Apple iPhone 6 Plus Features
Picking your next smartphone is not a simple decision to be taken lightly. In today's techno-centric world, your smartphone is an extension of your body. You use it from the moment you wake until the end of the day when your head hits the pillow.
The iPhone 6 Plus follows the rich tradition of iPhone quality. It is distinguished by its large display. Its 5.5-inch LED-backlit widescreen Multi-Touch display with IPS technology is normally used with a 1920 by 1080 resolution. That results in a pixel density of 401 ppi, allowing for a truly HD experience. The screen is oleophobic-coated, making it fingerprint-resistant.
The 6 Plus at a glance
The 6 Plus weighs a little over 6 ounces and is 6.22 inches tall. Despite the large screen, the phone is still quite thin, measuring only 0.28 inches in thickness.
The phone has four storage options: 16GB, 32GB, 64GB, and 128GB. Users who intend on downloading a great deal of media will want to pursue the 128GB option. It is much larger than the other options, allowing users to keep all their favorite songs and many videos on their smartphones without the need for external storage cards.
The 6 Plus operates on an A8 chip with 64-bit architecture and an M8 motion coprocessor.
The energy-saving OLED screen means an extended battery life. With normal use, from one charge, you can expect up to 24 hours of talk time and up to 12 hours of internet use.
The iPhone 6 Plus comes in three different colors: silver, gold, and space gray.
Features galore
The iPhone 6 Plus was designed to impress and offers a slew of features with that aim in mind. One of the selling points of this phone is the two cameras, allowing for sharp HD photos and HD video.
Both the front-facing and the rear-facing cameras have a wide aperture of f/2.2, allowing for photos with great depth-of-field, and the front-facing camera has a 1.2-megapixel sensor while the rear-facing camera has an 8-megapixel sensor.
While both cameras offer HD video recording, the rear-facing camera offers 1080p recording while the front-facing camera offers 720p recording.

Awesome..Especially with new iOS update
I didn't know what my life was missing until I finally switched from my Nexus 5, of two years, to the iPhone 6 Plus. Not only was I able to find it on eBay at an amazingly low price for 128GB, but the features on this phone are phenomenal. I still love my Android, but I'm loving the iPhone too. With my Nexus 5, I was hard on it, and I mean HARD. I'd throw it onto surfaces, drop it (sometimes down flights of stairs), etc. Luckily I had a Tech Armor ballistic glass screen and Spigen Slim armor case on it, so my Nexus didn't have one scratch or any functionality issues, so it is still in excellent condition. The battery was noticeably not holding as good of a charge as it used to, so I decided that it was time to make the switch. I've seen friends drop their iPhone from 2 feet onto carpet and the screen was destroyed, so I'm a bit paranoid about destroying this phone, but I plan on getting Tech Armor and Spigen again, as well as being more of a gentle soul. The built in features like Night Shift, which turns the blue light on your phone to amber light, which is actually way better for your eyes, at night is great. It also has Bed Time, which tells you when you should be sleeping every night to get the amount of desired sleep. Those are only two features on the phone that don't require external applications and work beautifully. The sound and camera quality are also better. I use Bose earphones and the sound is a little crisper and the iPhone allows the sound to go up way higher than on my Nexus. I've only had this phone for a few days now, so I'm still getting used to it/discovering new features every single day, but so far, so good.

Keep coming back to iOS
Despite trying a few Android phones, I'm still most at ease with the iOS' interface. However, they still haven't fixed the home screen icon layout, you have to do a little mental Sudoku when organizing your icons if you want them to appear exactly the way you want. This is something Android wins at. One really, really dumb design is the volume and power button positions. They're parallel / directly opposite to each other so you have to re-position your fingers depending on your handedness. I wish they went back to the top down button. I'm not a power user, so the CPU and GPU specs don't mean anything to me, but they bench relatively well if you read the various tech websites. The screen is excellent; vibrant, clear, and gorgeous. Apple still retains that premium feel and sleek aesthetics. Of course, you overpay for this, but to me, it's worth it. A good Android competitor is the Sony C5 Ultra at half to a third of the cost, but you'll have to deal with caseback flexing a little and non-international bandwidths. Sony simply doesn't make a C5 Ultra model that encompasses all the major U.S. and Asian frequencies, whereas the iPhone does.

