I was at VZW this morning and they already have iPhone 6 & 6 Plus cases in stock. Holy freaking cow, the iPhone 6 Plus is a beast. It's the first phone I've seen that makes the Note 3 seem small. It's not even pocketable. I was even surprised at how big the iPhone 6 seemed. Feels more like a 5" display than a 4.7. The 6 Plus feels more like a 6" device. :eek:
 
It's about the same size but marginally taller than an S5. My wife's S5 is very pocketable.
 
Some people will be delighted if they like the phablet experience, but be prepared for a flurry of buyer's remorse especially if they blindly went for the 5.5 just for the better specs.
 
I just got my plus case from Amazon today. I am quite pleased with the size and can't wait to fill it with a phone. It is really thin. Much thinner than I expected.
 
Anyone smell exaggeration?

Check it out for yourself. The .2" of extra display room on the Note 3 means nothing. The 6 Plus is taller than the Note 3 so it is a larger device. It's Big! Why would I exaggerate? I am truly surprised at how large it is.

I'm taller than every starting lineman in the NFL. Doesn't necessarily mean I'm larger.
 
Just downloaded the templates for the 6 & 6+...and I call complete BS on the OP's saying the 6+ is a "monster". It's not at all. It's slimmer than a Note 3, and just a bit taller. I was all set to order the smaller phone, but the 6+ isn't bad. I'm pretty sure I'll get the 6+ when I upgrade.
