On route to pick my iphone 6 up!
nice one hope you enjoy it
----------
I wonder how many people got fed up waiting for a 6+ so ended up getting a 6
Had an order with 3 placed on 15th Sept for a Silver 6 in 64gb. Was told would get it on 3rd Oct. Unexpectedly got a text saying it would arrive today!
Phone turned up at 8:25 and have set it up and playing with it now. It's a beauty. Have come from the 5, and glad I didn't go for the 6+ because this one feels plenty big enough.
Feels lovely to hold, makes the 5 look really old!

Honestly, it's crossed my mind but I'm going to wait it out otherwise every time I saw a 6+ I'll think "I should have waited."
makes you wonder why is there other phones out there
Keeps Apple on their toes, they might not try as hard if there was no competition
crossed mine too but I'm gonna go with my gut feeling and stick fast to my choice of the 6+ because as you said you will only regret it after and at least if you really don't get on with the size sell it and downgrade anytime you like

Yeah thats so true!
Hey
I'm going to pass on making a comment as I don't have mine yet and now I'm sad
So after my 6+ 64GB arrived yesterday at noon, it was on 98% charge out the box (and freezing cold)... by the time everything was restored from the iCloud backup it was down at 75% and after a full day of overuse with the screen barely being turned off I had managed to get it down to 2% at midnight for its overnight charge.
Plugged my old 5 in overnight too and took them both off charge this morning at 8am, now bear in mind my old 5 has no SIM in it and is just on the Wi-Fi, it's already down to 89% with barely using it. The 6+ is still showing 99% and I'm still overusing it.
My main decision for the 6+ was for the bigger battery, bonus that the camera is amazing and the screen size is so much more fit for purpose for what I do with it 98% of the time... still dreading that first phone call in public when I'm out and about without a headset. You will look like a complete numpty holding this giant thing against your noggin BUT I DON'T CARE

lol good for you I'm lucky I've got a big head and hands
yeah that swung it for me too as I'm on site most of the day and don't have access to a charger to the better batt was a bonus straight away
I ride a motorbike and I can't help feeling that we will be doing the "biker nod" to each other when we see someone else with a 6+ lol

Used my 6+ on the tube this morning. No chance of being discreet with this monster!
Everyone can see what I'm doing and typing.

Haha exactly, you get it!
