I say everybody wants the 6 plus because everybody would want the new camera features and battery life. The only thing holding back people who bought the 6 is the size of the plus.

OIS on top of EIS will be helpful in only the most minimal of situations. I don't consider this a big plus for the Plus over the 6.
Battery life may or may not be significant between the two phones considering the Plus has to power a million addition pixels. Gotta wait for the phones to see how the battery life fairs in real life.

In my case, neither one of these were factors in my decision to get the 6. I owned a Lumia 1520, so I already know the 6+ is a PIA to use one handed and carry around, much less use in a car mount.
 
People are forgetting the plus runs in 3x mode, so all graphics take up 2.25x more memory. So yes it will have 2gb of ram, it will need it just to be equivalent of the 6.

With the CPU and GPU not getting much faster, the 6+ is probably going to run less smooth and with longer load times than the 5s, let alone the 6.

The 6+ has to push 2.7million pixels, the 6 1million, the 5s 0.7m, all with similair GPU/CPU.

I predict a lot if disappointed plus owners - they had better be buying only for the large screen.

Come on, like the 500+ engineers at Apple didn't think this through. I don't think a billion dollar company, especially Apple, are going to push out the 6+ with less smooth performance.

The first 13" rMBP wasn't powerful enough for the display.
 
I printed out the faceplate and made a mockup with cardboard. I actually found it surprisingly easy to hold, and it fit fine in almost all my pockets: cargo shorts, suit jacket, gym shorts, and blue jeans. The blue jeans were a mixed bag though. While it fit completely in the pocket fine (with room to spare), sitting down with it in that pocket was awkward. It doesn't flex so it's kind of jabbing you, and is not easy to get int/out while you are sitting. Decided I was just going to live with it (I wear a lot of shorts anyway), but it's a legitimate concern.
 
The 6+ models fit just fine in my pockets of all types (jeans and basketball shorts). Looking forward to getting my 6+ on Friday.
 
Haters.....

You'd be surprised to hear that sometimes investors and shareholders have a louder voice than engineers!!!
