iPhone 6 Plus: Most Common Questions Answered!

[@tested]

Do you upgrade your iPhone every year (if you have an iPhone), or do you wait for big updates first?

[@lifewithdestiny648]

Yes I upgrade every year

[@hads5279]

I have very small hands and the 6 Plus still feels comfortable. I want it for the camera features, battery life and screen. The only thing I'm worried about is whether or not I'll be annoyed with not being able to use it with one hand.

[@rickfrancismusic]

I am shocked at how much people are wondering about whether the iPhone 6+ will bend! People... Get a life! Anything is breakable! Just a little bit of common sense and consideration for a piece of technology... Yes! The iPhone 6+ is breakable. Very, very breakable. So is your heart. So is the front left tire on your car. Get over this bending thing. Holy crap. I am amazed at how obsessed some of you are about the iPhone "bending"! It's laughable! Think about it for a minute. "Is the iPhone going to bend?" Give me a break. Life is short. If you respect ANY technology that you actually have to pay for, then, this should not be an issue. Most of these ridiculous questions come from kids who don't have to pay for the phone in the first place. So many kids have so much technology thrown in their laps, and then they want even more. Just respect what you have and be grateful. Some people today in parts of the world don't even know where their next sip of clean safe water is coming from. Think about that for a second. (Sorry...rant over.)

[@ccrr96]

It's all the Android fanboys that need to complain about anything that is not an Android phone. I' writing this in my Samsung phone and I still think it's pathetic for people to get into these keyboard wars about which device is better. People need to always complain about something, figured out the best thing is to just ignore them or wait for them to grow up

[@yujinj2903]

+ccrr96 Of course the Android phone you mention has to be a Samsung branded one....

[@ccrr96]

Jack T I'm not really into this life lol... whats wrong with Samsung phones? My S5 has been working clean for almost a year now

[@shoponline831]

I had that fear and I just got over it. I put a glass screen protector and an otterbox case. And I make sure I don't sit on my phone and I'm good

[@BullshotDarts]

i want that phone. i dont care that is bends, im not an idiot that would get his phone bent.

[@ThomasWeitgraven]

Haha it bends under a huge amount of pressure I have mine for an month now you can get it without any problems (i just recommend a case cause the slippery aluminium)

[@BullshotDarts]

yeah ive had mine for over a month now and love the hell out of it.

[@blacksabbathm7173]

***** I'm upgrading my phone in like a month or two, would you recommend the 6 plus, and a good case if you have one?

[@BullshotDarts]

Black Sabbath \m/ yeah i love mine, i just got one of those basic clear cases for it off amazon. im super careful with my technology though so i dont need much protection

[@blacksabbathm7173]

***** Thanks for the info, I just ordered a 6 Plus from AT&T and I also ordered a 15 dollar protective case for it, too. I'm also pretty careful with technology but other people use my phone sometimes too.

[@RohanVirdi]

which keyboard you use for landscape mode ? can u please tell me . ? thanks

[@xxcharmed1xx]

It's simple people.. stop wearing tight jeans that don't fit you. Don't put it in your jean pockets. Will not bend! Voila!

[@MakelBelieve]

Only if you're fat person !!! I'm Thin doesn't bend

[@Vixikats]

Kinda been leaning into getting an iPhone instead of an Android this time around. As a software developer, Android is a much easier OS to program for, which is nice and all, but I've always like Apple products because they're just really solid platforms. Are they a bit overrated? Well, yes, they are, but they work at 100% right out of the box and you rarely have the problems or persistent bugs that you have with Android, but that's what happens when you let phone manufacturers write their own software packages, so you have to blame the manufacturers for that mistake, not the Android OS as a whole. Let the flame war start. I like both sides for different reasons. Sue me.

[@Tyson007ian]

Don't get the iPhone 6, as an Apple user I think the iPhone 6 sucks and I'm really disappointed with apple, I personally recommend the 5s or wait for the 6s.

[@Vixikats]

***** I did say AN iPhone, not which one. ;P

[@mikeguzmansr]

B ki vevcjhhhevvebb

[@SungHyunKim1]

Apple sues you for saying "iPhone." Redo lupus

[@Tyson007ian]

Somberdon AN iPhone includes the Iphone 6, so im recommending you not to get that one.

[@MichaelNNguyen]

I love my iPhone 6 Plus Space Gray, the iPhone 5s look so tiny now.

[@54545flipperdipper]

Your a liar

[@brushlessmicrot]

Same here. I love my iPhone 6. A close family member also has the 6 plus, no bending, he upgraded from the Note 3, and apparently really likes it.

[@JesusSalazar-jg6xp]

AppleTechReviews My pops has the Note 3 I rooted for him, but he likes the note because he messes with it so much. He downloads music videos and movies and puts them on an SD card. I would think he'd like simplicity but I guess not. Lol. He finds it more unrestricted, which he is right.

