After using the 6 for a day it is plenty big for me. It's so big i feel a little embarrassed pulling it out. I can't imagine having the plus. Great upgrade for me from the 5.

I went to get the new iphone yesterday and all they had in was 16gb , I wanted 2 of the 128gb so I had to order them .
I could not imagine holding the plus  wow  .  We have the 5s now but they are 16gb only and we need more storage or I probably would of just
kept the 5s.

Did you go from a 5s to the 6 ? if so which did you like better

Good input Guf, I haven't had a chance to look at them yet. I really want the plus but too big in too big, I just want to be able to read what's on it.

I'm getting the plus.
A shade bigger than the Galaxy - perfect.

The ordering menus at the Apple store were terrible on the preorder date.  It gave me no option to carry on with my grandfathered ATT data, thus I had to head to the ATT online store and place an order for a 6 + 64GB which seems to me the most desirable size.....  But lo and behold, these imbeciles put the ship date from 21-29 business days from the 12 of september....  When I got an update, it will ship on the first week of November.  That tells you how messed up was Apple at providing sufficient units for its partners, NOT. 

Anyway, I can wait.  BUT, why do I suspect that the 6 + will be too large for most things?  I bit the bullet and bought it and now, it is too late to back out of it.  Perhaps the Regular 6 would have been good enough. 

 :duh:

No, the old iPhone's screen is tiny.  I have an Android phone and a Windows phone, and once you have a larger screen, you can't go back.

If it makes you feel better I preordered my 6+ 32gb at 4:30am on 9/12 from apples online store and received a date of Oct 24th

6 vs. 6+ is a one hand versus two hand decision (as the plus is too big to fully use with one hand, unless you palmed basketballs by age 12).  And what size pockets/purse do you have (because there's no way you want to have the plus hanging off your belt waiting to get picked, fall off, or get caught on everything).

Funny, I felt the same way, but now that I have had the 6 for a week and when I held a 6+, it did not seem all that large. Perhaps in another year, I might go for the 6S+.  :wink: I think incremental size changes are easier to adapt to, than larger ones.

For use as an audio player, doesn't the size of the 6 or 6+ make it kind of obtrusive?  I have an iphone 5 and I still don't like it because I think it's too big.  The 6 and 6+ look gargantuan.

To tie this thread into audio...  I like the 6 Plus over the earlier phones because the Remote App for iTunes is much easier to read now.  :green:

I looked at them.  The 6+ is just too big for me to carry as a telephone (I don't do the belt clip thing and it looks way too big doing that too at least to me).  So when my upgrade is due in just under 3 months, I'll be getting the 6 and going to order cases for it in the interim.
