LHD wrote:I have man hands and have had a couple of Galaxy Notes plus am on a Nexus 5.
The Notes annoyed me because I could not use them that well with one hand.
The Nexus 5 I can, though.
If I look at the dimensions of the next iPhones, I'd say if you want to use one hand, avoid the +.
I don't think you fully understand the 'one handed use' button they have set up, a double touch of the home button brings the top of the screen down to halfway so you can operate with one hand, very clever and no doubt with use it will become natural, so no long thumb stretching
To get full use of the Plus I think you have to look at it as an iPhone/Pad, so you will use it more hence more apps and more storage required, you can never up the storage so worth biting the bullet and going max, you will get more out of it and not have to worry about it filling up soon.
So what am I going to do, no idea, the plus appeals because of what I have said above, it's something different and I will probably use it more, the extra battery life is a pro but I'm worried about the large screen and cracking it, I would want some kind of protection so we will have to see what covers come out for it, the only problem is that if its a slide cover when you take it off you are left with something else to look after.
Sod it I may just get one of each 128gb

Yes i think it has to be the Plus, Apple aren't stupid and are looking well ahead, so I will trust them and go for that I think. At least its something a bit different and as people say you get used to it, its not that much heavier and nearly as slim, these things will be doing more in the future, maybe replace laptops I don't know, so I want to be ready and waiting full of mb's
OK, I'm ordering the 6 Plus, not bothering with the 6 as I have a 5 and a 4S, going for Gold 128mb as first instinct told me

or the source, as of course you don't trust anyone who leaves a link to a DOC or PDF on the line:

Print, cut. Will be going for a regular 6 though I'd like a 1080p display, optical image stabilisation and longer battery life.
Hmmm....
edit: one more difference
Quote:Landscape mode: The 6 Plus will be able to use special iPad-style landscape modes on some apps when the phone is held horizontally; the 6 will not.

Have had the note 3 6 months or so.
Mainly use for internet and email and would not go back to small screen now, in actual fact would like bigger s4 s5 look so small now.
Would suggest if your phone is mainly for calls small is good, but 6 plus would suit people who use email etc more D4 Landmark MY16 Santorini Black THE LAST

Yeah I agree, went to the Note 2 from an iPhone 5. Screen size was the deciding factor, the big screen Note is just fab. I've had no issues with one-handed use on the odd occasion I wanted to.
Don't like Android, I'll definitely buy the 6+ ____
