I'm going to wait. Going to stick with what I've got until the ordering madness slows down.

4.7" but will wait a while.

Oh for sure I will wait until after the Christmas rush. I for sure don't care to be the first to have one.

Will be pre ordering the 6 on Friday. It should be in my hands next Friday or early the week after. When I pre ordered the 5 I had it on release day.

I'll look at them in person before deciding, but suspect the 4.7" is best for my small hands.

The iPhone 5s does not have the NFC chip so you would need an Apple Watch to use Apple Pay with the iPhone 5s. Otherwise, it's a no go.

I received my Iphone 6 yesterday.

Today I went to a local Cricket ( Att) outlet and ported my number from Verizon...I went with the Cricket "Smart" plan I get unlimited talk +2.5GB data unlimited text etc....start of next billing cycle it will be 3GB data for less than half the price of Verizons plan...

OK I didnt get an Iphone 6 I got this really prime piece for $349 :p

Google Nexus 5

It feels really good in hand...

In 24 hours of use... it seems intuitive...perhaps because I have had droid phones from the beginning of smart phonedom, but these just work..

Its all good go with what you feel most comfortable with..

Dunno how accurate this new report is, but supposedly millions of google accounts hacked.

Millions of Gmail accounts hacked, was yours one of them? -- Fusion.

I would not click on any of links to see if your email account was hacked, except for the google link itself. But that's just me...

Anyway, Apple seems to have a lot more banks and card companies signed up.

Unless they steal your thumb as well, nothing. Can do a remote wipe and they can't get in.

Unless they steal your fingerprint, nothing. You then go to iCloud and block Pay from the phone.

Oops, NS beat me to it.

Back on topic, I think I'm getting the smaller one. Decided you can't really fit the Plus into skinny jeans :-)

Coming from my 4S it will feel big.

Yeah, which one will fit in my skinny jeans and match my white sunglasses? :)

I'm ordering the Plus for wifey tonight at midnight. I'll get the 4.7", but am going to procrastinate, because I feel my 5S is large enough.

Wish they'd post the unlocked prices for crying out loud. I refuse to buy a "major carrier" service plan. That's where the rip-off is. If it's like the others I've had it should be around $300 more. Guess I'll have to call the apple store or pop by and ask them. Just bothers me to see apple getting suckered into the big telco marketing game. They all suck (AT&T, Verizon, Sprint). I'm not giving up my $45-a-month, no contract, no hidden fees, unlimited voice / text / data Straight Talk thanks. Why anyone would pay 2x-3x a month more is beyond my understanding.
