Seems one thing that's pretty clear with the iPhone 6 Plus (and all Apple products for that matter), it exposes the sheer ineptness, lack of common technical sense and hand coordination in some people. :devil:

I never got why people would put their phone in their back pocket anyways! ANY phone!


Agreed. Putting anything in your back pocket (keys, wallet, etc.) is just asking a thieve to steal it.
I'm near a big city, and you learn quickly you never put anything in your pack pockets unless you are feeling generous.

Only issue I have with my 6 Plus is that it refuses to accept my right thumb. I've set the dang thing up three times and my 6 Plus still ignores it, lol.

Syncing with my work exchange server isn't working. Settings are accepted and then after a period of time syncing just stops. Come on 8.1.1!

Not too thrilled with battery life yet, especially on 3G or LTE. Getting some freezing in apps, or lag. Rebooted it once and then it wouldn't start up again, whole phone seemed dead. Thankfully a few moments later it responded and revived itself. I really do love this phone. Freezing and lag used to get me really paranoid about phones but I do know that with lack of memory and so many pixels to push that this might happen. But because everybody raves about the battery, I'm a little disappointed that I'm not experiencing it the same as others.

Getting YouTube videos, audio file music and ringtones into it was a hassle until I jail broke and use Pro Tube. Now I can do it all in the phone without a Mac or PC and it's all too easy peezy.

I read an article in Money magazine about the 6 plus.
The article goes on about how you should buy the 6 plus over the 6.
I found the article interesting, and it got me thinking how I may just buy the plus come upgrade time.
IMHO, there may or may not be problems with every phone you buy
It's all a matter of what is or isn't a deal breaker for you.

Definitely get the plus over the 6. You won't regret it. Bigger is better. And just recently I discovered how valuable OIS is for the camera. Screen is better.

Anyone having issues getting reachability to work? It was working fine yesterday and now all of a sudden it doesn't wanna do anything. It's on.

I'm having the same problem. I watched three tutorials to be sure I was doing it right. But it just will not work. When I double tap my apps will not go to the bottom of the screen. Siri will activate if I tap too hard. Also I get a view of all my open applications but no reachable apps.

Make sure you are tapping not pressing to get Reachability.

Thx for replying. I tried every which way (tap) til Sunday. LOL. When all my open screens pop up I close them. Then try tapping again all it shows is the one home screen minimized. I have Apple Care Plus and might just call them to go over a few settings. I'm also still in my first 30 days too.

Tapping is you have to tap on it like you would on the touchscreen. There is a distinction between pressing and tapping. Make sure you have reachability enabled under Settings > General > Accessibility

It's weird you mention this but I have the same problem. LOL. I just got it in my head to use my code as before.

I usually tap with my thumb pointed straight down with the tip of my thumb two quick taps. Try a reset or restore if you haven't already. I'm going to restore as new soon. I backed up from my 5S when I got it just to get it going.
Seems I get better performance as new.

How long did you have the note 4 and what did you think
abt it? I really like my 6+ and I'm dedicated to the Apple line. But I started second guessing my purchase of the 6+ and thinking maybe I should have bought the note 4.
