…the battery sucks, it has a microscopic scratch on it, Live Photos are gimmicky, the screen has a yellow tint, it gets too hot, it isn’t pink enough, 3D touch is useless, the volume isn’t loud enough, haptic feedback is annoying, can’t hear the vibrate, Touch ID is too fast, it’s too slippery, force touch is too hard to press, the camera is underwhelming, screen is not as bright, AND…it probably fu*king bends!!

All joking aside, complaints seem pretty few and far between this round. Especially compared to the iphone 6 fart of a phone.

I think Apple just about nailed it this time.

Yes, Safari feels snappier.
 
The yellow screen is a legitimate problem that upstream screen suppliers like Samsung have simply refused to fix or investigate.

Love it! You may have single handedly shut down this forum for getting all the bitching comments out at one time. Now I look forward to reading all the fun everyone is having with their new phone.

Yes, two things.

1.) there is no perfect phone
2.) a lot of people with varying preferences and values post here.

Given those two things, you're going to have dozens of distinct gripes posted, even if each person individually has only one or two.

For myself, my 6s+ is freaking amazing. Its the best phone I have ever owned. The only actual complaint I have is the weight. But for me, it's still the best phone in existence and it's not even close.

But like I said, take everyone's "one complaint", cobble them together and it's easy to make this forum seem like a bunch of whiners
 
In a completely non-sarcastic sense, the design is atrocious -- or at least it doesn't "pop" or stand out" in comparison to any other Samsung phone out in the market like iPhones in the past did (4S, and 5 come to mind).

If the iPhone 5/5S were Giseslle Bündchen, then the iPhone 6+ and the iPhone 6S+ would be Susan Boyle.

Really? I hated the 4S design when I got it. Still do.

And the 5 was even worse.

I love the 6-Plus/6S-Plus. Really love the sleekness.

You should have bought a Samsung phone, then. There are almost no differences among them, aesthetically speaking especially the plus variants.

Everyone loved the 4S and 5 design. Pretty hard to dispute that!
 
Ugh, there's an Apple logo when I turn my phone on. Why must they put their logo everywhere??!?!?!?!?

(The touch ID thing is a bit annoying though - is it just me, or is the home button harder to push? It seems like I need to hit it with my nail)

you forgot to add, "Bring Forstall back!", or "Jobs would not have approved this!", "Phone is too heavy!"
:D:D
 
While I definitely made fun of people complaining about the weight, but boy you can actually tell a difference in weight when holding both the iphone 6 and 6s in both hands. The 6 feels way light and thin, the 6s not so much. It isn't bad by any means, definitely feels like it would take a lot more to bend

Sounds like the weight is similar to the 5 which I liked.

I quite like the additional weight, tbh...

I think it is nice too honestly, just didn't think I would be able to tell a difference. But you can when holding both, in every day usage most likely not.

This phone feels so much more solid, and less fragile.
