I like the somewhat smaller size of the 6; and, besides, rushing to get something on launch day, my 6 plus is only a 16GB, while my 6 is a 64GB. And, not that I really need it to be since I'm intending on staying with ATT, but my 6 is also an unlocked phone. My 6 plus is on the Next plan with ATT, meaning their kind of installment plan, as that is all I could get on launch day, unless I wanted to sign a two year contract. Now, as I understand it, I actually own this 6 plus; and, while my relative can't get it unlocked until it is paid off, I have the option of paying off now, or letting my family member have the phone while I just keep making the payments. Back to my reasons for getting the 6, I wanted the larger capacity, just in case I ever needed it, and I wanted to compare the 6 and 6 plus. Thus, for me, the battery life on the 6 wasn't all that much less to make me still want the plus. Also, when using the KNFB Reader, I, personally, got just as good results with the 6 as with the plus. Then, too, when using MBRAILLE, my hands just seemed to fit better, making me type more accurately, on the 6. -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

Re: iPhone 6 or 6 plus
As others have said, it is. I'm sorry, but I was wrong about that. It was just an unfortunate short hand I used when I meant it was an add-on to the camera itself. As Jonathan pointed out, KNFB Reader does now take advantage of the optical stabilization in the iPhone 6+, so I was wrong about that as well. I appreciate the corrections, and I apologize for the inconvenience I caused with my poor choice of words and dated information.

Re: iPhone 6 or 6 plus
I, on the other hand, prefer the 6+. I use GPS quite a lot, and the 6+ battery really comes in handy, both for that, and for office use. KNFB Reader is significantly better with more complicated documents on the 6+ compared with my 5S. THE best feature for me, however, is the wider screen for braille screen input. That said, I just acquired an iPad, and braille screen is very much nicer on the iPad. I can now use 8 dot computer braille. And, I am brailling faster on the iPad, with less errors.

Re: iPhone 6 or 6 plus
I have a 6 and notice that the audio is much improved over previous vodels. The base response is much improved and it doesn't have that tinny sound that the previous iPhones had.

Re: iPhone 6 or 6 plus
From the reviews I've read, the 6 and the 6+ have the same camera, but the 6+ offers some additional software features, such as optical stabilization. I thought there was some discussion on this list as to whether the KNFB Reader would be able to take advantage of the optical stabilization or not, but I don't recall the results of that speculation, and I couldn't find it with a quick search of the archives.

Re: iPhone 6 or 6 plus
Optical Stabilisation is a hardware difference in the camera. Digital Stabilisation is in the software. The latest upgrade to KNFB Reader now takes advantage of Optical Stabilisation.

Re: iPhone 6 or 6 plus
Yes, KNFB Reader confirmed on Twitter that they are taking advantage of optical character stabilisation, so the 6 Plus will have advantages, particularly if you're inclined to shake the phone when you take pictures. For my purposes, the 6 Plus is the best phone I've ever owned. Braille screen input on it is fantastic, and the battery performance is far better than the six when doing really intensive things like GPS or streaming for a long time. It's quite remarkable.

Re: iPhone 6 or 6 plus
I've been able to hear well enough on all the iPhones I've had over the years, meaning the 4 and the 4S, as well as the 6 and 6 plus. The plus may have just a little more of a base sound, but I'm able to hear and understand on both the 6 and 6 plus without any problem.

Re: iPhone 6 or 6 plus
I've got a 6 and also have a hearing loss in both ears. I regularly use my 6 around my apartment with no issues. I am satisfied with the 6 and did not want the larger 6 Plus, mainly because I thought it would be too much to handle. When I was able to touch a real 6 Plus, I discovered that I was right to get the 6, for my own use and so forth. To each their own though. What's best for you may be different than someone else. If at all possible, I would encourage you to go to your nearest mobile carrier or AppleStore and take a look at one. Until then, it's all speculation.

