Picked it up @ the Bentley (mall store) ..... luggage, bags and small leather goods retailer.

Perfect fit for the the 6+ and cards, bills, notes and a lot more.

I was an android person for years . This is my 1st iPhone and I got the 6.


Unfortunately after the 14 day return window I realized I want a bigger screen.


Anyone else in this boat? Guess I am stuck with the 6 .... screen for 2 years .

Oh I see! All these years and I never knew that! You learn something new every day, I guess. :eek:


I had this dilemma, before choosing the 6 Plus. My head said pick the 6, my gut said pick the Plus.
I'm glad I went with my gut.

Same story,I had this dilemma, before choosing the 6 Plus. My head said pick the 6, my gut said pick the Plus.
but i went with my head and bought the 6...too small for me coming from a Nexus 5,i was lucky that a guy in a forum here in Israel want to exchange the + for the 6,so i paid him 50$ and exchanged...
Lucky,next time im going with my gut ;)...

I am hoping to do the same thing but my 64g 6 is worth the same as 16g plus so I expect a craigslist trade to cost me 100$.

Unless I downgrade to a 16gig

If youre happy with your 6 size and battery,i suggest you to keep the 6,if not the 6+ its awesome!
 
Yea I love my 6 and love the 64 gig but kinda want the plus 64 gig

Guess I will see what craigslist says maybe someone wants to trade


Then again I do have an iPad at home so maybe I don't need a plus
 
Got my 6 plus 64 gb a few days ago and wow what a phone! I upgraded from the 5 and have been waiting for a bigger phone for ages. Finally a phone with a battery that lasts me two days!
 
My 6 plus comes Monday and I'm so ready! Will pop this sim out of my verizon 5 and slide it in there and keep the unlimited data flowing.
 
With my first phone of this size, I've been experimenting with case styles. I initially opted for the Apple Leather Case, then a snap-on flip cover, which got annoying, and I've settled for an ultra thin Spigen Air Case.
I never drop my phones, so this was all about grip whilst keeping the whole thing as slim as possible.

Does the case make it a lot less slippery in the hand? I was thinking of ordering one but am not sure if it will help the grip at all...thanks
 
Cheap and thin - great grip

I've bought 2 because I dropped my 6 (about three inches on a wooden desktop) and there was a minor crack, after using for three weeks. No noticible scratching either. It a kind of flexible hard clear plastic.
For the price, I love this. It has the same look and feel of a clear skin.

Definitely helps grip ability to me. 3 dollars and change. I'm glad I bought 2.
I keep my phone in a belt case, so not much chance of scratching.

I had my doubts too, but it definitely adds sufficient grip, that I'm confident to take it out and about. I thought it would be that dreaded 'soft-touch' material that can get very greasy, but it's a micro-textured matte plastic.
 
This is my favorite iPhone ever, I most say loving the bigger screen. 64gb 6+ space grey.

Gonna get mine on friday, at first I was dead set on a 64 gb 6 plus. But then a couple of questions surfaced that are making me consider the regular 6, I figured the best place to ask was this.

1. Does the 6 plus truly lags? is the performance of the 6 really that much better?
2. Is the photo quality all that superior on the plus?
3. If money was no object, which would you get? (I can get either version for close to the same price)
4. How´s each phone for sports? (I carry my phone everywhere when I run or bike).

Any other considerations?

Thanks in advance, hopefully I will be posting pics and my impressions on whatever I choose come friday.

The only real consideration you have to make is for the size of the devices.
No noticeable performance differences between them, other than the epic battery on the Plus.
The Plus' camera has optical OIS, vs the 6's digital OIS, but again, you won't really notice any real difference.
