Why does disliking a phone automatically have to be "can;t afford the plus"? This is the same BS that Apple folks were saying about Android users 4-5 years ago "you only buy Android because you are too poor for an iPhone". REALLY? I can't just dislike the gargantuan size of the 6 plus? :rolleyes:

(By the way, I am all for the 6 Plus, but it is ridiculous to incinuate for a second that people are against the plus because they "can't afford it").
 
but maybe its the 6 Plus buyers who are poor because they can't afford to buy an iPad so they opt for the Plus to get a tablet-like experience
The iPad Air is cheaper than the iPhone 6 Plus & the iPhone 6...
 
I bought my iphone 6 16Gb here in Canada. Thats right the cheapest one! Reason being I use cloud storage more then most.

Am I cheap, hell no it cost me over 800$ (Carrier subsidies are a joke up here)! Could I afford the close to 1000$ for a 16gb 6+.... Yeah, but coming from a Android phablet I know the BS phablet users have to go through day to day and I'm done carrying around a device pretending to be a tablet (to which is far from replacing one). I opted for the slim manageable size ios device because it works for ME. The argument that being cheap doesn't apply, just buy what works for you and s t f u.
 
I bought a REGULAR iPhone 6 AND only got 16 gigs of strorage. I must be broke and am paying for this with a credit card. :D

I'm all for the Plus size being an option. But it's not for me and money had zero to do with it.
 
This just shows how fanboys will eat their young. Android, Apple, no difference. When you lack moral context it's easy to fall victim to this disease.

What makes it worse is all the people who take all this stuff so seriously. Really? :p
 
Gotta love people telling some one they are too poor to afford something when they are buying something subsidized vs those of us who are paying $900 out of pocket.

I suppose they think the subsidized price saved them money, but in the long run of that 2 yr contract, they eventually will pay full price for it. As for the OP, I just think that we shouldn't be hating on anyone, even Android ;)

You don't have to justify anything. Enjoy your new phones :D