RE: iPhone 6 or 6 plus
Hi. I have heard both the six and the 6+. I don't know if the speaker in the 6+ is any larger, but the housing is. I do hear a difference between the two, and the six does sound like it has a larger speaker even if it may not. But in terms of clarity, they both seem about the same. I haven't played with the 6+ all that often, so perhaps someone else on the list who may have both phones can chime in here.

If you can't see the screen, why would you want to use a phone that has a huge one (I'm looking at you, 6 Plus)? You have to figure out where to put this massive device, get used to your apps being even bigger, figure out new layouts. Why bother?

Re: Iphone 6 vs. 6 plus?
With the battery life it’s a no brainer! I have the plus, and I know people who have the 6. And the 6Plus’s battery life is almost 60 percent better. As for the camera, that depends on who you ask, some say the plus camera is better, some say it is not. The battery life was the deal breaker for me, plus the extra space on the screen. I use to use a bt keyboard, now I hardly use it because it is so much easier to type on the 6Plus screen. Frustrated with your Mac, I-device, or AppleTV? New user and want quick efficient answers?

availability of iPhone 6 and 6 plus
When checking the Apple Store app, it sure looks as if the iPhone 6 and 6 plus are becoming more readily available. For, when checking here in the United States with the app, it gives only one business day shipping time for the 64GB plus, and one to 3 business days for the same size 6 models I checked.

I see there are concerns about 128 Gig version of the Plus. The IOS-Today podcast suggests, as a generalisation. That women are more comfortable with the 6 and the Plus is a little big. But I wondered if this was because of the way in which sighted people interact with their phones? Someone with smaller fingers will struggle to reach from top to bottom while keeping their palm gripping the side of the phone? I like the idea of the Plus as the image stabilisation might help barcode and OCR scanning. Do 6 Plus users see an improvement in scanning barcodes and OCR activities? But what have female iPhone 6 Plus users felt about using a larger phone? I look forward to learning of personal experiences of women with iPhone 6 6 Plus models with gratitude. Thanks.

Re: iPhone 6 or 6 plus?
I have the 6 plus 16GB, and I have no problem holding the phone in one hand and using the touch screen with the other. Also, from what I've heard, the battery life is better on the 6 plus. That being said, and having never seen the 6, I'm still toying with the idea of taking a look at the 6 at some point. For, the 6 plus does seem to be a bit wide for me on some occasions. As stated before, I'm able to hold the phone in one hand and use the on screen keyboard without a problem, pretty much the same as with my 4S. However, what I'm not able to do, is use some of the Braille keyboards, such as mBraille, as I did with the 4S. Wanting privacy when at work and on the bus, I would hold the phone with the speaker against my right ear, and then the home button of course on the right and facing towards my body, and I was then able to place my fingers such that I could type my text messages and the like. But, this just doesn't work for me at all with the 6 plus, as I just can't seem to get the placement right, especially for letters requiring more than one or two dots. Hope this makes sense. - Original Message - From: Cheryl Homiak cah4...@icloud.com To: viphone@googlegroups.com viphone@googlegroups.com Date sent: Mon, 10 Nov 2014 17:19:46 -0600 Subject: Re: iPhone 6 or 6 plus?

Re: iPhone 6 or 6 plus?
Interesting. I didn't have to look at a phone which was nailed down in any way. Perhaps they are, normally, but I'd think they can be released, somehow. Maybe they'd do that for you so you can have a proper play.

iPhone 6 or 6 plus?
Hello All, I’ve just rejoined this list as I am looking at a new iPhone. I’ve tried looking through the archives trying to establish what subscribers felt about the 2 new phones? I see there are concerns about 128 Gig version of the Plus. The IOS-Today podcast suggests, as a generalisation. That women are more comfortable with the 6 and the Plus is a little big. But I wondered if this was because of the way in which sighted people interact with their phones? Someone with smaller fingers will struggle to reach from top to bottom while keeping their palm gripping the side of the phone? I like the idea of the Plus as the image stabilisation might help barcode and OCR scanning. Do 6 Plus users see an improvement in scanning barcodes and OCR activities? But what have female iPhone 6 Plus users felt about using a larger phone? I look forward to learning of personal experiences of women with iPhone 6 6 Plus models with gratitude. Thanks.

