QUOTE(chickenshit36 @ Nov 14 2014, 09:33 AM) and yes i do agree that apps are not optimized for the 6+ (not sure about 6). most third party apps in fact. whatsapp is the worst. laggy and crashes. native apps like safari etc are working fine though. hope they can optimize it asap. I have not seen how bad those unoptimised apps fare on the 6+, but from my POV on the 6, whatsapp and waze run fine... no crash whatsoever...

QUOTE(Bigfoot-X @ Nov 14 2014, 02:19 PM) Uncle already. 35 yrs "young"  Yup, my iPhones are still "staying alive"  But I bet kids these days know the song "Staying Alive", no? That explains why... But it's also uncommon to find people your age to be interested on the Bee Gees when they should be into 90s boy and girl bands... Kids these days still know how to "Staying Alive" meh...? I thought they're into korean wave...

QUOTE(Bigfoot-X @ Nov 14 2014, 03:15 PM) OT: I listen to many genres of music except metal. Country also was excluded but some are still "acceptable". Not too country though ... I'm more into R&B, Hip Hop, maybe some trance/house/whatever it's called these days. Music by artists like Chicane. OT: Nice... But Chicane, I can't even find their CDs here... have to import... I still have not got my hands on Thousand Mile Stare CD yet...

QUOTE(Bigfoot-X @ Nov 14 2014, 04:14 PM)  I got this album in Melbourne back during my student days. Can only sync my favorites due to lack of storage space  OT: Check out this track called "Therapy" by Moderat. You may like it as well. OMG...! The interface is hideous...  What's with the white background and red fonts, I just don't get Jony's head... I still prefer iOS 6 interface... Too bad iOS 6 doesn't work on iPhone 6...

Ever heard of the phrase money is the root of all evil...?  He has too much money, thus spoil for choice, leads to indecisiveness...  Correct or not Xirality...?

QUOTE(attw @ Nov 15 2014, 04:11 PM) Ya, my usage pattern is usually unplug from charge when I wake up @ 6am and then charge at home before I call it a day, also at about 11 or 11.30pm. Problem is being in sales I'm usually not in the office most of the time, so searching frantically for a power plug while I'm out is not an option, and I dunno how true about in car chargers shortening the lifespan of the phone battery, so it's something I try to avoid. In-car chargers I assume you're talking about those you can buy off the shelf and plug into car power outlet and not those USB ports that come built into the car, right...?

QUOTE(mitodna @ Nov 15 2014, 07:51 PM) The 6 is substantially warm, really warm like using Waze warm in Nexus 5. I don't really do anything than download game on it via WiFi. WiFi mah...  If you duwan it to get warm and waste batt power, get iTunes to download your game and sync it over...

QUOTE(da3shou3 @ Nov 15 2014, 08:56 PM) I used it that way with my iP4 over like 3 and half years, battery life didn't drop much compare to when I first used the phone. I have to concur... my iPhone 4 battery still runs fine... Let's hope current iPhone 6 batteries can last that long... This post has been edited by Eithanius: Nov 15 2014, 09:07 PM

QUOTE(fruitie @ Nov 17 2014, 03:26 PM) Guys, especially those using iPhone 6. How's the battery life? I'm not really a heavy user but my WeChat, WhatsApp and Facebook must be left running in background. Besides, I also surf net and stream some short Facebook or YouTube videos. Roughly how long can your battery last with how long usage?  I know iPhone 6+ has much longer battery life but I cannot convince myself to get a phone >RM 3k (64GB)...  In addition, it is thin but the size is big, so I feel not that good in my grip. I have been using Note II previously and Note 3 now, so the size is not a problem but just that 6+ is too thin... I hope I won't regret of buying iPhone 6, instead of 6+...  Auntie fruitie... Screenshot below - iPhone 6, slightly over 1/4 batt usage after unplugging midnite, moderate browsing, moderate whatsapp, music for over an hour, light games...
You might need to adjust a bit going to smaller screen though if you take iPhone 6... This post has been edited by Eithanius: Nov 17 2014, 04:21 PM

QUOTE(666devil @ Nov 17 2014, 06:57 PM) See? So many ask u get 6+. Since u coming from Note series, it's a no brainier decision. Just get a thin grip casing like spigen neo hybrid and tie a short lanyard to ur hand through the casing will give u nice 1 hand operation. Trust me la. I am from s4. Using i6+ a week now. No regrets with all the advantages. haha... you guys like 6+ so much, I feel like getting a bit regret buying 6...  looks like i cannot spam and lurk around here dy...

QUOTE(heliora10 @ Nov 17 2014, 08:54 PM) been using the iPhone 6 for more than a week now, so far i'm not impressed with the battery life. not really using it heavily and it's down to 20% in less than 10 hours. Don't be fool by the Standby Time of less than 10 hours... It's the Usage Time that counts. It's just that you use your phone more often in a day than some other people in 2 days... Just like your car with your petrol tank. It can go up to 400km every tank, but if you drive it long distance every day (USAGE TIME), you end up using fuel much more FASTER than those market ladies who drive their cars short distance to market only (the rest being STANDBY TIME)...
