“I’ve surprised myself. Had you asked me before December which smartphone I would have found the most interesting and important of 2014 Apple’s massive 5.5-inch iPhone 6 Plus would not have been on the list,” Gordon Kelly reports for Forbes. “But my how times change.”
“The iPhone 6 Plus nails all the smartphone essentials,” Kelly reports. “Camera: Not the highest resolution smartphone camera of 2014 by a long shot, but easily the most consistent; the iPhone 6 Plus (largely unaffected by the ongoing iOS 8 bugs hampering older models) is consistently the fastest phone in real world use; The iPhone 6 Plus also has the best battery life of any smartphone I’ve used this year.”
“Most importantly what has swayed me to the iPhone 6 Plus is its potential,” Kelly reports. “iPhone 6 Plus apps distinguish themselves from the iPhone 6 in landscape mode and it allows developers to code apps specifically for phablets… [And with Apple Pay] Apple has pulled its familiar trick of coming from nowhere to shake up something rivals have been trying to get right for years. 2015 will be massive for Apple Pay.”
