Hi im very close to getting a 6 or 6 plus,im coming from a htc one m7.
Just wanted to ask how long battery life do you get on your devices?
Im quite a power user and can use the web browser for hours on end.
On gsm arena is actually says the 6 beats the 6 plus for web browsing hours is this true?

Quite torn between the 6 and 6+ as i think the 6 will be more comfortable but better for videos etc on the plus.
Any advice appreciated.
How long you can use web browser could be key for me :)

Here's a quick comparison between the two:
  • Audio: 50h vs. 80h
  • Video: 11h vs. 14h
  • Browsing: 11h vs. 12h
  • 3G talk: 14h vs. 24h
  • Standby: 10d vs. 16d

I've used both. The 6+ will be much better than your M7. The 6 after my day would be about 30% left and the 6+ 60%

If you want the battery go with the 6+ and know it's the longest lasting iPhone available.

Thanks for your opinion and how do you think the 6 would compare to the m7?
On a work day when i use the browser a lot on the m7 i get around 5-6 hours under pretty much constant use?

I own both 6 and 6+.

When I use my 6 I will end up with 30-40% remaining at the end of an average day.

When I use my 6+ I will have no less than 50-65% some times even 70%. Same amount of use and tested multiple days.
