The editors didn't like
Price
Big and heavy
It's almost a tablet•Costs $100 more than the excellent iPhone 6•More expensive than other phablets
Slippery
Best with two hands
Weak audio output
Pricey for 16GB
I constantly worry that I'm going to drop the damn phone. I've dropped it three times already
Thankfully onto carpet
And thankfully only while it was inside a case. I just can't find a good way to use it with one hand
Which rules out using the phone an
Pricey
Glass back can easily shatter
May be too big for some people's taste
Power button has been moved to the side
Will be too big to carry in some people's pockets
Too tall for easy use
Bendgate problems
No power saving
Speaker is unimpressive
Day time pictures aren't impressive
Poor phone calling (hissing and robot voice)
Ugly control center
We're tired of the same old UI
No widgets
No lockscreen
No wireless charging
For some
The iPhone 6 Plus will simply be too big — too big to fit into a pocket
Too big to walk with and type with at the same time
Too big to use the way an iPhone has traditionally been used. For that
There's the iPhone 6
It's really big. Phone calling performance is just okay
Some camera issues
Expensive
No expandable storage
It's really big. Lacks T-Mobile's 700MHz band
It's really big
Especially if you're coming from an older iPhone
Testers found it too big
Camera is subpar compared to those on other high-end phones
Software
Build Quality
Design
The big footprint may not be for everybody
And the overall design is less distinctive than previous iPhones
Like all phablets
It's a handful. Mighty expensive
Large form factor limits pocketability
Onehanded use can be difficult
IOS 8 still has a few bugs
Most apps are currently scaled up to 1080P
Still no frontfacing speakers
Top and bottom bezels are rather large
Standard iPhone 6 is faster
Susceptible to bending
You call these widgets
IOS 8? I want to be able to read my email right on my home screen. It scratches. It bends
The size and design make it a tad unwieldy
Costs a kidney or two
Onehanded use is exasperating
No microSD card slot
No userreplaceable battery
NFC limited to Apple Pay
Pricey phone
Effectively requires two hands to use
Too little storage on default model
No microSD support
Nonremovable battery
Lackluster frontfacing camera
Protruding camera
Too bulky for a 5.5-inch phablet
Bad signal reception
The iPhone 6 Plus' pricing starts at $749 plus tax for a 16GB version. There is a lot to love on this phablet but I don't recommend it at the moment because it is too expen
Probably needs a case
IOS can be glitchy
Apps need to be updated to take better advantage of the display
Seriously
What is this paste icon on the landscape keyboard
IOS 8 comes with bugs and missing promised features
Call quality took a backseat this year
The slick build might prompt users to always use a case
Some users will find the large screen hard to navigate
No storage expansion
No NFCenabled Apple Pay support outside the US
This year
Apple has launched almost but not quite identical handsets apart from the screen size. We've already evalua
Battery life is underwhelming in comparison to other flagships
Camera lens sticks out
No 4K video capture
Few apps make use of the optimized landscape layout
No water resistant rating
Limited NFC use
Single
Bottomfacing speaker
Apps are yet to be updated to take advantage of the display
Health app is nearly useless at this point
NFC can only be used for Apple Pay
Complicated one-hand use
Flash overexposes pictures
Storage cannot be expanded
No LTE Cat. 6
Power adaptor too weak
Mediocre case stability
OIS makes it hard to use the iPhone on a tripod
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.

We said this in prior years with the iPhone 5 and iPhone 5s, but we'll say it again this go around; the latest iPhone (the 6 Plus, in this case) is indeed the best iPhone yet. Not only have Apple's internal upgrades delivered a phone that's fast and a ple...

The iPhone 6 Plus has some issues, yes, but it's still an amazing phone and still a flagship phone that you should consider purchasing. There are a few things that will make it a choice device for some and some things that will make it a no go for others...
