NFT: Apple 6 Plus - Anyone Have it

Howard K : 11/28/2014 10:25 am
Anyone have one of the new Apple phones? Its time for me to upgrade and I wonder what experiences people are having with it.
I do and it's great

The hardware is incredible, the battery and camera are in a class of their own.

I switched from Android so still getting used to the o/s.
I just got the iPhone 6

love it. its bigger but not too big for me. faster, better camera, thinner. very happy so far.

i looked at the 6 plus and thought it was too big. its like a iPad mini in your pocket.

I have the iphone 6 (smaller one). I love it so far. I had been using the 4 for years and waited until this one finally came out. couldn't be happier. FWIW I recently got a galaxy s5 for work and I don't like it as much. a lot of that is probably unfamiliarity with android phones in general.
Typing on it now

and I love it
I'm available for an upgrade and their isn't an AT&T store in the area  
Giants4246 : 11/28/2014 10:47 am : link
that has a 64gb 6 or 6 plus in stock. I was in an AT&T store 2 weeks ago trying to get one. I'm in the charlotte NC area by the way.
I have it

Great phone...

Get it at the Apple store or online store, don't buy at AT&T, Verizon..etc..you will just wait longer
LG g3

Apple products do not even compare!
I have the iP 6 plus  
Some Fan : 11/28/2014 11:21 am : link
I don't have much to say other than I like it. The battery life is better than the 4 or 5. People say it's too big but it is fine for me; I like the big screen. I don't put my phone to my head; I always use earphones to talk on the phone.
How much memory?  
Howard K : 11/28/2014 11:38 am : link
Thanks for your answer guys. I've seen some comments from some that say that 16gb may not be enough. What is your experience?
My friend has the 128 gb  
crick78 : 11/28/2014 11:39 am : link
and he has tons of media on it. The battery is awesome! btw I'm a droid guy so i'm not of the "cult" :)

Well when i went to the AT&T store they told me they would give me $135 for my iphone5 thats in excellent condition but they didn't have any 6 plus for me to upgrade to. If i buy directly from apple or online then i have to deal with selling it privately on craigslist or something and that can be a pain in the ass but that may be my only option because dealing with the AT&T store is a fucking pain in the dick.
Best buy gave my friend  
crick78 : 11/28/2014 12:15 pm : link
200 for his 5s
Well I ordered through AT&T on Nov 5  
Big Al's Boss, Janet : 11/28/2014 12:19 pm : link
and their expected Delivery date was Dec 17-26, so after 2 weeks I cancelled that order and ordered straight thru Apple online on Nov 18 and their delivery date was Dec 12-17, however, this past Monday I received an email that it shipped and delivery date was Dec 5, I just checked Apple's website on my order and it now says it will be delivered on Dec 2 by UPS - origin of this shipment is CHINA - must have come right off the assembly line!! - So yes, if you want the IPHONE 6+ better to go through Apple
I Went From A 16 GB 4S  
Trainmaster : 11/28/2014 1:02 pm : link
which was my first smart phone, to a 128 GB 6 Plus. I really, really like the phone. It is big, but I actually made a cardboard cutout the size of the 6 Plus and carried it around for a couple of days, so I knew what I was getting into.

I jokingly call it my "Ipad micro". The larger screen is well worth it.

It's always the SAME one. This Cruz guy comes on every single iPhone thread to pump up his LG. Every. Single. One. It's extremely strange, actually.
I'm almost certain

6+  
kepler20 : 11/28/2014 3:47 pm : link
if you're used to apple, get it.


you wont regret the bigger phone. it's impossible to kill the battery in 1 day, and thats worth it alone.


ios8 is still somewhat buggy and is hampered by the 1gb ram, but it will last you 2 years easy.

What about the 5S compared to the 6?  
Anakim : 11/29/2014 2:01 am : link
Is it worth the extra $100 to go to the 6 or will the 5S suffice?
yes  
MookGiants : 11/29/2014 2:04 am : link
its worth the extra 100

I actually got the LG G3 for Black Friday because it was $2 and it's very good, but I need my phone to double as an iPod so I'm gonna return the G3 and get an iPhone. The problem is the price. $100/$200 for a 16 GB iPhone...and I don't think the Verizon Edge plan makes sense. Seems like it would cost more money in the long run than simply buying an iPhone under a 2 year contract.

going to even a decent amount of music/pictures/video on it get the 64gb one. 16 gb fills up a lot quicker than you think

I'm just gonna really use it for music. I mean I'll take pictures obviously, but I'm just gonna upload them to my computers and to Facebook so I don't need to keep my pictures on my phone. I don't think I'll need to download movies and videos (I can still go on You Tube on the phone after all).

Even on my Mac, that I've had for nearly 4 years, I have 471GB free of 498. I just don't use a lot of memory to begin with. I guess I'm missing out on a lot of cool stuff. Haha
I think I have the 64