[@MichaelNNguyen]

You're a liar.

[@SDPP23]

so, i got my iphone 6 plus 5 days ago and till now im just loving this phone! its like a mini mini ipad that have allmost infinite battery! in the first 2 days of use i charged 3 times because i was like all time using and playing and downloading apps but now using the phone normally the battery give me allmost 2 days normal use! thats super cool! the bending rumor for now for me is a rumor i use it on my pocket with some attencion to it because i dont really know if it bends or not but in my opinion it could bend because alluminium is extrmelly maleable material, plastic is a lot harder then alluminium but the pro of it is that is really pretty and people/products cant have durability and design in their max potencional at the same time! the display is just perfect, i can use it and type really good and i have small hands, so anyone can use it really good if u have the power to change your ways to be able to use it. i dont know how it is in america with the prices but in europe the iphone 6 plus unlocked is expensive but if u like to have a mini mini ipad with u all time that make calls and send sms just get it! is the best smartphone i had till now and i had iphones, samsung galaxys and this one for now is the number one!

[@drewqqq]

I love your reviews guys! Actual impressions on what it is like to use the device daily instead of showing whats in the box and then listing of the specs.

[@azaliah6812]

Is it worth upgrading from iPhone 4s to iPhone 6?

[@annalomb]

+Azalia Heredia In my opinion, yes. You might have to get used to a bigger size, but the software is better. (I recently upgraded from 4s to 6)

[@MokePops]

Nah

[@laurencox388]

yes do it, i did and I love the 6

[@sanha5191]

Yes totally.

[@pinkxan4x]

Azalia Heredia yes!

[@alaskankare]

What worries me with protruding cameras is whether it will get scuffed sticking out more?

[@Kafen8d]

I've owned an Android phone (currently the Nexus 6) for around 5 or so years. But still to this day, the new iPhones, since about the iPhone 4 have been the best looking smart phones from literally anywhere.

[@hads5279]

I currently have the 5c, but the screen is popping out of the device and dirt and hair is getting under the screen.

[@nickj4785]

Heather Crutchley I have the same problem with my 5s ''/

[@nickj4785]

Eren Yager Why did you have so many iphones in so few years??

[@ushira_dharmaratne]

+Niklas asking the "real"questions here lol

[@MarkR973]

I have the new iphone 6 plus n i must say its really nice! It works great for what i use it for, which is texting n tweeting n watching videos n cruisin the internet n listening to music. Its very high end in terms of quality w good battery life n its really fast. Its size is easy to get used to cause its light n thin. The whole bend gate thing is way over blown by sensationalist. Its a great phone, if you like iphone, its the one to get.... U wont be disappointed. Mine is space gray w black front n 128gb.. Its not a tablet replacement in my opinion but its awesome as the big screen will suck u in.

[@ivanvargas9994]

Does yours takes forever to charge ?? 😩

[@harisijaz8383]

what about the colour?

[@MarkR973]

color is subjective... i like how seamless the front looks in black

[@spicy110]

Will it bend? Lol

[@shanedriveinit]

omg spicy! loool was you thinking of getting an iPhone 6 back then or have you upgraded already? Haven't seen you making any videos about your phone apart from the one that you spoke about your 5 or 4s ?

[@Drew_621]

The solution to the bending is to just get a case!

[@rickfrancismusic]

Dhruv Thakkar The solution to the bending is just a little bit of common everyday respect for a cellphone that cost a few hundred dollars. I don't see what all the fuss is about, but I am an old guy. 64 years old and I am still using guitar instrument cables that I bought back in 1969. I also have guitar picks that I bought back in 1980. And my only slide (for slide guitar work) I bought in 1969. I am worried about today. People get worried about so many things. Life is short. Just take care of your stuff. Everything is breakable... even life itself! Feel blessed to breathe the air today. Your cellphone is breakable. Just be careful with it. It's simple.

[@Drew_621]

***** Very true.

[@domenicoooooo]

He was about to open Safari, then he was like, "Nah, don't wanna show what I was looking at"

[@NBSV1]

I think the bending is overblown. Besides any smart phone I get is going straight into a case anyway. I drop my phone and generally have them in a less than friendly environment. So a case is a must.

