Its ugly, its too big, it has a protruding camera, the space grey is really silver, those antenna lines are just appalling, its too slippy to hold and it just feels like its lost its soul of an Apple product and looks like a generic handset.
Its too big and its too slippy - I keep trying to remember to remove it from my pocket when I sit in the car, but nope, I always forget and it always falls out and slips down the impossible to reach chair sides, arghhhh.
I know a cover would help some of this slippy-ness (as would super skinny jeans all the kids wear to almost literally shrink wrap the phone to their legs) but I don't see why I should have to add a case, i've never liked cases, i've never used a case on any of the phones before and they were all fine, but not this one - in fact this is the first phone that i've ever dropped and broken the screen on too. 8 years of iPhone and this is the first i've broken...
Apple has bowed to mass opinion and to be honest the masses are never right about anything, they like Britain's Got Talent, the X-Factor and Justin Bieber, they also like massive phones, especially people under the age of 20 who consume their entire lives on a phone.
I'm 30, so I still use a Macbook for 95% of what I do and my Apple Watch seems to cover the mobile 4% which leaves me barely ever looking at my phone.
I'll admit, i'm one of the ones who bitter about the size increase
I'd honestly pay £200-£300 more than the cost of the iPhone 6S+ for a 4" phone format with the same specs. I know the real difficulty is making a power house of a phone in a small package. I also know that i'm in a very small minority of people here want the smallest, slimmest phone they can properly tuck into their pockets so it wont fall out and doesn't consume (any) video or media on it. But as I say, id be willing to pay a premium for such a device (instead of the 4" being referred to as a budget device, or a phone for women's hands!!)
i'm sure 95% of iPhone owners won't care about that, its a super successful mass market product now, not a niche device.
This is a year old but wow the ridiculousness... using absurd opinions as if they're fact, acting like he knows more than the majority of people in a generation smarter than he will ever be... LOL was a fun read.
