The iPhone 6 Thread

Good comparison between Iphone 6 Plus and Samsung Galaxy Note 4 here...

I like the way the Note sounds, and the S Pen sounds really great! Can't wait to try it out when it hits the stores.

"The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is a 153.5 x 78.6 x 8.5 mm device with a huge 5.7-inch Super AMOLED display with 1440 x 2560 resolution and 515 PPI."

Now that's a badass screen...

Google Nexus phone to be bigger than iPhone 6 plus

Google Hopes Whale of a Phone Will Make Splash in Phablet Market - Digits - WSJ

Screen size will be larger, but I bet overall dimensions (other than thickness, thinness if you are an appele nerd) will be about the same.

Most media outlets have a hard on for anything Apple. I was reading some reviews on the One Plus One last night and a lot of people listed a con of big and clumsy, yet they seem to have forgotten that con when reviewing the 6 plus which is overall larger than the 1+1.

I tried to make myself like the iphone 6 or 6 +, but the battery on the 6 isn't that good and the 6+ is just not ready for the big leagues. My note 3 has a killer battery and a big screen and the OS actually takes advantage of the big screen. I love browsing the web and watching youtube at the same time.

Android has been improving year after year and the OS is quite stable and fluid now, that was once Apple's biggest claim, yet now Apple is releasing almost beta iOS 8 and releasing updates that bricked phones. Apple seems to be on a different road now. Maybe they will return to their own vision when the 6s or 7 are released.

I also think too much time was devoted to the apple watch. I'm not a fanboy that likes to see others fail, but I personally don't see the watch taking off, maybe I will be proven wrong. It is too expensive and limited for the nerds, and too advanced for the fashion crowd.


I just couldn't spend the 850+ for the 6 plus just to have a nice camera and imessage.

I'm looking forward to seeing the Nexus 6, but I am eagerly waiting the Sony Xperia z3. The Sony has a good screen, great camera, and is water resistant.

The difference between me and you turbo is that your willing to deal with the shitty OS that samsung and Sony install over top of the pure google/android OS. Fuck that. Nexus for me baby, pure google phone.

True. I rooted my last galaxy and removed touch wiz. It really hasn't bothered me much on the note, but I am sure that I will be rooting in the next couple of weeks.

My wife had the nexus 4, it was a great phone.

The nexus 6 could possibly be my next purchase. I just need to see the camera and overall size specs. Battery life is also key to me.

I'm waiting to see the Note 4. I'm sold on the stylus.

First reported to have slightly worse battery life than the note 3, but now samsung said they are doing something to extend it. Slightly worse than the 3 is acceptable. The note 3 is a beast on battery life. The other day I was 19 hours off charge and still at around 25 percent. I stream a lot of music, tons of Web browsing, texts, and a few calls. I'm a habitual switcher but can not go back to a phone with a worse battery.

We should find out the nexus 6 info this week. I will let you test drive my note 3 if I happen to get a 6 prior to you getting the note 4.

i hate to say it but i got the 128gb iPhone 6 plus

im really impressed with it.

the screen is amazing, battery life is awesome 2 days of use per charge

its a little big but im getting used to it.

i still have my work iPhone 5s but rarely use it anymore compared to the 6 plus its like a nokia 3310.

but there isnt any new features that stand out other than the 1080 screen and battery life. i like it because its bigger and i didnt have to get a note 4 (swapping from apple to android is a nightmare)

[Scrumhalf]

Why "hate to say it? " By all accounts, it is a great phone. Enjoy it. Apple fanbois that drink the koolaid are annoying and the company takes liberties with their claims of what they have innovated, but there's no doubt that they are superbly engineered products.

Enjoy. The screen is really nice. I just wish apple did more to take advantage of the bigger screen. I'm sure it will be a great phone.

Switching is only a nightmare if you are heavily invested in itunes, otherwise it is no big deal. I switch all the time with minimal headaches, but I like to play with gadgets.
