areas he felt deserved criticism. As an example, read Anand's review of the first rMBP. He didn't like that the fact that Apple can seemingly influence Intel to drastically bump up the power of their integrated graphics but can't also influence makers to make user replaceable memory that would also fit in the rMBP.
Isn't it more likely that Apple has made great products in recent years and that they deserve praise, than to think the tech reviewers are biased?
I really doubt user reviews would change your mind more. They're more likely to be biased.
I don't think anyone is saying it is revolutionary because of the screen sizes! That's what fandroids would wan't you to believe! It's nothing revolutionary about screen sizes! Apple have been doing different sizes on different other products and these people who say Apple did copied screen size from the competition are ignorant. To be fair, Apple was doing fine with 4" and I think would have still continued to sell more then any single company if it kept the same screen size.
Except so many of the user reviews are shill reviews. It's impossible to know any more.
Had my Spigen 6 case turn up yesterday, size is perfect but wouldn't have liked it any bigger.
Roll on Friday
Roll on Friday
Oh no dubt it will get fixed in a future update, yet it just goes to show apple having the same issues as google when pushing so many pixels.

I don't think it's a fail, heck I ordered the 6 Plus and it's coming friday. I look forward to my giant phone
So... the iPhone 6 rocks around (on the camera) and it's better with a case, negating all the size savings. A leather case might feel pretty good though, other manufacturers have been making rubberized rear shells of a while now. The case solves the issue of the protruding camera and the unpleasant looking back of the phone I guess. Might have to try out that combo.
I didn't realize he 6+ screen was almost as big as the iPad mini. There's possible cannibalization there although the iPad mini is a lot cheaper. Personally I think of this when I see people make phone calls with their phablets:

This problem could very well be solved by talking into the Apple watch instead.
Dunno about the fitness apps though. A huge smartphone strapped to your arm while jogging is ridiculous...

SO if other do something simular to apple, they copy, if apple does the same it isnt copying?
What does it matter who copies who? Apple made once more a great phone, no doubt one of the best available why do you so desperatly want it to be unique and new and fresh ?
