Anybody pick up the new iPhone 6 or 6 plus today?  I went to my local Verizon store as soon as they opened and only had 9 people ahead of me.  Got a 16 GB iPhone 6 for free with trading in my old one and a 2 year contract.  I looked at the iPhone 6 Plus, but thought that was a little bit too large.  I'm very satisfied with the size of the 6.  I can't see myself upgrading for a long time something else comes along and wows me.

I'm curious how the extra size changes the feel of the phone?  Size wise, it looks about the same as my LG G2, but I have .5" more screen due to the "iconic" bezels (or whatever it's called at the ends of the iphone).  What do you think about the way it handles?

 

My wife is  not happy they made it bigger.  Her 5s in her otterbox is already getting on the big side for her small hands.  The fact that they went even bigger while maintaining iphone proportions...kind of puzzling.

 

I hope you enjoy your new phone!  I'm a technology nerd, so I'm always interested in new stuff.  I try not to let my android-ism make me a d-bag...

Bro they upgrade every year. Trust me you will be in that same line next year when they have the iPhone 7.

Nah, can't upgrade for two years and I'm never going to pay full retail for a phone.

I think it handles just fine. I can still easily use it one-handed. The 6+ however, was just too big, and I can't imagine carrying it around in my pocket.

We looked at them yesterday at the Apple store in Raleigh.

 

I have a Droid Maxx and the iPhone 6 is slightly smaller (the screen) than my Maxx while the iPhone 6+ is slightly larger.

 

They are much more comparable to my phone and the Galaxy S4 & S5 in size than the Galaxy Note or other Phablets imo.

 

I was surprised that Apple kept the bezel on both the same proportions as the 5S.  It looks odd to me... there's a lot more bezel on it than on other phones of similar size.

 

Both are very thin, probably half the thickness of my Maxx. If the battery life and processor performance are what Apple is claiming, they should be very nice phones, but nothing revolutionary except for the fact that Apple finally decided that they needed phones with bigger screens to stay current.

 

I am surprised that they didn't offer a new phone (some version of the 6) that is the same size as the 5 & 5s as I know a lot of people like that size for some reason.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      lol well that kinda ended up working out in the end, even though I still don't have my jersey yet. Was supposed to ship by tomorrow this time, but just got another email saying it was delayed another 3 weeks and because it's been delayed so long, I had to tell them to keep the order or cancel it, but gave me a 25% off my next order as an apology. Well, my original fear came true and they are now selling the FUSE version (but still not the Blue unfortunately) before the one I ordered was ever shipped. But that's awesome, because I was able to use that coupon to order the FUSE instead and then cancelled the original order.  So I got the jersey I wanted for only $6.30 more than the crappier version costs, and it also says it will be shipped immediately and get here early next week, or 2 weeks before the other was now supposed to be shipped out.

      I've watched this and think we are well underway.  Believe it or not, Bryce is a big part of this.  The way he bounced back with such grace.  And we've got a lot of young players who want to make their mark, Dave is giving them an opportunity.  I loved our draft.  I like the number of guys we brought in, and they will help build the culture we want under Dave.  We're getting closer, and I think we'll see more wins this year than most of the board. The right culture breeds winning, and winning builds the right culture.  Imho, it's coming.

      As others have said it's both. One creates the other. But it also takes time sometimes years. And there have been teams lately with new car smell coaching staffs that looked like they were putting it together quickly but things came crashing back down to Earth. Sustainability is the key. For that to happen the meddling of our owners has to stop and they cannot be tempted to return to their ways over any bump in the road either.
