The iPhone 6 isn't too big and I have one personally. Runs very stable with fewer crashes compared to my 7 other Android devices I've had in the past. iPhone 6 Plus was WAY TOO BIG and I don't know why anyone would buy one besides the wow factor. The iPhone 6 is plenty big and perfect size in my opinion and is a nice upgrade from the 4 or 5 series iPhone without being too big like the 6+
