How many are actually keeping their 6 plus for sure?

Actually just got my 6 Plus exchanged for a 6. Now the 6 feels really small and battery is draining faster than I'm used to with the Plus. I struggled to keep the phone in my pocket though.
 
I used the 6 for four days, it is a great phone no doubt. But I finally got my 6+ yesterday, and there is no going back. Both are great phones, but the 6+ Is a better experience for me. My 6 will be going back. (Keep in mind, my last phone was a note 3, so I'm already used to the size)

Battery life is legit. Probably about 25-30% better than I was getting on the regular 6. But that screen...
 
Keeping mine. Anything under 5" is too small for my taste. The 6 Plus has brought me back from Android. I've been switching Android phones about every 3 months for the last 2-3 years trying to find one that works like I want. The HTC One M8 at 5" was pretty close, but the screen was still a little too small. Tired of waiting for root/bootloader unlocks, flashing, tweaking, or software updates to get my phone to either just work or run smooth. The 6 Plus is a welcomed change. A great combination of engineering/design and software.

Sorry about your penis.
 
I looked at the 6. It looked the same size as my 5s. No way am I going there. I went with the 6+. Yea! It's perfect! Loving it. :D

Bingo same here if apple actually did not release a bigger phone I would have gotten a Note 4 as a larger phone is a must these days.

I'm glad I got this phone. It is functional, and honestly, I wouldn't need an iPad now with this phone.
 
There's only one reason mine might be returned...

To go 128GB instead of the 64GB that I have now. lol :cool: I'm already struggling to keep storage in check and just want more stuff on my phone!
 
Keeping it. No bending, no yellowing, loving being able to see everything without scrolling. I find myself reaching for my iPad mini much less since I got the 6+.

Ugh NO! I have my 6+ since probably before you and it lags. The lag is not bad. It's more of an occasional hiccup or stutter, but its there. My mom's 6 does not lag. I also notice a very noticeable delay when pressing the home button to multitask.

So there, that makes there a noticeable difference between the two. Enough said.

People updated their iPad air to ios8 and said it was super laggy and slow and this and that. I updated mine and it's faster than it ever was. Like, really faster. Everything. I don't know why it is so, but it's the same with everything. Yosemite has been GREAT even on my 2007 iMac, while other people say it's slow and freezes and stuff. Try exchanging yours.
 
My wife and I are keeping ours. No issues at all. Fantastic battery life, great camera, amazing screen. Wouldn't go back to the smaller size at all.
 
Do you give back your kid cause he's slightly retarded? Hell No! (I know, bad joke)

Thor stays and Ill sit on him and bend the hell out of him but at least Ill get to keep the phone of my dreams.
 
This is actually the first iphone I've actually been able to do real work on!. The screen is GLORIOUS!!!!. Not to mention GPS, YouTube, Netflix, reading and so on. Battery life is nice!. I can't go any smaller now that im used to this :). Actually I sold my iPad mini retina 2 days ago as I find myself not using at all after getting this one. The screen is that nice!.

Does not lag on mine. No delay to multitask either. Not enough said.
 
Love my 6+. Managed to get one via in store pickup. Wish it was space grey but looooove the phone

I just want to throw this out there.

I was DEAD SET on returning the 6+ for a 6. I didn't care about the color or the gigs... I just hated this big thing. I was going to go tomorrow morning.

But this afternoon, my Apple black leather case came in. I put it on and it changed EVERYTHING. I no longer feel like I'm going to drop it at any point. It keeps it off of the table no matter if it's face down or back down.

After I put the case on it, I'm keeping it.
 
I tried a Samsung Galaxy note 2 on Verizon a couple of years ago when it was released. I returned it and thought to myself God would a iPhone this size be awesome. Well Apple finally did it and I couldn't be happier. And for the icing on the cake they give us 128gb to boot. I am in love with this phone and wouldn't think of returning it for a 6. Dont get me wrong the iPhone 6 is a really good phone too but it's just not for me.
