Is it worth the extra (battery and OIS) to wait for the plus? I'm considering cancelling my preorder and just going and picking up a 6 at lunch.

Anyone done the same? Regrets? Or does anyone have a Plus and wish they wouldn't have gotten such a big phone?

I had the intention if getting the plus until I went in store. Just too much phone for me and I didn't want to wait until frigging thanksgiving. I picked up a six on launch day afternoon and haven't looked back. It's great even coming from a 5S.

Depending on what specifically you want you should be able to get the 6 that you want in a day or two of looking.

If I was going to get a 6 I'd get the gray/128gb. They have it in the Apple store about 2 miles from me right now. That is the dilemma. I can go get this phone within 10 minutes.

I wanted the plus for the better battery and the image stabilization on the camera mostly. The bigger screen was possibly a plus but I'm not sure.

"LOL JK! Your iPhone is on its way!"

... but no such luck

I am set on the 6+ though. The 6 is nice, but when I look at and play with it, I feel like I want a larger version. Note: I haven't actually held the 6+ yet, but like I said when I toy with the six,it makes me feel good about going a tad larger.

Yeah I wanted OIS and the battery too, but when I thought about it, having those two things really wasn't worth waiting for and paying an extra $100 for. And the larger phone had the downside of completely killing one handed use for me personally.

I also wanted the higher res screen but I honestly could not tell the difference looking at them both for 5 minutes.

All in all the plus wasn't worth it to me. It's a georgeous wonderful device but I honestly would have passed had they had them in stock.

The good news for you is that 128 GBs are the easiest size to get, so you don't have to rush into a decision.

I got the plus and love it. It's big but not ridiculous IMO

I went up there a little while ago and just so happens there was a guy in line returning his 6+. I talked to him and he said it was just way too big for practicality. He took it out of the box and I messed with it and decided then and there what I was going to do.

My brand new 6 is sitting here on my desk waiting for my backup of my old phone to be done and then I'll restore it to those settings.

So glad I went up there. I would have been pretty displeased with the 6+ for sure.

Went to Apple store today at 10am, long line...no 6+.

Went to AT&T at mall, they had neither one.

Went to Best Buy...BAM! They had no 6 but had 3 6+ that they got in the night before. I bought two 64g outright and went at&t store, traded old phones in and had both new ones activated for myself and the wife.

I've got smaller hands. Picked up a 6+ yesterday. I'm already pretty good at one hand useage. No regrets waiting.

I ordered the 6-64GB black on 9/25 and it's set to be delivered monday. Pretty quick considering I ordered after the launch.
