Apple has steered clear of tablet-sized phones for a while now, leaving it to Samsung and other manufacturers, but now Apple is here with a phablet of its own. Is the iPhone 6 Plus the best big phone of the lot?

A phablet from Apple for those who want big phones; Exudes that Apple well-built quality; Great screen that is actually better than Apple's own "Retina" screens; High-speed 802.11ac WiFi is appreciated; Works with Apple's "Continuity" features and hands messages to computers with Mac OS X Yosemite,...

Next to impossible to use with one hand; Slippery; NFC can't be used by conventional NFC gadgets like headphones or speakers; Battery could be better; Fixed storage with no way of upgrading; Front-facing camera could have a little more oomph; No 4K video support

If you've been waiting for an Apple phone the size of a Samsung phone, this is it; and even if you've never seen the point, the bigger screen has an undeniable attraction in the flesh. Just be sure to try before you buy, because compared to any other iPhone it's a very different machine to own.

You wait a year for a new iPhone and then two come along at once. A surprise to many, Apple released not only the iPhone 6 but also the iPhone 6 Plus, a monster of a phone that comes with a 5.5-inch display, higher screen resolution, a larger battery, and optical image stabilisation.

In 2007, Apple introduced the iPhone as a one-size-fits-all device. "You can't get your hand around it", "no one's going to buy that." said Steve Jobs, when asked about big screen phones like the 5″ Galaxy Note. This was 2010, after a controversial launch of the 3.5″ iPhone 4.

So, as much as I like the iPhone I can't believe how it deformed over the time of only 3 weeks. I had it in my back pocket (yes you know where this is going) while driving and since it's cold here in Winnipeg I always have the heated seats on at second lowest setting.

Apple has finally given in to the philosophy that the smartphone market had chosen, ever since the first Samsung Galaxy Note. But, Apple wouldn't be Apple if it didn't do things differently.

I finally moved to the world of "Smart Phones ". After holding off for years and although admiring the likes of the Galaxy 4s and Note I never really felt like I needed all that power. That was until I saw the iPhone 6 plus. The display is incredible.

Apple's first phablet is no flop, but it certainly takes some getting used to.

The iPhone 6 and 6 Plus improve on their predecessors in nearly every major respect, from CPU and graphics performance to display and camera quality, networking speeds, battery life, and more.