[@rickfrancismusic]

Re: the iPhone bending thing... Why is anybody talking about this? If you take a hammer to a windshield and slam it real hard, you might break the windshield. If you try real hard to break your iPhone 6+, you will find a way to break it. I honestly don't understand the wasted noise online about the bending of the iPhone. Seriously, is that an issue in real life? These devices were not meant to be broken. They were meant to be respected as breakable technology and thereby taken care of. What is with this bending thing?! This (to me) comes from kids who have their parents buy everything for them and they don't give a shit about any consequences from lack of respect for what they are given. To me, it's simple. Respect your iPhone and don't sit on it or do anything that is going to break it! Give me a break! LOL

[@garrettcook9012]

1:00, he just summed up what every android user thinks about when they pick up the older iphones. tiiinnnnyyyy

[@nagol5178]

Mine does not slip out of my hands, I have a rubber type case on it that is very thin. It feels very good. It compliments it well. It also has a kick stand that pops out on the back which is useful for putting it on a desk and selecting songs to play through a bluetooth device, or to watch movies. It plays movies the same size as the iPad mini. Because the iPad mini has the letterbox and the iPhone is 16:9. The battery life is far superior to the previous iPhone.

[@annalomb]

Oh my god. The ad. there was this phone and it was falling down the stairs but if you looked it was on texts and it said, "mom ran over grandma." lololol

[@girlzaloud5599]

I have the 6 plus with a speck candyshell grip case and a glass screen protector which is great no sign of bending what so ever and with the case it is very easy to hold

[@mainematt1234]

I like the new shooting location (this office) - but there is glare and reflection! Nice job guys,.

[@Xephrey]

Finally, someone that knows of Dubble! Even better; someone with a following! I've emailed the dev (some Dutch guy) asking what the chances of an update were back when the iPhone 5 was new. He wrote back that there's not enough demand for it. You should use your celebrity to push for it. Send him an email and offer a sponsor spot or something.

[@TimWhiteRailProductions]

I love my iPhone 6 plus it takes good videos and pictures I love it great sound system etc

[@the_radha-krsna_temple]

i like it..it gives many solutions for iphone 6 users.

[@michael999717]

does it bend?

[@florianbecker8312]

U so great doing the test!!!

[@Wordsnwood]

So, are you guys going to check out / review the new Blackberry Passport also? That new square screen is certainly different.

[@nagol5178]

The image stabilization does matter. It makes a huge a difference.

[@djswfteofficial]

What about the call quality?? Good or bad??

[@yujinj2903]

Should be good,it has Voice Over LTE.Calls should sound amazing if the person on the other end also has Voice Over LTE (VoLTE.)

[@Chistoefur]

Too bad people are paying a premium for a poorly constructed brick. Since, you know, iOS 8.0.1 breaks service signal. 

[@MrAlpha2095]

that's nitpicking, that update was live for a few hours only and was patched after one day.

[@JohnFAlmqvist]

When hearing the news about the bent iPhone 6 plus I took a look at my 5s and I actually noticed it was a bit bent when i placed it on a flat surface. I have no doubt the 6 plus will bend after some use, as it is far larger, thinner and lighter than my 5s.

[@ItsFlashAndNova]

Is it possible to have a video about Apple devices and not have people screaming "ANDROID IS BETTER, SAMSUNG IS BETTER!"? Like its an opinion not a fucking fact. Grow up.

[@symmetricalastic]

@tested does it really bend in your pocket?

[@vetemmarrina6360]

my question: is it worth it? i mean, i want to buy a new phone but i dont know if i should wait for 6s and note 4 and see comparisons of them

[@nagol5178]

I'm glad we have android users to test stuff for us and Apple doesn't even have to pay them. Android test big screens, features, etc. And then Apple takes those features and perfects them and gives them to us! And we get a better version of those features in much nicer phones. Android users always say, "We got it first," but when we get it, we get it perfected.

[@thearabicdp]

you should use that slow mo raspberry with a dubstep track

[@astro143_]

The sensor is a software update. My 5s is a lot more responsive at unlocking since the update.

[@Nichoalsziv]

the raspberry you blew looks like some marine animal feeding

[@bugzkilla]

*Will it bend?* Yes :)

[@keithjohnson1998]

Oh snap

[@Steady260]

I was about to write that!

[@LoadedTunafish]

*No, but it will bend*

[@josejaimealvarezduran1474]

I love this iPhone! What color is the one that you're using for this video!?

[@baileyr8576]

Space grey :)

[@ShazWag]

I also bought both he 6 and 6+ and am keeping them both in order to see which one I really want to keep as it's a big investment for a phone. I'm a 51 year old grandma btw... not that this should make any difference apart from the bigger screen being more favourable to my diminishing eyesight ^_^ Anyways, I really wanted to get an iPad mini and my old 4S wasn't performing as well as it used to, which is annoying at work as I need it in my job. So yeah... when this phone/iPad micro, or 'phablet' came out I thought, that's it! However, the first thing that I noticed is that the 6+ didn't feel as stable in the hand as I'd like; very slippery and the rounded edges make it slip n slide like a bar of soap. It looks sleek, but practicality is more important to me than aesthetics. So I'm getting used to it and also adapting as that's what humans are meant to be good at. The 6 does fit nicely into all the phone pockets of my bags/purses though the 6+ is a struggle. I do love the big screen though! Ugh... I wish Apple just did the right thing and made a 5" screen - that would've been perfect! (1st world problems, I know). What does your wife think about the 6+ ? Also, have you noticed that the screen goes black for a second after opening Facebook? Hmmm... to 6 or to 6+ ? that is the question :/ I have until Tuesday to decide coz my 14 days are up then. By the way... what does Apple do with all the returns? I know so many people that bought both phones to try out. Sorry this is long.

