I really don't know what happened to Ive. I truly don't. A lot of the recent releases just look plain ugly to me.

Mac Pro? Ugly.

iPhone 6? Ugly. (The back, the bands, and the pill shape)

It simply looks like an unfinished product. It's actually hard for me to believe they released it the way it looks. Even simple things like color are just way off. Compare it to some of the concepts that floated around based on the rumors and most look WAY better. There's an attention to detail that is missing from the actual product.

Should have gone to Supersavers

Why do you actually post on Macrumors anyway? You hate iOS 7 & 8, Yosemite, the iPhone 6 and the Apple watch. You also have issues with Apples advertising showing mixed race couples apparently...

I would disagree, my iPhone 6 looks great. Best design since the 4/4S in my opinion. The antenna lines are not as bad as I initially thought. They have grown on me to the point that I prefer them over the glass pieces of the iPhone 5.
 
This is very nice.

My little brother (he's 36, so not so little anymore) saw mine for the first time yesterday. He said "looks like any other Samsung type of phone".

Everyone it entitled to their own opinion on this stuff.

But I think yours shows you have terrible taste. :cool:
 
and the 5 was nice?


it looked liked a lanky scrawny iPhone. it wasn't proportionate.

To be fair, the image you posted is just crap, it looks like it was done on MS paint. You should change it to this one for accuracy.

the back of the iphone 6 is ugly only because of the antenna bands and the protruding camera
other than that, its quite pretty.
the most 'solid' design was the black iphone 4s.
then the white iphone 5s
then the original iphone.
 
OP, do you have a better looking phone in mind?

It would appear based on sales figures so far that your opinion is in the minority. I could see how you could think that the phone might fall short in a few areas (antenna bands, protruding lens), but to call it "ugly" overall? I don't see it.

It's not fair to compare it to the concepts. Those are renders and have the luxury of not having to worry about the constraints of technology, engineering, or mass production.
 
How old are you?

LOL


Writing this on my amazing 5.5in screen

Older than you, obviously. Although I'm not sure what relevance that has to the discussion.

Just so I'm clear, your arguments for why you like your iPhone 6+, and why you don't think it's ugly as people in this thread are claiming, are:

a) "What, couldn't afford one?! LOL"
and
b) "LOL HOW OLD ARE YOU"

Well! You've convinced me! :rolleyes:

What relevance to the discussion has your assumption that I regretted my purchase of the incredible iPhone 6 Plus???
 
My wife says it's ugly, but I don't care. She's just jealous because 6 is by baby now and it gets all the attention.
 
I came from the 4S and I really do love the design of the 6. I've held and used the 6+ in store but didn't like the size. To each their own but I think the real discussion point here would be why this inane thread is still open?
 
10 million people in the first weekend of sales disagree with you.

Your brother would be wrong as Samsung copied Apple not the other way around.

i think he was talking about the phablets.


lol everyone was saying how ridiculous people look making calls with phablets years ago.

Apple makes one multi million sales and not enough to go around.
 
Actually I had a chance to check out both the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6+ at Bestbuy yesterday near my house. I think the iPhone 6 is a much better looking and feeling phone. Once I picked up and handled the iPhone 6+ it totally felt like a piece of cold metal. I didn't like the way it felt at all. I think because I'm used to having phones that have both metal and plastic. Anyways I didn't like the cold metal feel to it. TOO MUCH METAL!!!!!

The iOS graphics engine Metal won't help you :/

Geez I wish my iPhone 6 Plus looked at least a little like that! Much better design than the one mine has. Typical Ive. That guy has no idea about design whatsoever. /s