Refurbished iPhone that's like new!
I was looking into purchasing a new iphone & while researching I heard about refurbished iphones. I was hesitant due to the fact it was used & for all I knew the exterior could look awful. So I looked for iPhones that were compatible with my carrier at&t, there was a huge selection plus it stated if the exterior was in good, great or excellent condition. You could return the phone within 30 days if unsatisfied too! My phone looks brand new, one small scratch near the charging port & truly it's not noticable. The phone works great, not one issue since I've been using it. It's as if I purchased a new phone for a third of the price, it just doesn't come in the box. Big deal. I love my phone & I'm happy with my choice. I would recommend this to anyone looking to save money & get a reliable phone that will last.

Wow! Impressed! It's like I bought a new phone. Tks!
Wow! Impressed! The iphone 6 plus arrived in a plastic case inside of a sturdy, corrugated, cardboard box. It looks like new. It works like new. It came with the charger,cord and a small thing to get the sim card door open. I also like how this is a manufacturer refurbished phone and not just someone in their basement doing it. I previously had purchased a refurbished phone from someone else and it turned out not as good as this time. So, I was extra impressed when I saw how this company "Smarter.phone" went to all the extra care and expense to package and ship the phone. I was extra impressed to see the phone was in such good shape (reallly like new) and how well it works. I feel like I bought a new phone and I got it at such a good price. I cannot say enough good things about this phone and my experience.

My iPhone 6 Plus
After finally figuring out how to configure this phone, (It's not ease), things have settled down and we are able to use the phone and enjoy its features. Primarily we like the large, easy to read screen of the 6 Plus, it is fast and works very well. Since this phone (phones in general) is likely to be dropped many times, we elected to not use the iBattz back up battery case as we felt it did not provide sufficient protection for the phone. It really was a nice feature and greatly extended the battery life of the phone. Therefore we purchased a different case and sold the iBattz case on ebay. the phone was completely as advertised, in very good condition with only minor wear marks. We are quite pleased with our purchase

Great device!
I had a Nokia phone for several years (about five years ago). When it gave out, I bought this iPhone 6 Plus. It is user friendly, easy to navigate. I like the thumb print to open the phone, makes me feel safe around people. I am enjoying checking my emails when on the go and reading Yahoo news for updates about the elections and gun control issues in our country. The only thing that bothered me was losing the volume on my keypad. But, after searching via Google for answers, I was able to fix the problem and keep it from happening again, which did happen somehow. However, I know what to do in that situation. The battery life is good. I only charge it once a day at home.

Iphone 6 plus
Bought my wife this Iphone 6 plus as wanted larger screen than the old 5S. If you are an apple person, then this phone is great for it's large size for viewing as one gets older. My wife mainly carries phone in purse, so larger size is not a problem and it is much better for reading/viewing. If you are not an apple person, there are many other cheaper large phones out there. I believe some of those are better values, though the apple phones do seem to hold more of their value if one is going to sell it. Overall my wife likes this phone much better than her 5S, mainly due to size since most of features are similar between 5S and 6 Plus.

Good but have a few difficulties
I am so impressed by the price of this phone but I had/have 3 complaints about it: 1. It came 5 days after the estimated delivery date which left me worried. 2. I can't hear anything when I'm holding it up to my ear on the phone (I have to use headphones or the speaker) 3. The battery life is very low (alot less than my old iPhone 5, may just be apple) . Overall I'm quite happy with this iPhone and love the rose gold colour!

Great phone for a great price!
I could not be more pleased with this phone. It is very lightweight but the screen is nice and large. I can actually see it without my glasses! It also has a zoom feature that allows me to enlarge the content. This phone has everything. I loved that fact that it was so easy to set up and I was able to keep my phone number...super easy. It has all the latest technology with the best features. Very user-friendly. I may never need another phone.

My first iPhone and not disappointed
I used Android / Google everything. I need some Apple stuff for work to monitor Apple Maps, Siri and stuff I can't access from Android. I must say, this iPhone 6 Plus which is 2 years old already is better built, better to hold, thinner and more elegant than any of the flagship Android phones I have used. Too bad I can't put Android on it. I now realize how limited the Apple OS. It will take some getting used to.
