Battery life alone is why I will never go back to using a smaller phone. I'll admit that sometimes using a 5.5 inch screen with one hand can be awkward at times, but having my phone last for 3 days without seeing a charger is worth it
Went to check out the new phone and I'm bummed it feels lightweight and flimsy. Might have to get a 5S.

If I go to an Apple Store just to check out the display models, I shouldn't have to bring my battle gear to get in, should I? The chaos should have died down by now?

I walked in at lunch and there were no issues getting in to take a look. The chaos was reserved for those stuck in line.
I take back everything I said about not wanting an iPhone 6.

Now I want one more than ever.
You want an iPhone 6+. The iPhone 6 won't pull off that shot.
It's important to remember how significant OIS is, and why there's such a delta between the 6 and 6+ in photo quality. It matters even more when you start to talk about low-light photography.
So it looks like the 6+ is in really short supply. Based on my reservation number I estimate they got around a dozen for all of Canada in my model for launch.
Bell is estimating shipping in 6-8 weeks for all + models.
So, I'm guessing I'll be out of luck if I try and pick one up from Chinook tomorrow? Never tried to buy a brand new device, how long until there's regular supply?
Lol the time lapse video feature is fun. Haven't tried out the slow motion one yet.
That's awesome; I'd have a lot of fun with that.
I like the slow motion thing on my wife's 5. The kids love doing funny runs/jumps/etc. in slow motion and it gets everybody laughing. I want to do a burn out in my Mustang with the camera on the back wheel in slow motion...maybe I'll do that this weekend haha.

OK, so the 6+ is comically huge. I mean, why didn't they just re-brand the iPad mini? Problem is, I would like all of the features of 6+, just not the size. Might park myself into a 5s for a year and wait for the next revision as I'm ready to be done with my 4s because it's slow, hard to hear phone calls with, and rough around the edges.

I was up at 1am like a loser and they didn't have any available for pickup and the shortest ship time was 4-6 weeks. By getting rid of the 32gig models they convinced a lot of people to drop the extra $100 and go 64.
I liked this tweet about the 6+

The 6 Plus should be a DELIBERATE choice: high entertainment consumption & content creation. The 4.7 is a good default.

The 6+ is comically large, but if you're looking to do work on it, take photos with it, display photos with it, watch movies, write music etc. it's a very attractive option. If you're mainly using it for communication and need it to stay out of the way I see how it wouldn't be as impressive.
I have a fido reservation for a 6+ but it looks like I won't get one for awhile. I am currently month to month and negotiated a new 2 year deal to qualify for a full subsidy for the same $/mo. I have the interaction ID for the plan negotiated.
Can I reserve through Apple store and have them start the new contract at the store if I give the Apple store employee my Fido interaction #? Does the cost of the phone go on my Fido bill or do I have to pay the subsidized price in store?
