lets go, 02 Oct 2014Clearly you did NOT understand that this was a negative rev... more4years same nonsense. Ifans don't like to compare specs. It hurts their inner feelings. White paper will still be white paper no matter how you look at it. Until you draw something on it then it becomes art
An iPhone really is just another iPhone. The irony in all this is that iPhones are in 1 infinity loop.
Don't make Ifans sad...Cheers.

The only thing that gave them a bit of lead is that it comes out later than those devices and uses a newer graphics chip.

The iphone6+ is gInormous
iPhone6+ 158.1 x 77.8 x 7.1 mm & weight 172g. Screen display 5.5”
LG G3 146.3 x 74.6 x 8.9 mm & weight 149g. Screen display 5.5
Note 4 153.5 x 78.6 x 8.5 mm & weight 176g. Screen display 5.7
No microSD slot phones have for a long time had microSD slot so plus 32Gb multiple times
32 GB should have been the minimum memory all that APple have done is added a 128GB version (e.g. Galaxy Alpha 16gb is too low)
If this was CNN do you think they have rechargeable video cameras or battery packs?
2 hours plus to recharge a battery from flat, a removable battery or spare, NO official repair for battery replacement required.
8Mp camera since 2011 iPhone4S, even Nokia have upgraded the MID-RANGE 8Mp Lumia 820 to 10MP Lumia 830
No 4K video and video sound is still mono?
No enhanced resistance to liquids or dust, no Sapphire Glass and the Gorilla GONE.
Apple Pay the biggest NON PHONE GIMMICK of this decade, if you do NOT have a credit / debit card then you may be able to recreate Apple Pay by using CASH / Cheque/ Money Transfer or magic beans.
Apple pay is a money stream. Apple receives 15c per transaction, NFC (Not for Charity)
It has already been stated the iPhone6 or 6+ is the phone you upgrade to after 2 years on contract on the Iphone 5 (Take away Apple pay and all you have is a larger display iPhone5.
So again 4 years same specs you have bought EXACTLY the same phone http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=4910&idPhone2=6378
Not so much Futurama but Pasterama, the clue was Bender of course

Meanwhile, Apple’s brand new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus features a “disappointing” dual-core Apple A8 processor and “just” 1GB of RAM. But guess what… it turns out that those seemingly puny specs just crushed quad-core and octa-core rival smartphones in a number of key performance tests carried out by the world’s leading blog when it comes to technical gadget analyses.

Larger iPhone not the phone Apple wanted to make.
Overall the Note 4 and G3 still has the edge with the quad hd screen screen.
Sony Z3 credible alternative to the IPhone plus on 1080p.
Apply's Retinal display concept totally shot to pieces.

AnonD-149823, 01 Oct 2014Apple is also offering a new feature called Wi-Fi calling. ... morePreviously Facetime was Apple to Apple only
FaceTime over Wi-Fi: this means FaceTime has been extended to include NON Apple phones via wifi
PLUS
FaceTime over Cellular: An entirely different thing
This is VIDEO Calling and you will be charged at the rate for making these Video calls
I have not heard myself of any network offering a video calling allowance
ANY WIFI is "FREE"
CELLULAR is NOT FREE
On NON Apple handsets Cellular (video calls) have been available for years, but you paid. Apple have joined the club, wifi calling will see the major uptake

My MyPhone S-line no problem plays wave 24bit/96 khz. Cost about 200 $
I think that iPhone 6 Plus is a hyper expensive toy for naive...

AnonD-215925, 01 Oct 2014ye PoweraVR is something that is far better then any GPU :D... moreJust saying power vr does not mean best. It means apple used a newer gpu that is a little ahead and it happened to be a power vr. Learn to think.

AnonD-314503, 01 Oct 2014Whats funny? Just because apple doesnt go with pixel race? ... moreThe specs are just as important as the the software driving it. The software is good, but the spec is only decent.
If they used the same tuning on a larger sensor the results would be much better.
Don't be a blind fool. It's not the best. It's outperformed or overall outperformed by a few other phones....
And this is just us talking about the camera. Basically the same thing works for the entire device.

many reports now saying the iphone6+ is not as bendable as thought. that said well done review. It's time apple joined into the phablet race. I wish I can cancel my ip6 for the a ip6+. oh well. next time maybe. in a couple years they should have resolved the not so big of a deal bending issues.

Anonymous, 01 Oct 2014Thanks for your constructive comments.
- "What perc... more"I agree that for some people Mobeam will sound like a gimmick, but I actually use it several times a week (some of the cards we use are common between my wife and I, so I just have all the cards on my phone, my wallet is a lot smaller, and we didn't have to ask duplicate cards).
I also have my phone on me at all times, which cannot be said for the cards."
Doesn't this work like iOS's Passbook? (plus now, first only in America, there's Apple Pay for credit cards).
"I agree about Airdrop, though many Android phones have the same kind of feature out of the box as well."
I didn't know that. What's the name of the funcionality?
Problems which I talked about where strictly connected to GSM Arena's list of pros and cons. I think that it doesn't reflect the "spirit" of well balanced review.

Strange about curves and bends, i talked to a nice girl who works in a Sony Xperia store and she said they had customers coming back with bent and pocket-broken Xperia Z2, so now they are informing all customers that phones of that size must not be carried in the pocket. Z3 ismuch thinnner, will it bend? For sure. As easily as 6+? Maybe.
