What size iPhone 6 will you be getting?

[RavenSword]

I'm honestly not sure how much I'll appreciate OIS since I don't take many photos. And the ones I have I thought were perfectly fine on my 5S.

I would, however, appreciate the better battery if the 6 plus.

My main concern will be picketability. I don't want to keep my phone in a table when I sit.

I'm stuck as well. Get the 16GB 6+ or 64Gb 6? Wonder if the OIS will be a big deal. Pics are great on my 5S so I doubt it'll be a huge difference.

That is the only thing that has me on the fence right now. Will the OIS help that much?

I don't know why people keep saying the Plus has better battery life. The iPhone 6 Plus' battery life is not better than the iPhone 6's. It has a bigger battery because the Plus is a big phone and so it needs more power. This does not mean that the Plus will not need charging, what you do on the phone will certainly affect the battery. And it certainly does not mean that the iPhone 6 (4.7) has poor battery life.

This graphic suggests otherwise and is likely the premise behind what people are saying.

Yes. Of course the numbers are bigger because the battery is bigger. It doesn't mean the iPhone 6 will have poor battery life, or that it's no good. In the end, it will depend on what you do, and this goes for both models.

Edit: Also, those are Apple estimates. Really how many times have those numbers been accurate?

I understand what you are saying and agree that only real world usage will tell the tale. Merely pointing out that this is likely the cause for many of the comments you've been seeing.

That was my original choice, but since the keynote I'm undecided. Every time I see a photo of the iPhone 6plus it reminds me of that famous quote " One big step for man and one giant leap for mankind" (something like that)....SMILE

Undecided on what colors, but I do know I will get both 6 and 6plus in 64gb.

pretty much set on 6 in space grey - I just have to decide 64 vs 128... but tempted to go the full monty and go 128... i have a 5 32 now, and it's always full - Im at a minimum amount of apps, and can't keep any movies on it... with my 5 being only 5mp, the new one will taking larger filesize pics, and i like keep a healthy photo library on my phone, not having to rely on cloud access all the time...

Also... it won't be gold... unless I have no choice lol. That's how I ended up with the space gray last year vs. gold.

The 5 had an 8mp camera as well.

But I do believe the pics on the 6 will take more space on the device... and video as well.

I believe I am in the same boat, I think I have decided to go space gray, 6, 64 gigs

Can't believe the iPhone 6+ is larger than my Note 3. Thank god for big hands.

I decided to go with the 6 64GB. I'm going through ATT Next and the price I would pay for the 16GB 6+ I can get the 64GB 6. My 5S battery is not bad so standard 6 can't be bad.

I am a professional photographer and can chime in here. OIS will definitely help..... in the right situations. Mainly night shots, or low light shots of static objects where the shutter needs to be open those fractions of the second longer. Than and only than will it make a difference. However the difference (in theory) should be definitely noticeable. Cleaner pictures, lower ISO (means less grain/noise), etc etc.

However that size has me concerned. I have a 5s and an LG G3. I think the G3 is the perfect size, if anything just a touch to wide for my hands. But that battery life on the 6 plus makes me want it baaaddddd.

Not really a difference. They both have almost the exact same dimensions. The iPhone 6 Plus is just slightly taller.

now we all know the size. but 5.5 size is great.

 

[LCW]

followed through and ordered a 4.7... the 5.5 features were appealing, but in the end, the ginormous size just wasn't what I was looking for - pocket ability and one-handed usage are more important to me than OIS and 401ppi.

Ordered the 128G silver iPhone 6.
