[Hands on Review of iPhone 6 from Dailymail.co.uk] Apple’s new iPhone 6 plus is big - really big. When you see it lying on a table, it dwarfs even its smaller 4.7inch brother with its 5.5inch screen. The first time you pick it up, it’s slightly off-putting - but the rounded edges really do make a difference. It’s surprisingly light as well, and just about possible to hold comfortably in one hand. Once you’ve got over the initial shock, and learnt how to use the one handed mode (tap twice on the home button, and everything moves to the bottom of the screen so you can get to it easily), then one thing stands out - the screen. The quality is superb, with bright, sharp colours, that make even the current screen on the iPhone look lackluster. After a few minutes, you forget about the vast size, and just start wondering you lived with such a small screen for so long. However, the one feature that really makes the handset really stand out, and the one that will really change your daily life, is Apple Pay. We were able to try it out, and it really is as simple as Apple says - simply put your fingerprint on the sensor and tap it against a reader. With the number of retailers Apple has already signed up, this could be the real killer app of the iPhone 6, and more importantly for Apple, a key reason to upgrade. It’s a shame Apple couldn’t boost the battery life more, but given the increased screen size and features, its a trade-off most users will be happy to take.
