This one is long. Sorry...
After owning the device for 2+ weeks and switching over from 6 years of being an Android Fanboy, here are my thoughts.
1. Buttons. There were a couple of people complaining about the power button and sleep buttons on opposite sides. For the past couple of years I've had devices with the the sleep button being on opposite sides of the volume buttons. I've never accidentally pressed power instead of volume up. Maybe you just need to get used to this setup, I know I did.
2. Bendgate. So that passed rather quickly. I understand iOS users were used to a small device. Having a bigger device comes with new behaviors. Having a 4 inch phone in your pocket is no problem. Having a phone the size of the 6+ while you sit can be uncomfortable. I've had to learn to take the phone out everytime I go in my car since the Samsung Galaxy S4. Not to mention sometimes phones get hot while they wr in pockets.
3. Customizability. Android is great at this and iOS pretty much sucks. But to be honest I don't miss it at all. For 2 years I had the same set up on my android phone. 1 screen, a 6 icon dock and a time widget. I went through an S4, Note 3, Nexus 5, LG G3 with that set up. I'm positive most people have the same set up for years. What's the point on customization? There are a exceptions though. I know of some people who change their set up on a daily. Look at the XDA forums.
4. Hacking. Now I've rooted and romed every phone I've had. That was the best part of android. But it came at a cost. Sometimes I really needed to take a pic of my daughter, whoops camera quality sucks, or worst, it won't even open. Stability issues, bugs, crashing, some features don't work. I definitely don't miss that.
5. SD Storage. I've got a 128gb with 96gb left.
6. Size. The 6+ is not for everyone. People who complain about the size need to stick with a smaller phone. Same goes for people who say they can't use it with one hand. Duh!!! Can't buy a Truck and expect to park in the compact parking.
The most notable things for me are
* OS Fluidity
* Apps seem to be smoother and look somehow better. There's difference between the same apps on both OS's. Look at Pocketcasts as as example
* Touch ID makes all the difference in the world.
* It feels great to have a phone that feels premium.
* The OS Is Beautiful.
I know that a lot this is different based on preference but it's what I have to noticed thus far.
