Just tested out the 6 Plus!

[KingBuick]

I just tested the display model of the 6 Plus at my local Apple Store, and here are my first impressions:

It's big, no buts about it! Coming from a 5s, the big difference is the keyboard size. The keyboard has more keys and symbols than the 5s, so when I get the phone late next month/ sometime in November, it'll take me a while to get used to the keyboard.

The main issue is the screen size and resolution. I watched a bit of the Lego Movie and the Hobbit and they looked great. The main thing I'll use my 6 Plus for is watching movies and videos on YouTube and Vimeo.

I did not test out the 6 because I'm not interested in it. For me, it'll be the 6 Plus 128 GB Verizon in Space Grey.

Can't wait until I get it!

Same here, I handled one at the Verizon store. Thing has almost no weight at all. I couldn't believe how light it was.

I just tested out the 6 and 6 plus and the 6 plus is simply amazing. The screen on the 6 plus is so crisp and colorful compared to the 6. You can see the difference as the screen on the 6 plus really pops. I also had no problem holding it and will easily get used to it. Can't wait,, mine comes in 2 weeks.

I forgot to mention the camera. There's a new time lapse feature that's next to the slow motion camera. The 6 Plus camera also has OIS. I didn't test out any of the camera features out though.

I can't wait until late October/ sometime in November once the demand has died down at my local Apple Store. I can just walk in and buy the phone then!

Agreed, I was really surprised at how thin and light these devices are.

You're right. I just checked my camera and it has the time lapse feature.

How was the speaker quality?

About that of the 5s and every other iPhone

Good. I'm pretty sure it's louder than my 5S was. I'm happy with it so far.
