Seem like 6 give a better performance than 6+ with exception of battery life and more lag-free. Which mean 6 gives a better future proof than 6+?

But I remember the poll last time was 50-50 for 6 and 6 plus. I believe there are still many ppl who would like to get an iPhone struggle between these two. haha

QUOTE(Altel @ Dec 25 2014, 09:23 AM) QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ Dec 25 2014, 09:40 AM) The only difference between the two is that the iPhone 6 Plus features optical image stabilization (OIS) while its smaller counterpart does not. Personally i dont see much difference though. Ya I agreed with TOMEI, many reviews also stated there is not much difference between 6 and 6+ camera. The real difference is the screen estate and battery life. Seriously hope the sluggishness in 6+ will be solved soon. |

QUOTE(clawhammer @ Dec 26 2014, 03:04 PM) I've been using iPhone since 3GS and historically, all latest iPhones are very fluid and smooth with the latest iOS. There wasn't one generation that has any form of "sluggish" except the 6+ now. One of the key reason why I prefer iPhone is because of it's "smoothness" and responses are spot on, snappy. Of course I would love that the 6+ have these characteristics as well OMG, that's really a bad news for ppl like me who is going to get an Iphone 6 Plus. Sigh |

QUOTE(fruitie @ Dec 30 2014, 09:45 AM) Guys, I know this is iPhone thread but it's more active here and I'm also using iOS 8 now. Wow, congrats fruittie, you already got your own 6+ from SenQ? Haha remember give us some feedback of your 6+ user experience. What happened to my keyboard ya? I woke up this morning and it doesn't display suggested words on the screen anymore. Usually they will appear at the top of the keyboard. I have tried rebooting and shutting down yet doesn't help. Appreciate your assistance. Now the upper part is empty as I type along... ![]() |

QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ Jan 5 2015, 11:29 PM) Charging will be slower through usb charging through your pc compared to your normal charger. Normally need to leave at what % level of battery for charging?Battery health depends on how frequent you charge your battery and what level of charge is left in your battery before you charge it. I dont think slower charging via usb affects battery life. |

QUOTE(ftan @ Jan 7 2015, 09:45 AM) I'm leaning towards buying i6+ from Apple online store as I did for the i5 and i5s. The buying process is very familiar to me and I'm comfortable with the level of service Apple gives. Will wait for the red sale. Take the cheapest plan from the telco you preferred. However, most telco running out of stock since day 1 iPhone 6/6plus released at Malaysia. And your warranty claim (which I hope don't happen to us) need to go through them. And you have to wait a long time for them to solve it for you. But if price is no issue for you and you already have the current phone plan you're satisfied with, get from apple online is the best option.On the other hand, buying from Maxis (or other telcos) will allow 0% EPP without any hidden fees and at a subsidized price. This is also attractive to me. But my usage is quite low on the data plan (mostly using wifi) and calls. Hard to decide. |

QUOTE(alvinwh @ Jan 9 2015, 01:20 PM) Yes it is quite a huge difference between battery life of 6 and 6 plus. Almost double. Depend on your usage tho, if you're sitting in the office type of person and not really a power user, it will works fine since you can charge it at your office if the battery die during mid-day. With tight budget, you have to adjust your lifestyle to fit with the battery life of iPhone 6 I would say. |

QUOTE(decavalera @ Jan 11 2015, 07:54 AM) Should be normal. About 12GB space for the iOS. Thanks man for the feedback! So just right out of the box what should I check to ensure it is in perfect condition? Thanks bro for such informative site, i agree with the phone's IMEI number, you didnt got you much info. But if you put in the serial no, you'll got a very detail info about your phone. Mine was manufactured in week 41. About 3 to 4 weeks before i bought during the boleh land launching day. Previously, i use this apple website provided yrs ago by bros in this forum too to check the authenticity of my iphones/ipads etc |

QUOTE(G-17 @ Jan 11 2015, 11:07 AM) First you check if it's bent :-P Really appreciate for your reply! First I think it is not bend. I guess the screen and finish is fine since the moment it out from the box already put on a temporary screen protector. Dont have any rattle sound. Dont have screen life issue as well I guess. I am now looking for any dead pixel got some issue here due to the screen protector is being attached already lol. Just unplug this morning will see how it goes for the battery usage. Will post here again. Thanks again for your help! Btw which site link you mentioned and how to see whether it match or not? Then you check the screen and finish, angling it in as many angles as possible (pattern liao-liao, as the Ah Beng's say). Then you shake it listen for rattles. Soft rattle from mute switch being a bit loose is not a problem (Apple won't exchange it for you anyway), but if it's anything louder (like Mat Rempit exhaust) then you probably have a problem. Then you gently press the sides of the screen to check for screen lift issues. If all is good, you turn it on and at the white "Hello/Hola/Blah-Blah" screen, you look carefully for dead-pixels. Then you set up your device and perform a Software Update first. Then you test the headphone jack, camera, speakers. Then you use the phone like usual and see if got any issues. For me, the first time I'll use it until the battery totally dies, then charge (it will turn itself on once you connect the charger, but I just turn it off again and let it charge while off for a few hours). Then you use it kaw-kaw. If everything still okay, you do the Macarena!! Btw, thanks for that site link. Just checked my unit. Everything seems to match. |

QUOTE(decavalera @ Jan 11 2015, 03:19 PM) Errr.. Do you mean this? Week xx? It's in the link that you provided earlier. Instead of using the IMEI no, use the serial no to get this info Oh no wonder I typed IMEI and I can't get those info. Haha. Mine was week: 49 (01.12 - 07.12), so this is the week my iPhone was manufactured? The factory is FK3 but didn't state which country lol. Age 1 month. |
