A .7" increase in size throws everything out the window? Just don't get the iPhone 6 Plus.


It does and I won't get a new iphone before 7 or 6s comes out anyway because I don't need a new phone right now.

But I feel betrayed. They were the only phones out there that understood a phone isn't magically better just because it's got higher numbers. Now it seems they aren't anymore.

At this rate next time I buy a phone I'm gonna have to get one of those stupid watches and forego a phone completely.


It comes down to the greatest good for the greatest number of users. The fact is that most of us feel that the current iPhone is too small, especially with the galactically-stupid layout techniques used by both mobile and desktop web sites these days. Apple stuck to their guns as long as they could, but it was costing them market share.


I think you misunderstand the meaning of the word betrayed.


From the dictionary[1]: "to disappoint the hopes or expectations of". Seems spot on.
