I bought both, but I settled on the Plus, coming from a Sony Z1 I'm used to a bit of length, the rounded edges make it easier to hold, and it don't fell as big as the Z1.

Now I need to sell the 6.

Picked up my silver 6 at 8:30 only had to wait 10 mins. I ordered a spigen Ultra Hybrid case last week fits well and looks good. Cant moan for £10.

Phone wise not had chance to play with it yet. But looks good so far

Ukmail just called to say they attempted delivery but aren't permitted to leave with a neighbour and I'm not going home tonight. 1 hour round trip to the depot tomorrow AM then! Even more annoying is I've got to go home first to get the card, even though the depot is on my way home!!

Indeed.

Can someone give me a single reason why the 6 is better than the 5s? The only difference seems to be the size.

Don't get me wrong; I'm a massive fan of Apple and I use their laptops, desktops, tablets and phones but as a current iPhone 5 user who is due an upgrade, what will I achieve by going for the 6 over a 5s with iOS8 installed?
Very little difference between the two - http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=6378...

To be fair, you *do* get used to the bigger screen. I went from an HTC Desire to my current (and now goosed) Galaxy S3 and I honestly wouldn't go back.

The extra screen DOES make surfing, writing emails etc so much nicer. Yes, there are trade offs in terms of the phone being a bit bigger in the hand, but overall, worth it for the extra screen space.

Having said that, I was recently mulling over whether to go from the S3 to an iPhone 5S instead of a 6, due to the smaller form factor but I think I'm going to go for the 6.

Going into the apple store tomorrow for a play to make up my mind.

Missed out on the pre-orders and couldn't get the morning off from work to go queue up.

What are the chances I can walk into a Carphone Warehouse/EE store this evening and pick a 64gb 6 up?

If you want a contract then you'll be able to - CPW, EE, Voda, O2 all have stock. None would sell me a sim-free one earlier, though, they all wanted to sign me up to a contract.
