Apple iPhone 6 Plus review: Following the curve

Apple caved to market pressure and created a phablet. This may sound as blasphemy but it's not the first time Cupertino is seen reacting to rivals getting too confident, too aggressive - too close for comfort.
Pros:
  • Metal unibody, 7.1mm slim, 172g of weight, LTE connectivity (Cat. 4, 150Mbps downlink, 5.5" 1,080 x 1,920 LED-backlit IPS LCD with 401 ppi pixel density, Apple iOS 8
  • iPad-like split-screen functionality, Dual-core 1.4 GHz Apple A8 chipset, M8 motion co-processor, PowerVR GX6450 GPU, 1GB of RAM, 8MP...
Cons:
  • Hard to use single-handedly
  • unimpressive screen to body ratio (6" Androids fit in the same footprint
  • No microSD slot
  • Pricey memory upgrades
  • 32GB version should be standard for such an expensive phone
  • No user-replaceable battery
  • Protruding camera lens makes the phone wobble if you don't have a...

Apple iPhone 6 Plus Review

So yes, the iPhone 6 Plus is legitimately a phablet. That's why there's a lot of noise regarding this year's release since Apple has resisted even going the way of major flagship device in the range of 4.7 to 5.0 inches, then suddenly they made a sizable shift to 5.5.
Pros:
  • * Large full HD display
  • * Good performance
  • * Impressive camera performance
  • * Option for 128GB internal storage
  • * Touch ID and Fingerprint sensor
Cons:
  • * Very expensive retail price
  • * Crippled NFC capability
  • * A bit unweildy to hold

Apple iPhone 6+ Plus (128GB, Gold) - Excellent review

I started this review by listing the differences that the iPhone 6 Plus has when compared to the iPhone 6, and those are really the key points so it's worth going over again. I'm starting to sound like a broken record on this, but for the areas shared with the iPhone 6 it's critical to go back to...

iPhone 6 Plus Review

This is a lightweight and slim device, which benefits from beautiful build quality and a massive HD display, but the iPhone 6 Plus is not the fabulous phablet we'd hoped for. While the Galaxy Note range has created a niche market, Apple appears to have gone for the safe option and ended up selling...
Pros:
  • Quality design and feel
  • Fabulous display
  • Speedy and powerful
Cons:
  • Large and hard to hold
  • iOS 8 doesn't really make the most of extra space
  • Pricey
  • Lacks stylus support

Apple iPhone 6 Plus Review

It's January of 2012 and I'm in Las Vegas to cover the annual Consumer Electronics Show. I'm stuck in traffic with a colleague of mine when our taxi driver points to an advertisement for a new smartphone and asks if we know anything about it.
Pros:
  • Beautiful, bright and color-accurate HD display
  • A8 SoC performs on par or faster than competing chips
  • Improvements to the camera hardware and battery life
  • Finally makes iOS an option for anyone interested in a phablet
  • Thin body and the tapered edges of the front panel glass look stunning
Cons:
  • Protruding camera lens takes away from the overall design
  • Few iOS apps are optimized for the new form factor (though this will change over time)
  • Price -- Apple added a new 'premium' tier to the iPhone lineup

Six years ago, I sat on my girlfriend's couch, casually flipping her new iPhone 3G end over end. I was pondering why anyone would buy an iPhone over my clearly superior T-Mobile G1 handset.

In-depth review: Apple's 5.5-inch iPhone 6 Plus running iOS 8

Apple's first foray into the phablet business is largely successful, but we do have a few quibbles with the UI. We were hoping Apple could do something innovative with the extra screen real estate, something beyond Reachability.
Pros:
  • Gorgeous 1080p display
  • A8 chip and efficient communications package boosts battery life
  • Optical image stabilization for iSight camera
Cons:
  • Large form factor limits pocketability
  • Apple could have done more with the extra screen real estate
  • Gorgeous 1080p display
  • A8 chip and efficient communications package boosts battery life
  • Optical image stabilization for iSight camera

Review: Apple iPhone 6 Plus

Here's the best way to start an iPhone review: Goddamn do I love Android. I love its flexibility and efficiency. I love the way it bends to my will. And I've spent the past couple years loving that I can get a phone that isn't made for someone with doll hands .
Pros:
  • Excellent camera quality produces amazing images
  • Almost impossible to shoot blurry video, even of uncooperative toddlers
  • Battery life will keep you going all day and well into the night
  • Glorious, vivid, roomy display will make you want to throw out your iPad.
Cons:
  • You call these widgets, iOS 8? I want to be able to read my email right on my home screen
  • It scratches
  • It bends
