If the 6 had been at least 5 inches I might have considered it. However for me as apart from one month at the beginning of the year when I got the iPhone 5S I haven't used a phone smaller than 5 inches in almost three years. The 6 is simply too small. I also wanted the 6 plus because of the higher screen resolution, OIS and better battery life. Having used the 6 plus now, I could never go to the 6 based on the battery life alone. It's just awsome on the 6 plus. Let alone the screen size and screen resolution. I haven't used the camera that much so can't really comment on how useful OIS is.
