This phone is badass .... But

[Lyall Demorrow]

did you get the plus? or just the six?

How does the iPhone compares to the samsung one. A few months ago i was tempted to get the galaxy s5. The guy kept saying it was much better than the iPhone because it had full multitasking, water proof etc etc etc... but i just couldn't do it!! i love iPhones so much!!!

I just sold my Galaxy S5 so that I could get the iPhone 6 plus. The S5 is ok but it feels very cheap and it is laggy. I have always preferred the iPhone's build quality and now that I can get a big iPhone I will probably stick with IOS.

Where are you reading that? I'm sure some will be returned - buying something with a new form factor like the Plus sight-unseen is always a risk. That said, most of what I've read from those who own it is pretty positive. They will sell a ton of them.

I understand the OP concerns with the 6+. It's taking me time to get used to the size and to type with this bad boy. Nothing wrong with letting us know how he feels.

So I did the laundry today, washed the dishes, took out the trash, and washed my car. None of those chores reminded me of my i6p. I also held 5 ices cubes in one hand and my i6p in the other and it was a totally different experience. Last I don't feel like returning it, I love this phone, its now part of me, and we will walk blindly into a fountain together one day.

Its a chore to use .

It's like holding 5 ice cubes.
I feel nervous with it

Not sure I'll be able to keep it .

I know what you mean! (except for the "not keeping it part"). I purchased an Apple leather case today and it makes a world of difference.

OP, at least you got a nice new iPhone. I gotta wait until January. Hang in there. You'll get used to it soon enough.

If you think iMore is any different than the other nations you are very wrong.

I very much disagree in my experience and I do frequent all daily.

Agreed. Although I miss feeling the curved glass edges. That was one of the best features.

Cool story.
Bro.

You MAD Bro

I don't think you're giving it enough time. It only came out on Friday so you've only had it for three days MAX. Give it time!

Haha! Those are less reliable than the comments on news articles! Especially AC and CB, which are infested with apple hating mfs. I can just see some desperate BB fans hoping with all they have that the iPhone 6 will be a flop like the Q10(heck, any of BB latest phones, and the company itself) was. And desperate android fans want it to flop so they'll have more trash to throw on the fanwar Fire.

It has the same BS. You guys may feel a more close knit as a community because there are less people who post overall. But the same whiners, complainers, trolls, and fanboys are still here. Not sure how you guys don't see this.

Oh yes I agree with you there. But as far as the leadership and mods here, we are extremely different.

Lets bring this post back on topic, please.

I have yet to experience anything different. I am not going to argue that you are wrong, because you very well could be right, just not in my experience.

Of course. My bad. Sorry for the segue.

Yes the 6+ is a "badass" device. But I wouldn't even call it a phone, most definitely a 'phablet'. It is silly big and talking on one definitely looks like a "chore". As for it being slippery, my experience with it, it didn't seem too bad.

I was all set to get a 6 and even reserved one to pick up. But I cancelled it and decided to stick with the Plus especially after a day out with the kids. It's growing on me. Besides, I may as well take my time with it since I have almost two weeks to decide.