Re: iPhone 6 or 6 plus?
The 128 GB 6 Pluses have had issues if the user has a ginormous number of apps on them, like 700 or more. People that have 128 gig models of this phone on this list have reported no issues. I am quite happy with my iPhone 6. I have large hands, but the 6 doesn't seem overly big to me, where the 6 Plus does seem a little much.

Re: iPhone 6 or 6 plus?
I've looked at and played a little with both and, for me, the most important thing is what is comfortable, of course! I would definitely not go for the 6plus as this is too large for me. It's a little large for my hands to hold comfortably but, more important, it's the larger screen which my brain finds more difficult in the interaction as a totally blind person. I owned an IPad for some time and went back to it time and again, trying to get more comfortable, but in the end I sold it because I just found it too large for my needs, and I think this was the visual concept rather than it being too large for sitting around and writing. Hope that might help a bit. Sorry it's rather late and not too well written.

Re: iPhone 6 or 6 plus?
Hello Carol, No need for apologies, that’s great. Lots of people seem to be expressing the same. I think I’ll have to find a shop where I could feel at least a model of one each of the phones. You are quite right. It’s about what is comfortable for me. Thanks.

I found Carphone Warehouse (just 5 mins up the road) had both in and I was able to look without going to the Apple store.

Re: iPhone 6 or 6 plus?
Hi! Of course there is that new command to help! Just touching the home key twice quickly [not pressing or clicking] brings down the icons 50% down the screen [there is a sound as they move] so bringing the top icons in reach! And its on a time limit about 10 seconds if you do not select anything the icons slide back to their place! I think pressing the home key sends them back if you did not mean to bring them down!

Re: iPhone 6 or 6 plus?
I think that was for one handed users like driverson the move, however illegal that is. When the device is in one hand and you're using hte other for navigating around the screen, size is hardly an issue since you can reach all of it. I gave up original iPad as they are too big to hold in one hand. Now I do it different on a Mini, hold it portrait between both hands so thumb can reach between top and bottom long edges. So it's variations like this we'd do with a 6+, and why I would happily have swapped out the Mini for a 6+, but way outside my price range. If you can afford a tablet and a phone, then the 6+ struck me as ideal for a tablet, not so sure about it as a phone. I half hoped a new iPod Touch would have come out in this new phone form factor; and cheap enough to afford. I bought a 2nd hand 5S now, so happy with that, when I finish moving into it.

Of course there is that new command to help!

And its on a time limit about 10 seconds if you do not select anything the icons slide back to their place! I think pressing the home key sends them back if you did not mean to bring them down!

Hello All, I’ve just rejoined this list as I am looking at a new iPhone. I’ve tried looking through the archives trying to establish what subscribers felt about the 2 new phones? I see there are concerns about 128 Gig version of the Plus. The IOS-Today podcast suggests, as a generalisation. That women are more comfortable with the 6 and the Plus is a little big. But I wondered if this was because of the way in which sighted people interact with their phones? Someone with smaller fingers will struggle to reach from top to bottom while keeping their palm gripping the side of the phone? I like the idea of the Plus as the image stabilisation might help barcode and OCR scanning. Do 6 Plus users see an improvement in scanning barcodes and OCR activities? But what have female iPhone 6 Plus users felt about using a larger phone? I look forward to learning of personal experiences of women with iPhone 6 6 Plus models with gratitude. Thanks.

