    New iPhone 6 Plus, should you buy one ?

    Apple has revealed the new iPhone 6, mac fans have been ecclesiastic over it, and they weren't disappointed.

    it's superb,

    but 900 USD for one is a bit OTT

    The 5.5" 6 Plus is excellent - more expensive than a Galaxy Note 4 and lesser in every single way. Fine work iApple...

    still you have to admit, it's gorgeous

    almost tempted to buy one if I could install Android on it

    iOS 8 seems to be another bloated POS system from Apple though

    it does look pretty cool though, how can't you not love it

    it has Retina HD, that alone is a justification for it

    Now, I am actually considering breaking my ultimate taboo in getting one of these so I can inspect photographs on the hoof and a quality display is what is needed. I don't have much with apps and stuff like that - i like battery life not pissing about.

    So, what's the battery life like? My Samsung galaxy grand thing is 3 days with email pushed through it and nothing else. I always had the idea that iPish stuff is about 3 minutes.

    Maybe. I think the ship in which I actually cared sailed a long long time ago. Maybe this is why apple product don't matter to me.

    A crushing disappointment to diehard appletards, and Steve Jobs will be turning in his grave at his company doing their best to copy the Galaxy Note Series.

    And a smartwatch that looks like a children's toy.

    Bwahahahahahah

    I am more tempted by the new Apple watch..... an excellent way of taking high quality photos of your wrist. Does it do video as well?

    the watch is actually quite elegant, Apple is definitely turning into a fashion apparel retailer

    Seems to be a lot of coin for something that is of a lesser spec to my current phone.

    Doubt I'll downgrade.

    Spot on there.

    I thought the 5c was a low point, but these 2 phones are pathetic.

    The basic iPhone 6 is about 250 pounds more than the Galaxy Alpha, but all but identical in every respect; it's 100 pounds more than an xperia z3 compact, but lesser in every way - truly a low point for iPhones...

    OTT
    From a Belgian this may make sense if one were in deepest Bruges, Ghent or Antwerpen, but given we aren't and most are not riven with a faith based philosophy one must assume in his rather cute little way little Butterfly is really saying ecstatic or even enthusiastic but one can never be quite sure.

    Claude Van Damme has never been more attractive.

    Possibly as much as I might at the prospect of sucking your cock.

    Never understood the need for these. They tell you where you are? Hey, I got there didn't I? They tell you what your heart rate might be ? Fuck off, next thing I'll need a fucking app to tell me where my left bollock might be. They tell me the time? My fucking Rolex is actually quite good at that. They tell me when I get an email? Hey, what the fuck is my ipad, Imac, Macbook, IPhone for?

    Only a homosexual or girl would drool over this frippery.

    If the watch looked like some of the concept pics that were floating around it might have been interesting:





    The final release is just naff..



    The old ipod 6gen nano on it's rubber strap looks better

    Pretty poor show from Apple. That LG G3 launched 4 months ago and is still head and shoulders above the 6Plus and smaller in the hand too.