[@TheLastBackyardaigan]

if I become a new iPhone user , does it come with a SIM card or do I have to buy one ?

[@RitaGreen]

Good talk guys.

[@MarkR973]

It doesnt seem to take long to charge but i think it can be expected to take longer than older iphones due to its size.. Check ur usage n see whats eating ur battery life then u can manage those items to preserve battery life..

[@BocookGaming]

... It's so hypnotic...

Why when someone calls the answer button changes?? Sometimes tap to answer and sometimes swipe to answer??

Can we get that same high speed video but with Jamie Hyneman instead of Will?

[@christopherjay355]

does it has the feature that iPads have where you can pull the keyboard apart?

[@dgisgd]

Will it Blend ?

[@ScepticMisanthropist]

I'd love to see apple update the 4S hardware as a small handset option. The iPhone 6 gens are much too large for how I like to use my phone.

[@mariaalfetheacurambao2269]

home button is starting to make an odd, hollow tinny noise when I press it, almost like an echo inside the phone.

[@steve708822]

You can see the cameraman in the reflection all the way through the video :-)

[@macboerTV]

nice little vid. thanks.

[@TheoGregoire]

TouchID. How do you feel its implementation on the 6 Plus compares to the fingerprint implantation on the Huawei Ascend Mate7?

[@masonkenway2709]

just a few days ago i bought an iphone 5c rather then the 6. did i make the right choice?

[@masonkenway2709]

k thanks i will buy an iphone 6 next time i think

[@bwspyder1]

apple basically said, lets copy every android feature, give it a new name and say we came up with it.

[@jamesgrimwood1285]

Apple and Google really need to come up with better user interfaces. "Massive scrolling grid of icons" is terrible. It's like the Windows desktop of someone who doesn't understand what "My Documents" is for. And the annoying lack of scrollbars means we have to do the stupid "hold phone sideways, swipe like crazy" gesture to scroll back through things like Twitter or long webpages.

[@90210spike]

How did you get your Iphone 6 screen to rotate the home screen? You kept saying that it was and IPhone 6 not the 6+ but your home screen rotates..

[@daniel55645]

i with the iphone 6 still had the flat sides like the 4 and 5 had.i liked that.

[@desertdiva9771]

I don't like the power button placement on the 6 plus. I keep hitting the volume button when I hit the power button. They should have left the the power button on the top. Suggestion....get a good protective case and it won't slip out of your hands and it will protect the camera. The case will also make it lie flat.

[@BullitCake]

why so many haters. I like my iphone 6, live and let live man. I never talked shit bout any android phones...

[@mohammadelshihabi]

Quick dump question. Can it bend if its in an apple leather or silicon case ?

[@beevang3197]

No

[@stellacami6922]

Hi what is the meaning of the arrow that appears right next to the battery in the iPhone 6 Plus ???

[@imserious2187]

Can u turn off the screen orientation or does it always shift from landscape to portrait?

[@imserious2187]

No, I'm referring to turning it off so the home screen stays in portrait mode, but other screens like when browsing the Web still turns to landscape mode

[@EquinoxElite]

I wanted to see the humming birds D:

[@__Lopps]

I think the iPhone 6 plus is just way to big for me. I remember going to Verizon and the salesman showed me it, and my hands were like "no" lol. The iPhone 6 has been perfect for me so far.

[@dan55178]

Great slow mo video, shame it was focused on the background.

[@d1gszmusic]

Good video

[@richardbutt7321]

I see you camera man... lurking there.

[@listofromantics]

Hmmm.... Can you install and run iOS on and Android smartphone? Like running a Hackintosh.

[@georgethegreek1966]

How does the iphone 6 plus compare to the S5 for font size on apps. ON the S5 when I increase the fonts it increases the fonts in all apps including The Score Mobile which I use a lot. How does the Iphone 6 plus handle this situation?

[@SaladorLeonCruz]

Why does your keyboard do that? When you have it landscape, the keyboard should be an "expanded" keyboard that has more buttons, not just a bigger version of the portrait keyboard.

[@African-Baby]

is there a difference with the emoji icons
