I went to BestBuy on Friday and was able to look at the 6 and 6 plus. I was interested to know if the 6 plus would fit in my shirt pocket which is where I think a cell phone should go. I was surprised to find that the 6 plus form factor was not as big as I was expecting. I thought it might be like an iPad mini or something. It does in fact fit in my shirt pocket although it will stick up a bit. It will be a while before I actually make the change from my 4S but I am now torn as I really want the extra battery life the 6 plus is supposed to have.

People have told me I'm stupid or idiotic for not using a case, but it's my money and my iPhone and what I do with it is frankly no one's business. I'm also not all that interested in whether other people use a case on their phone or not. My wife uses a case on her phone, and I don't think any less of her for it. I don't think she thinks I'm stupid or idiotic for not using a case, but I'm sure that'll change if I ever drop or damage my phone. Knock on wood, it hasn't happened in the dozen years I've had a cell phone. > >> On 09/19/2014 10:36 PM, Joanne Chua wrote: >> I think there is a fine line between not being careful and someone >> just want that extra protection.
