How much better is the screen on the 6+ than the 6? Are all the "PPI doesnt matter on a phone" a bunch of lies? Or does it really benefit that much from 1080p?
 
When I was at the Apple store yesterday. Most people were purchasing the 6 over the 6+. But there were also those who also bought the 6+ to sell on.
 
Had an initial delivery date of 30/09/2014 - 03/10/2014 from Apple directly. Expected delivery is now this coming Monday. Happy days!! 16GB iPhone 6 Space Grey
 
I purchased both a 6 (for the wife) and 6+ (me).

Having used both now for 24 hours I think for me quite clearly I am returning the 6+ and ordering a 6 64GB.

The reasons for this are:

1. Its massive. I doubt anyone can use it constructively for any purpose with one hand.

2. Yes it fits in a pocket, but it is still huge and when you put it to your face to have a 'phone' conversation you look like a total muppet (sorry didn't really want to sugar coat it)!

3. The screen on the 6 is not significantly different to the plus (yes the plus screen is gorgeous but in my eyes doesn't justify lugging it around).

4. The battery on the plus is epic but the 6 is significantly better than my 5 so I guess even if I have to charge it once during the day, no big deal.

5. Games on the 6 plus actually seem to struggle with the screen. There was noticeable lag in Asphalt 8 for example. I am sure they will get better with time.

I am returning despite the better half telling me that I should get the 6 (not the plus) before I ordered. So I am not going to hear the end of that! That should tell you something about the scale of the decision!

This could be due to the scaling, e 6+ display will run at 3x 736*414 which is 2208*1242 and then it uses maths to downsample it too 1080p so it means everything has to go through this maths to show up on your display and is an extra overhead ontop of rendering at 1080p
