everybody over exaggerates the antenna lines. are they pretty? No. but they are not that bad. I love the way this phone FEELS in my hand. My IP5 felt like it was cutting my hand with those chamfered edges.

Love my 6
 
I really liked the 4/4S with the glass back.

I liked the black band on the 5 even though it would chip.

I'm okay with the 6/6+ but it is moving toward what all the other larger phones look like. Then again - how many ways are there to style a device like this?
 
Only the 6 (6/6+) looks decent, but still unimpressed by its design. The Gold or Silver 5S has my vote.

Many ways; just do a google search on iPhone concepts. There are some great one's to be seen.
 
I'm not a huge fan of the new design, but after playing with 6/+ in store I love the larger and rounded screen/bezel. Design wise, I prefer the 5/5s casing, but miss the stainless bezel and glass back of the 4/4s. Sent from my iPad.
 
I do like the 6 but I think it now doesn't really stand out from those 100s of android phones on the market, i do think the 5 was one of the best designs to date.
 
I never liked the design of the 4-5,squared edges never felt comfortable to the hand.The 6 to me looks much better,and feels more natural in my hand.
 
The 4's and 5's were the best. I think 5S was the best overal. The 6 is the most advanced and has its points but still, if take a 4.7" 5S any day of the week!
 
5S is thicker, giving that solid feeling over the current. Apple should have giving us another choice with a 4.5 inch/ same thickness, smaller bezel iPhone. ;)
 
I would love to have an iphone like the 5C but with the specs of the 6+....... for some reason I love the white plastic cover with blackscreen on the 5C better.
 
better? NO. on par and can hold on its own with any design language of original, 3G/s, 4/s, 5/s series phones.. YES.

look at it as having 4 kids, everyone has their own character. you gotta love em fair and they deserve to be. LOL that sounded pathetic. lulz
 
I think the iPhone 4 is the best looking phone from Apple to date. The back of iPhone 6 is ugly but the front and sides are nice from what I have seen. I am wondering what small design changes Apple will do for the iPhone 6s next year assuming they do change it.
 
IMO the iPhone 6 is very well designed phone in overall. Only thing I'd really fix are the antenna lines. At the moment they seem way too thick which makes them pop out from the otherwise very clean and minimalistic design.

But iPhone 6 definitely looks better than 5 or 5S which was already a great design to start with. iPhone 4/4S design ftw thought.

This is the first iPhone that screams for a case to cover up those lines. The design choice to highlite them is odd.
 
In terms of design comparred to other iPhones it's not good at all only because of back,the front is nice but back is just terrible.

1st 4 / 4s
2nd 5s
3rd 5
4th 3GS