I need a recording of the iPhone 6 and 6 plus
Hi all, as someone who is very much into sound and recording, I would appreciate knowing about the quality of the internal microphone on both of the new iPhones. If someone would be kind enough to make a short recording on the recording app of their choice, and send me a dropbox link, I would very much appreciate it. I have clients who are interested in this information as well. Thanks to anyone who takes the time to do this. Neal -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

Re: iPhone 6 and 6 Plus camera gets top rating
The iPhone 6 and 6+ are great devices, and I'm sure they blow the Samsung S5 away in some benchmarks, but I'm a bit surprised they blow the S5 away in all benchmarks. There are quite a few benchmarks out there to test all sorts of things. One of the problems with benchmarks too is that they tend to focus on a very specific aspect of the phone and don't always indicate how a device performs in every day use. Looking at the specs, I'd assume the iPhone 6 would more than hold it's own in benchmarks that aren't memory intensive or spawn off a lot of threads. Furthermore, I think this is more indicative of how people use their phones and mobile devices. I'd guess the S5 would do better in benchmarks requiring more memory and that are more heavily threaded. Like I said, I'd be surprised if the iPhone 6 blew away the Samsung S5 in every benchmark. I'm sure Samsung has it's pet benchmarks that it uses when testing the S5 and does it's share of tuning to ensure it performs well in those benchmarks. As a software engineer who's worked with performance tests to ensure a platform gets good marks, my experience is that performance benchmarks are more about marketing than they are about real world customer satisfaction. I'm sure I'll be labeled as an Android supporter or a Apple basher, but my only real point here is to put benchmarks into perspective and caution people against statements that say one platform blows another away in all benchmarks. When you see terms like all, every, never and so on, chances are you're not getting the whole story. I hope Sieghard, one of the people I respect most on this list, doesn't take offense to anything I said above!

Questions about Tactile Screen Protectors for iPhone 6 and 6 plus.
Hello all: As we have had a great deal of questions posed to us, as well as a thread started here, we wanted to pop in and update on the status of tactile screen protectors for the iPhone 6 and 6 plus. The assumption that we're not taking the lead on developing them to meet the need is an inaccurate one; but, this is also likely a lack of understanding how our products are produced. We begin that process when the betas of the various operating systems are released. We are always looking ahead to understand and prepare for how the changes that apple makes to iOS and overall screen layouts are going to impact our business and our products. If there is not a change in the size of the phone screen, then obviously we can easily make those changes using existing materials, templates, and doing minor adjustments as they pertain to overall screen measurements. As all of you likely know by now, Apple released two, (2) different phones this time around. They are completely different from the prior models, specifically the 5/5S/5c. This means, that, we needed to purchase both phones. No; contrary to what some sadly think, we do not have an in with Apple. and, we do not feel that it would make us look like a professional and/or well conducted business, if we were to go to them and demand that we be given special treatment, and have our devices delivery expedited to us because we are producing products for the blind community who needs them. This was suggested to us; and I only wish I were kidding. so, we did what we do every year: stayed up until the wee hours of the morning to pre-order. This has never failed us. Unfortunately, as lots of you probably also heard, apple did not anticipate the popularity of its products and have sufficient stock on hand. This, resulted in some models being backordered. Ours were in that group. This, despite getting our order placed within ten minutes after the online appstore was open and accepting orders. We cannot begin production without two things: our iPhones, and the arival of our screen protector materials from China. BTW: if any of you has an in with either apple, or one of the major US shipping carriers to speed this process along, we are all ears. Talk to us privately off list. Heck, if you're for real, you might even get something free out of the deal. Once, we do receive these things, which we are expecting by the end of the week, we can, and will, send all measurements, screen shots, and materials off to our guy and begin production. So, to answer the question of wil there be screen protectors? Yes, absolutely! When will they be available? We are going to work as quickly as we can to get them done and up on the site once everything has been sent off and we have our devices and materials. and no, that's seriously not just business lip service. Again, we cannot do anything without the devices and materials in hand. We will, of course, post announcements to this list, as well as all of the usual suspects e.g. buy/sell/trade lists, twitter, Facebook, and in an email that will be sent out to everyone who has subscribed to our new product announcement list. Along those lines: if you have not done so, or are not sure if you have, please feel free to add your email to the list. You may do this by going to our homepage, and filling out the form there. You can't miss it. If you've previously subscribed, no worries. We weed out duplicates, so you won't get multiple emails; and as others who are on this list can likely tell you, we don't spam. We really, only email you when we have something to say. We too, loathe spam and pointless emails in our personal inboxes. Finally, a quick note about some mentions here, and inquiries that we have had regarding producing a screen protector to be used specifically with MBraille, or now the native braille support in the iOS. We have been accused of not listening, and not being interested. Seriously? We are listening, and we do hear you; loud and clear. Unfortunately, we've had three requests for this; so the masses are not all voicing their interest to us or to our resellers at conventions either, I might add. That all gets back to us, and we always are looking at different layout options. Some of you might have seen or used the phone keypad layout that we have. That product came from us getting over 50 requests for this; and because there was then no question that it would sell, we ran with it and made it happen. We are a business, and like any business, when we look at bringing something new into the market, we have to be sure that initial sales will at least enable us to recover any costs asociated with making the first batch of product. That's pretty much true for any business; ones I know anyway... We tell everyone who comes to us with a want for either a screen protector for their android phone or tablet, or another layout they'd like to see for their iOS device, to let us know. Our contact info is on our web site and checked by real

