GOOD NEWS FOR THE LOVER OF iPhone !!!!
The iPhone 6 Plus is out. Revolutionary or not? Here's my take after a hot first grip of a day.
The iPhone 6 is released on the morning, September 19, and I could start testing the beast, namely an iPhone 6 Plus 64GB Silver. I would have preferred a sidereal gray but apparently it was already sold.
I will not offer you a complete test for two reasons: firstly, to seriously carry out a complete test, use a device every day for several days and in different situations and different contexts. On the other hand, it is not going to lie, this new iPhone model, apart from its size XXL novel, does not bring a lot of new features compared to a 5 / 5C / 5S, the latter especially in housing iOS8, which is available for two days and is compatible with any iPhone from the 4S.
So no need to rediscover the iPhone, and I'm going to focus on a few points that make the difference, and among them, mainly the photo. This is what that dictated my choice even though I've always advocated for larger screens, and I spent a great time with my Galaxy Note 3 or my Xperia Z2, I would have opted for a compromise with the new iPhone, and I would naturally chose the 6 "basic" and its 4.7-inch screen.
OIS
Why did I finally opted for the giant iPhone 6 More then? For the only thing that sets him apart from his little sister: the photo function improved with the optical stabilizer. Indeed, while the iPhone 6 is "only" with a photo sensor stabilization software, the iPhone 6 Plus loads more an optical stabilizer. Thereof, with a floating element, is associated with the gyro device, and allows in theory to sharper pictures including low light conditions. When you see the quality of the photos from the arrival of the iPhone 4, we can only welcome this new feature, already present in many compact digital cameras, but not common on smartphones. The sensor remains however always August 1 megapixels, a value that has not changed since 2011 and the iPhone 4S, but still symptomatic of Apple's philosophy on the matter: less is more , and the race for pixels a vain thing where Apple has left its competitors run out. While some may consider it archaic, Apple focuses on what is really "useful" in his eyes, and let others be persuaded that they have the biggest counting their megapixels.

And size, then?
As I said earlier, I think the iPhone 6 with 4.7-inch screen is a good compromise between agility, portability and ease of use and especially reading. With 6 Plus, we're in another dimension. Apple is firmly back in the world already highly competitive phablettes (contraction phone and tablet). I had the opportunity to say all the good that I thought the concept Samsung Galaxy Note in his first surprise presentation at IFA 2011, and I have not changed my mind since. But we must also be able to take the disadvantages of this format: less easy to handle on a daily basis, necessarily more fragile because of / weight ratio screen size unfavorable, almost impossible to use with one hand, in particular to respond quickly to Texting while walking (even if Samsung offers a nifty feature screen off), almost impossible to fit in a pocket of jeans a little tight. As for jogging I do with my iPhone 5 in fashion music player / radio, there are forgotten altogether.
However, the size of the iPhone 6 More remains within reasonable limits: narrower than its competitors (but slightly above), it is also slightly thinner and lighter than Galaxy Note 4 (172g against 176g).
