I looked at them at Garden City. The round edge design does not appeal to me, reminds me of other smartphones. I prefer the more mechanical feel of the old flat edge which gives the impression of a solid reliable device with a superior finish. On/off switch on the side is more user friendly. Also, the old iPh 5 was thin enough for me and not too heavy. I am sure the new phones are better. My queries are just cosmetic. iPhone 6+ is too big for me. Just my opinion.
