iPhone 6 & iPhone 6 Plus Review: Is Bigger Better? | Molly Wood | The New York Times

Great review as a note 3 user and an iPad user, this put all perspectives in view. The 6 plus is going to be a huge phone taller than the niche market note 3 and 4. The flagship spec should have been the iPhone 6 or at least make both equal. All the excuses I heard from iPhone users about the note series will now be consigned to exactly what they were, excuses and screen envy. Am I impressed with IOS8 well not really, does what it says on the tin, but it’s still the same OS Jobs conceived for the masses and computer non literate. Not to say that’s a bad thing, most of us grew up on PC’s designed for office use brought into the home.
It just means that the next generation will be less computer literate than the last. No file structure on IOS even your Granny can use it. Will I buy an iPhone 6, for an easy life, maybe if I can keep my feet in both camps. But the nexus X may be the one to watch.
double tap the space bar and it will put a . and th end of your last word 🙂
One of the best reviews so far. Many if the other reviews fail to mention it’s shortcomings when it comes to competitors like the Samsung Note. Let’s be honest, the iPhine 6 plus missed out on a lot of opportunities be not doing more with the big screen.
While I really just wanted a larger screen and will be getting the 6 plus, many people I talk to wish it more than just a bugger iPhone.
Amazing review.
Read your mail dammit.
iPhone now lets you use other keyboards so that point is null and any old stylus works with the iPhone so thats no biggie
there is no denying that samsung make awesome phones and I’m an iPhone user, i really like the way samsung take advantage of the big screen, with just the small things, but makes a big difference, that being said, i have quite a few apple devices so i love the way apple has integrated all its devices seamlessly and I’m a little iffy on third party apps, so for me its the iPhone 6 plus, to be honest, I’m not a hardcore user so apples specs are good enough for me.
Very good and unbiased review .
Aren’t you from cnet Molly
Haha. "Because i’m old"
lady… you can make a period on iphone by double touching the space bar. You dont need a peiod button
What a miracle
This made my Saturday!
Hey Molly. Nice to see you doing a video! Haven’t watched you since Always On. Great. You are the best!!!!
Yea yea yea people so hit the space bar for period, but what about the comma when in upright mode?
FAIL
Molly! I’m glad your back on YouTube!
"I like it because I’m old" – I loved that
"because I’m old…" But smoking hot!!! Finally a decent sized screen for all the Apple drones. Congrats.
I miss Molly Wood from Cnet!
I love love my iPhone 6 plus Molly is so dumb!!! Take with Android
You’re a moron! I’m sorry. The reachability feature is not made to use the phone like that all the time, it’s for tapping something at the top like the ‘edit’ button on the photos app… And get back to normal size, because if you want to reply an email, just use the normal size!
Molly!! I’ve missed you so much! 🙂
I’m just gonna stick with my 5s cuz if I wanted a bigger screen I would have kept my galaxy
My mom is going from the 5 to the 6 Plus. Idk how she’s gonna do it. Maybe Apple should take hints from LG and make a 5.5 inch phone with tiny bezels so it’s still practical…
I guess it is enough because there all sold out!
Great review. Missed you Molly.
I’m getting the 6, so excited!
keeping my iPhone 4S. Mo screen size, mo problems.
Great review Thank you
iPads are really just big IPhones
u keep talking about size, all the while it gets bigger & bigger!! juss let me know!!! call me.
Although Apple might not take advantage of the bigger screen size until a further software update, I have faith in there developers doing so a lot sooner. Can’t wait for my 6+ to arrive.
"because I’m old…" But smoking hot!!! Finally a decent sized screen for all the Apple drones. Congrats.
Apple cannot make something like S-pen on iPhone. This is the screen feature or limitation. Multitask is almost impossible due to the OS system. However, according to my experience, android phones become super slow after using them for a couple months and iPhone runs still fast. Laggy is really annoying.
Very good review
Yes that’s all it is bigger nothing else!
Molly Wood, kudos for having an objective view point on the new iPhone’s. Surprising how so many so called jurno’s (talking about you on Bloomberg) are biased and unfortunately it shows in their reporting. Keep it up!
And just like that I’m getting the note 4 big is cool but what else does it do apple huh?!?!
This is probably one of the better unbiased reviews for the iphone 6/plus, great review! I agree with just about everything. This is why i’m getting a note 4, its bigger with things that you should be able to do with a bigger device. All in all Apple has finally made a good phone in over 4 years that will indeed take some android users in
Love Apple products, in fact I own a lot of their products but boy, are they getting behind on the mobile world?, so much that I just not sure if I want to keep buying them.
She’s biased
Pause at 2:57 to see a derpy molly
You got a point about the 6+ it would have been better if they add some features like the GS note.
Thier Getting closer to the Galaxy Note2 that’s why I’m going to get a GALAXY NOTE 4
A STYLUS ? NOBODY WANTS A STYLUS
The iphone 6 is just the same thing we iphone users have been using for years just bigger, they couldve been more innovative but i feel like they were just trying to play catch up.
i care about the video recording. 240fps BAYBAY
Shitty review.
Double tap the space bar idiot. Makes period. 😐 if you’re going to review tech, at least know how to use it.
Very low mic quality for being the nyt :/
