The braille screen input modes are tabletop, which is straight across
like a Perkins, and if you tilt the phone towards or away from you,
you'll get the V shape in two different configurations. You'll need to
experiment to find which layout you prefer, then lock its orientation.

I actually tried the Supcase Unicorn Beetle Pro case for my iPhone 6S, and
absolutely hated it. That case so wasn't meant to have the phone in the clip
with the screen facing out. When I tried putting the phone in this way, the
case actually started to bend a bit on either side of where the clip makes
contact with the case. It also just felt like it couldn't take as much of a
beating as the OtterBox Defender.
I also tried the Spigen Perfect Armor case with belt clip (you have to buy the
clip separately from the case) and I wasn't a fan of that one, either. I faced
similar issues when trying to put the phone in the clip screen-out, and the
kickstand was utter crap. It just wouldn't support the phone at all. It kept
falling over, and this was without me touching it.
Since the problems with the early run of OtterBox Defenders for the iPhone 6S
were fixed by the time I bought mine (I checked with an OtterBox rep before
buying) I went with it and haven't looked back.
I didn't know you could choose the shape for table-top Braille Screen Input on
the 6S+. Or did I maybe misunderstand your comment?
Thanks,
Ari

I really enjoy my 6SPlus, since I can stretch my fingers out to braille
comfortably. You do have the choice of the straight line tabletop brailling or
the screen away mode that is the V shape. I prefer the V shape, since your
fingers and thumbs curve around the phone while brailling in that position.
Remember that once you get the brailling mode the way you want it, swipe up
with three fingers to lock that orientation for the future. There is a less
bulky case than the Otterbox Defender case if you want one. I found one called
the Unicorn Beetle, which is about $15 on Amazon. It does have the plastic
screen protector built into the top of the case. While you can clip the phone
in facing in or out, it's a tighted fit if you clip it in facing screen out,
and I found that after a few months the top of the belt clip case broke. It's
made out of the country, so I had to buy a whole new case instead of buying the
belt clip part by itself. Anyhow, If you decide on the plus version, you'll
also enjoy the battery life it provides.

You still have to Braille in that V-shape on the 6S with the built-in Apple
Braille Screen Input. I've heard that you can type in a straight line on the 6S
when using MBraille, but I'd double-check that this is indeed the case. The
V-shape is a lot easier on the 6S than on the 4S, since the screen is a bit
bigger. I've adjusted well to the bigger size, but I wouldn't want a 6S+. I
feel that this size is a bit unweildy for a phone, especially since I carry my
phone on my belt using my OtterBox Defender case.
Anyway, I hope this helps you.
Thanks,
Ari

Hey all,
I am going to upgrade my phone next week. I am deciding between a 6s and a 6s
plus. I use braille a lot on my 5s, both the Apple braille keyboard and
MBraille. My question is: which model is better for brailling? I would think
the bigger screen is better, because then I can use tabletop mode in a straight
line, but I was wondering if this is also possible on a 6s. TIA for your
feedback.
