Trying to weigh the options on which one to get. I'd like to get the 6s Plus but I just don't know if it's too big to carry around. So used to just putting my 5s in my jacket pocket or going jogging with it. The 6s Plus seems like it could be a little more cumbersome.

For you guys who got the 6 Plus, did you adapt pretty quickly to it? Is the increase in size worth it?

Size increase is weird at first (twss) but you really get used to it and i have fairly averaged size hands and i can easily type with one hand with some adjustment. It's pretty incredibly thin and the battery life is the main reason i switched from the 6 to the 6 Plus. It's like night and day.

I wouldn't go jogging with it but then again I just use a cheap little sandisk mp3 player so i don't have to worry about keeping my phone case from getting all sweaty or it being too bulky in my pocket when i run

I've got the 6+ and have no issues with the size at all. I'm contemplating going down to the 6S over the 6S+, but haven't decided yet.

The plus is too big for pockets IMO. It's a purse phone. Sure it'll fit, but it's awkward and bulkier than is comfortable.

I got the 6+, it's big but you can get used to it. I haven't been able to text one handed as easily. I just adapted to use 2 hands. However, since I recently got an iPad, I find that I don't need he 6+ for games, videos, etc and I plan to downsize next iPhone purchase.

That's kind of my situation as well. I wouldn't have ponied up for the 6+ if I had already had an iPad. I'm not going to bother upgrading until the 7 generation though, my 6+ is still a great phone and does everything I need.

Stop wearing skinny jeans. It fits fine in my pocket.

I bought the 6 plus at release and thought it was really big but I held on to my 5 for a while. After a couple of days when I picked up my 5 it felt like it was tiny and my whole hand wrapped around it. You'll get used to it quick.

Do you think it will fit in my fanny pack?

The best benefit of the 6 plus is the battery life IMO. It will last 2 days with normal use.
