Many limitations, like I said, no apple pay (unless you add the watch) no 
access to the faster networks, smaller display which for someone with big hands 
like me the 6+ was a great improvement.  You really do have limitations once 
you’re out of date.  Now they may not be meaningful to you, that’s absolutely 
an individual thing but for me for example, I really wanted and am glad to have 
Apple Pay.  I use T-Mobile so like the extra bands  and definitely love the 
extra speed, I also use NFC for identifying servers at work.  So it just 
depends on the use case.