Re: Iphone 6 and 6 plus
Hi Regina, the 6+ is definitely no where near the size of an ipad mini. The size didn't add up at all. An iPad mini is 7.9 screen, and the 6+ is 5.5 screen. A 6+ can fit in the Man's Shirt pocket, while an ipad mini need a hand back or bigger to carry in it. If you put two 6+ side by side on the lanscape mode of an ipad mini, you might come to the closer size of an ipad mini.

Very numerous, but here are just a few: * Way better internals - more ram, faster processor, newest wifi, and so on * NFC for making payments (coming soon) * vastly improved camera * Touch ID, for making payments, entering passwords, unlocking your phone, and more with just a fingerprint * a much larger screen, making it easier to examine maps, webpages, and other content you would explore with a finger instead of flicking through * lighter and thinner, though taller and wider - you will get used to it, but a 6 or 6 Plus will be a shock at first * far better support for iOS8, and more iOS versions in the future - the 4S will likely not get anymore updates, but the 6 will get them for years to come * Overall, you'll find the 6 or 6 Plus a huge improvement in terms of speed, performance, and so on.

Re: Iphone 6 and 6 plus vs. 4s?
It will be interesting to see if Apple ends up coming out with a list of where Apple Pay will work in a given area? I suppose the unknowns are of whether it will work most places where Google Wallet on Android does now, and if the reverse will likely be true? I could see that being confusing if people see the NFC thing at places, or whatever indication there is that a place has it, and find out it only works with the one they don't have. I guess we'll have to see how the payment stuff shakes out. - Original Message - From: Alex Hall To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2014 9:24 AM Subject: Re: Iphone 6 and 6 plus vs. 4s?

I just took a look at the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus and here's my observations
Hello List, I just looked at both the 6 and 6 plus. From the short time I was able to examine it, here's what I noticed. This phone was on Wi-Fi, not cell service. So I didn't test the phone app. 1. VoiceOver worked extremely smoothly. 2. I didn't have any problems with the home button toggling VO on and off. 3. In notes and Safari, I didn't have any problems navigating using VO. 4. I connected my Apple Bluetooth keyboard and it worked well for the minute or so that I had it connected. 5. BTW, I love the 1 hand concept. It's really nifty and quite easy to use. Now, after saying that, here's my personal conclusion. I'll purchase a new 6 or 6 plus in the next month or so, without a doubt. While I suspect a few OS bumps along the way, it should be much better than my 4s. -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

Re: I just took a look at the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus and here's my observations
Hello, You bet. But for some reason, I spent a little more time with the Plus. I think it's just because that's the one I really felt most comfortable holding. I'd say about 5 minutes with the 6 and about 10 or so minuts with the Plus. I am really astounded with how well ballanced the phones were. But again, I still like the Plus. However, both phones really feel well built. Now, if they were only water resistant, that would be fantastic, wouldn't it?

