Given that the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c remain on sale alongside the new phones, I'm curious what's the proportion of new users' and upgrading users' choice. I myself chose the 5s over the new phones when upgrading from 5.

128gb gold 5.5 is the most wanted in china now. They won't even take a 2nd look at the 4.7 or 5.5 other color.

I also like 5.5, 128gb, gold.. Haha. ;))
Hope the real thing, don't look like gold incense paper...

For the past, those who gave up iPhone due to smaller screen. Many will return to iPhone cause now has bigger screen to choose from...!! ;))) 👍👏😊

Based on my experience with Note, the only uncomfortable part when the phone is in my pocket is, when I bent down to tie my shoelaces. Also, holding the phone on landscape with one hand feels wobbly and you end up gripping it tighter which results in tired palm muscles.
Haha. How often you tie your shoes' laces...!!

I've been saving up for the iPad mini. The 6+ really comes at the perfect timing. Gonna get the 6+ black 64GB. :)

I don't buy the iPad mini, cause didn't have phone function.
Luckily this year, Apple come out with 5.5" that's good. 👍😊

I would prefer the 4.7 inch due to the ability to use with one hand easily, I think the 5.5 inch is way too huge for me to use it easily and its heavier too (43 grams more).
However the specs of the 5.5 inch is tempting... I would like to have the OIS, 1080p display, and a better battery life. But I don't need such a large screen as I have an iPad Air that serves me well when I'm doing work on.
Now I'm in a dilemma on which to get. Either get the 4.7 inch and miss out the great specs, or get the 5.5 inch and suffer because I cannot use it comfortably.
Any suggestions on which I should get? :(

After printing out the sizing template and pasting them on a cupboard to simulate the size, I'm totally sold by the 5.5". 4.7" just seems a little too handicapped after using my 5.2" G2 for so long. :o Plus... it doesn't feel that unnatural using the 5.5", but it could just be me, and not accounting for the weight yet.

Still, I'm sold, iPhone 6+!

Like that bo hua leh. I know iPhone resale value is high, but once the iPhone is used, the resale value will definitely drop more since it isn't 'Brand new in box'. Buying the iPhone from Singtel got subsidy, after selling the 6 Plus, need to buy another iPhone 6 from Apple store at $1148 :eek:

Hahahahaha.
I'm considering not pre-ordering then go to Singtel shop to try the phone out before deciding. But seeing how popular the iPhone 6 is, I'm afraid I will have to wait for many weeks before being able to buy it if I don't preorder :s13:
