Love it. The missus 6 arrived today. glad I got the 6+.

I had an S5 so the size wasn't daunting.

True , got a pain in my ring waiting

Very happy with mine. Few annoyances mostly due to apps not being optimised, and yesterday I got a pain in my wrist from the way I was holding it while I played a game for nearly an hour, but nothing unexpected.

My guess is the experience will get better as time goes on as more and more optimised apps trickle in. Coming from a 4S, I don't feel the size is too big but it does take a bit of getting used to. Haven't had much experience with the 6, but bearing that in mind I'd still recommend the Plus.

Are people that have had them a week or two finding the battery much improved?

lm01

I found the battery improved after two full drain/charge cycles but I can't speak for anyone else.

I'm nearly sure this is not just reduced usage after the exploration phase wears off, but it is hard to be sure.

Lovely, been playing with my 64gb Space Grey 6+ for about an hour.

I bought a OnePlus One to test the size and try out Android. Also had a Moto G for the laugh in between.

Gladly back to Apple and the iPhone, everything is at it should be, where it should be. The screen is unreal and it feels the right size for me. My wife got a gold iPhone 6 16gb and it's a perfect size for her.

The 6+ will only fit comfortably in the pockets of a circus clown.

Seriously considering a G3 but haven't seen one in the flesh as nowhere in Dublin seems to stock them - might see one in Derry at the weekend. I know the screen is the big selling point but have read some negative stuff about brightness levels and oversharpening. I had a look at the 6+ in Vodafone a few days ago and was blown away by the screen. How does it compare to the G3?

In all honesty I think the G3 has the better screen pictures and movies are very sharp on it and to be honest it still blows me away with how good it is.

For me the main reasons I went 6+ are that the apps work like sky go. The G3 also has a screen issue I need to get fixed and LG wanted nothing to do with it as I purchased the phone through a German website.

The 6+ to me is a much more polished phone and more fluid than the G3 despite my one being the 32gb version with 2gb of RAM.

At the end of the day I'm happier using the 6+ so far.

Thanks - very helpful reply. I was specifically interested in finding out about the G3's brightness levels. Sorry to here about your screen issue with the G3 - would the German company you purchased from not sort out the repair for you?

The only issue I've had with brightness levels is trying to use the phone in bright sunlight it can take a bit of time and different angles so you can see the screen.

They are in fairness it's just a pain having to send it back there rather than uk to get repaired and be without a phone. No such issues with Apple due to advance replacement.

Got the 64GB Space Grey (stupid name) version on Vodafone. Love it, it's my first iPhone. The screen is ridiculously good, and battery life has been very good for me (went to bed last night with 48% battery, my old HTC One M7 would have needed a charge at that stage).

I will agree that some of the apps look fuzzy due to lack of optimisation, but other than that, it's great.
