My iPhone 6 Plus Experience After Finally Activating It

[murtzjaffer]

Hey all,

Finally activated my iPhone 6 Plus. I had preordered it and received it on launch day but was away on business and finally was able to activate it today.

So far, I am quite happy with the size. I still can't figure out how to effectively use reachability. For example, when I try to respond to a text using the reachability feature... I don't see any place to type a message, I can only see the messages that have already been sent. With that said, it isn't that hard for me to type with just one hand.

The display is a significant improvement over my old 5. I noticed that almost immediately as the picture is much more crisper.

With regard to the back-up and restore process... I had great success using iTunes. The phone restored immediately and I am not experiencing any of the issues that other users said that they did when they restored.

I did a lot of research into cases that are available and settled on a nice slim fit bumper case from JETech that I found on Amazon for $10.99. Originally, it was meant to just serve as a fill-in until Otterbox 6 Plus cases are available next week, but I find myself digging this temporary case.

That's awesome. I can't wait to get mine too. Seems like I have been waiting forever. I'm also looking forward to all of the new features. Especially continuity and Apple Pay.

Glad you're enjoying it! I usually switch phones a lot but I think I'm gonna keep my 6+ til my contract runs up. What kind did you get? Capacity and colour?
