I'm thinking 6. Plus would fill my pockets

You get used to a big phone pretty quick - the Plus looks about the same size as a Nexus which I quite like. When I have to use an iPhone I always feel like I'm playing with a toy now, they seem tiny.

I thought that when the mother upgraded her 3Gs to an iPhone 5, had not used one in years and all of a sudden it felt like a Tomy phone

Just checked the dimensions, the One is roughly the same size. That's massive compared to the Nexus, a big jump up. I only used the One for a couple of days and the Nexus felt tiny when I went back.

That's the issue.

Use a larger phone, you climatise to it as such even if the bulk annoys you. Then going back to a smaller one will result in it feeling weird or substandard!

Not sure I'd want to live with anything much bigger than a 5 tbh (still on a trusty old 4 at the moment).

I am getting a bit of an itch for a new phone, had this over 3 years now. Those 930's look good value but I'm a bad creature of habit and I think I'd miss iOS, also they look pretty big too.

Lol classic apple mentality, don't like it but will buy it anyway followed by weak justifications about how you're going to spin it's the best thing ever after you've bought it

I'll probably get it because I've had iPhones for the last 4 years and I'm invested into that ecosystem now.

Never been interested in Android, I've used various phones for short periods and always come away disappointed. I would actually go for Windows Phone, but I'm waiting for a 'Surface' Phone or similar, hopefully that'll come eventually. As I said in my initial post, I am really only talking about the rear of the iPhone that's ugly, and it is... but everything else seems okay, and I'm a fan of iOS 7/8, which really, is the most important thing.

Oh and before you basically label me a 'fanboy' or something...

I use a Surface, iPhone, Chrome and PS3. I don't seem to have more than one product from any company, I just use what suits my needs best.

They're just good full stop IMO.

Though the Xperia Z3 will be the phone to have this season I reckon.

Probably going for 64g 6. The 6+ just feels too big when I put it in my pocket. Sitting down causes it to dig into me

I want an iPhone 6 64GB at £619.

What's the best (easiest) way to get cash for my iPhone 5s 32gb that was recently replaced by Apple so VGC?

Fonebank is good for recycled phones.

Yea, get what you mean - I wrongly assumed they'd kept the same form factor for the smaller one. Wonder how massive is the Plus going to feel? Fancy another iPhone now that they've made them with a decent size screen.

Been try to order on EE's website for over 5 hours now... still crashing all the time! Does anyone know if you can actually 'upgrade' at all on their website? I can't seem to find the option, only to purchase it from scratch as it were.

First few moments, look at the size of the 6+

Think I am going for a 6

6 looks a decent size. I'd still liek to browse on a 6 Plus but as Jambinho says, its a bit of a monolith.

We drew them both out on paper and it would just poke out of my pocket

I like the browse, landscape home screen and optical stabilization on the camera on the 6+

My work diary just so happens to be the exact size of the 6 Plus and it was sticking out of the top of my work trousers.

True story.

http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/iphone-scale.pdf - then some thick card board

I found the 6+ felt just that too big. As much as I like the features I just think its not portable enough.

Best I can do with o2 on a Plus is £48 a month.

Crashed before I could check regular 6.

Edit -

6 is free and £48 a month or £30 and £40 a month.

Same here, the 6 on the paper is more like the 5S size!