Re: I just took a look at the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus and here's my observations
Hi, Most of your observation has to do with the ios8, not the hardware of the phone or such though. For me, 6+ can be hard to hold at the first second, but it can be quite comfortable afterwards. I guess, it is just personal choice and also, in some way, some people having some sort of resistant towards bigger phone, with the concept that we are blind, we can do with a smaller screen phone or such.

Re: I just took a look at the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus and here's my observations
Hello, One thing that really stands out is this. In both the 6 and 6 Plus, the phone doesn't have the rather sharp feel of the 4s or the 5s. It feels kind of warn, or like something that fits just right. Kind of like an old glove. And it doesn't really feel metallic, instead it feels kind of warm. I don't know how else to say it. No sharp edges on either phone. The buttons are on the sides and no buttons on the top. The power button is on the right side of the phone. On the back of the phone is the video microphone, camera lens and the flash and light sensors. The lens sticks out about an eighth of an inch or so. The microphone is a small opening and the sensors and flash are between the mike and lense. On the bottom edge from left to right earphone jack, Lightening port, microphone and speaker. That's all I can think of for now.

Re: I just took a look at the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus and here's my observations
Yes D, you got it right. It is pretty rounded corner too. I think that is what it is stand out from other phones. 5.5 can feel a bit clunky to hold, but the iphone6+ is ust right. It is big, give you that, but it is very nice to hold, to cradle it even. I heard that the new ipad should release on end of october/early november. Will be interesting to see the different in terms of size. Rumour said ipad comes to 10.7 screen and the mini become 8.9 screen or something.

I'm not sure if or when I'll get an iPhone 6, but I am interested in taking a look at it. I know this sounds shallow, but one of the reasons I held onto my Nokia phone as long as I did was because I disliked the feel of the iPhone 4 so much. I kept holding out hoping they'd come out with a phone that felt more like the iPhone 3. I just think the iPhone 4 and iPhone 5 just feel like a glass sandwich.

For me, 6+ can be hard to hold at the first second, but it can be quite comfortable afterwards. I guess, it is just personal choice and also, in some way, some people having some sort of resistant towards bigger phone, with the concept that we are blind, we can do with a smaller screen phone or such.

I think it's just because that's the one I really felt most comfortable holding. I'd say about 5 minutes with the 6 and about 10 or so minuts with the Plus. I am really astounded with how well ballanced the phones were. But again, I still like the Plus. However, both phones really feel well built. Now, if they were only water resistant, that would be fantastic, wouldn't it? On Sep 21, 2014, at 5:35 PM, Charles Rivard wee1s...@fidnet.com wrote: You state: I just looked at both the 6 and 6 plus.

From the short time I was able to examine it, here's what I noticed. This phone was on Wi-Fi, not cell service. So I didn't test the phone app. 1. VoiceOver worked extremely smoothly. 2. I didn't have any problems with the home button toggling VO on and off. 3. In notes and Safari, I didn't have any problems navigating using VO. 4. I connected my Apple Bluetooth keyboard and it worked well for the minute or so that I had it connected. 5. BTW, I love the 1 hand concept. It's really nifty and quite easy to use. Now, after saying that, here's my personal conclusion. I'll purchase a new 6 or 6 plus in the next month or so, without a doubt. While I suspect a few OS bumps along the way, it should be much better than my 4s. -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

Re: about the NFC in Iphone 6 and 6 plus
The NFC chip in the iPhones is only used with Apple Pay http://www.businessinsider.com/apple-bans-developers-from-using-iphone-6-nfc-2014-9 Even if Apple opens it up to be used with other apps and services, I wouldn't think you'd ever use it with a head set. The range for NFC is only a few inches.
