When I first got the 6, I felt the same way immediately, and was going to return it the following weekend. But after that week was up, a strange thing happened ... I started looking at iphone 4's and 5's and thinking to myself
"gosh, that screen is kinda tiny"
I never did return my iphone 6. I noq love the big screen, that I hated so vehemently when I first got it.
Precisely. I do Android programming, which leads to a lot of exposure to different screen sizes. Spend a week on a Galaxy Note, which is initially shocking, and going back to something smaller has the same shock value that the Note did in the first instance.
I must admit I can't see how or why people bother with less than 5 inch devices now, but each to their own.
The other side effect of this is bigger phones make the idea of tablets seem ridiculous. Were I Apple I'd reintroduce the 4 inch iPhone and kill the iPad mini.
Same experience, but I use the reachabilily hack several times every day, and every time I picture Steve Jobs rotating in his grave. How is it that Apple just don't set their design guidelines to have controls at the bottom of the screen? A back button in the top left corner (without swipe option) should mean being booted from the App Store if you ask me...
