Anyone returning the 6+ for the 6?

[chandraz]

I have fairly small hands and I'm keeping my 6+. I moved from S4 to 6+ and it feels big. 4 days of use and im loving it more and now s4 seems small in usage. As everyone said it might be preference of screensize but i bet the more you use the more you love 6+.

Agree everyone wants the 6+ after bashing samsung and other android "phablets" for how they look when being used and making calls.

Oh I'd never hold this thing up to my ear LOL & I feel crazy using it on public. I had to use it to pay for my Starbucks & I was rather embarrassed for bringing out this HUGE thing but I guess the embarrassment will die once I'm use to all the stares

Agreed!!! The battery has been great.

That is good to hear. I am interested in seeing how great the battery is going to be.

I'm not embarrassed at all. I like all the stares because most of them ask me if its the new Note. I casually reply that it's an iPhone and then I hear the "how cool, I didn't know". Makes me smile.

I have to get use to it. It damn near covers the entire side of my face

I was at the Apple Store thinking about trading my 6 plus for a 6. After playing with the 6 I decided to stay with the 6 plus. It's a big device and take some getting use to, but, it's such a pleasure typing on it!

You will used to the size. I had the note 3 nd now the G3 and the size Is a non issue. I'm looking forward yo getting my 128 gb space Gray but mine is not scheduled to ship until 10/31. Now to wait and talk with you fine folks and live through you lol.

I love big smartphones. The screen is mesmerizing.

Well I'm doing the opposite and returning my 6 for the 6+ (coming tomorrow).

Coming from a LG G3* and all of the Notes (2,2) the iPhone 6 actually feels/looks dinky....should've made it 5" at least.

I was truly disappointed learning the 6 plus was SO TALL and casually going into Best Buy on the 19th and discovering they had the 6 in stock I decided try it out...why not. I AM REALLY liking IOS 8 / iPhone 6 combo but am surprised that my favorite app...Evernote...doesn't directly support script notes...always thought apps were better on ios...guess not. Plus what's up with all the super dinky random fonts ? Some are large (based on my settings) but others still appear super small...where's the consistency?

But I like the IOS notification stuff and how quick the camera takes photos...but just need to get to a larger screen.
The iPhone 6 actually feels and looks small...sometimes I think I'm holding the iPhone 5s (I keep comparing it to my wife's iPhone to make sure the iPhone 6 IS larger..ha).

Physically the iPhone 6 is a nice size for carrying but I could care less about one hand typing since I've grown accustomed to using 2 hands for the most part.

Just wish the iPhone plus was a bit shorter but I believe I'll get used to it...if not...iphone's certainly hold their value (disregarding bending issues HA..doesn't worry me the least).

So, tomorrow I'll be a 6+ guy and have enjoyed reading everyone's real life experience with the Plus..convinced me it's the phone for me (for now a least)!

*G3 (I had issues with how hot it got, poor battery life...slow auto brightness to adjust, poor outside visability).

I bought a 6 on launch weekend, and returned it for a 6+ yesterday.

I absolutely love the +. It takes some getting used to, though.

I returned my 6+ for a regular 6 last Sunday because my 6+ was only a 16 GB and I had nearly maxed out the storage within that short time frame. I have a 6 with 64 GB but if my apple store ever gets any more pluses in this weekend or by the end of the week this coming week, I will switch again to the plus. If not, I am happy with the 6 honestly.

So you prefer the plus ? Is it that 6 is kinda like the 5S?

 

[Mr_Freeze72]

I do like the Plus bigger screen and better battery life but for the most part the regular 6 and the Plus are the same phone minus the screen size and battery life difference. I am liking the regular 6 and if I have to be stuck with it for the next two years until the iPhone 7 hits, I would totally be fine with that as its a awesome device. However, I do favor the Plus bigger screen so if I do get the chance to switch before my two week return period is up, I will switch to a 64 GB iPhone 6 plus. If not, I will just keep the regular 6 that I have.

I think I have decided that due to how wide the phone is, I am going to go and swap my 6 Plus for the 64GB 6...it has been such a hard decision, and I am honestly still on the fence about it. No the whole "bending" thing has not been a part of my decision making, but texting on it has been not as easy and lots of typos. I do not want to get a 3rd party keyboard for it either, as I think the stock one does fine, sorta (ever since iOS8 the keyboard does not auto correct as much as before and i get more typos).

I was just wondering if anyone else swapped out, and if you did...do you regret it? I'd like to hear some opinions before I go in the next few days.

I did just that, sold my 64gb plus and got the 6 and I don't regret it at all, I guess it all depends how much weight you give the 6 plus features over the smaller 6. I personally came to the conclusion that one hand handling was way more important than screen size, battery, camera improvements, etc. but again, it might be different for you. I Love the size of my 6

I just returned my 6+ for a 6. I miss the big screen, but I'm too much in the habit of doing things one-handed. I have a full-size iPad, so it's not like I needed to have something close to a tablet. And now children don't cry and run away when they see the phone I'm using.

 

[IIJBII]

I keep thinking I a 6 would be a better fit for me, but when I use my Plus I love it. People ask how I like it and my reply is "hate carrying it, but love using it". I just took my case off and find the plus seems much more manageable naked. Not sure I'll keep it that way. But for now I think I'm sticking with the Plus. It's awesome to type on and the battery life has been pretty good.

Finally got into an Apple Store today just to get a hands on. The 6+ is beautiful & enticing but I don't know how comfortable I could be using it every day. Perhaps if I worked in an office & had a suit jacket pocket to put the phone in I could see that.... But my job isn't that boring to warrant a gigantic distraction device.

I plan on exchanging for the regular 6, if I can get a damn chance since its so limited. I have till October 9th under the 14day return policy to land a 6. I just want a phone that I can just hold. i like one handed usage. My friend has the 6 and I couldn't tell the difference with screen quality, nor camera. I'll miss the battery time usage on the 6+ though. Hey I'm talking like its guaranteed! If I dont land a 6 before my 14 day return is up then I guess I have no option but to learn to adjust and get over it.

I'm surprised so many people are swapping for the regular 6! I'm coming from the 5 having come from the 4, and I'm loving the larger screen! After a few days, it doesn't even seem so large!
