Made a quick video showing how drop down notifications work on the iPhone 6 Plus. It's pretty difficult, or actually impossible, to use the quick reply/delete/etc one handed, at least for me and my hands are at least average size for being 6' tall. Hopefully Apple can address this in iOS 8.1 but wanted to give people a quick heads up if using the phone one handed is important to them and they are still trying to decide between the two sizes.
