More on the I6..

In regular use the battery time for me on the 6+ has been good.

On Saturday I played with it all day and when I plugged it in at 9PM my battery was 32%. I used it a lot that day.

On Sunday it returned to a normal usage day and when I went to bed at 10PM the battery was on 74%.

On my old 5S the battery would be around 30% at 6PM at night.

So NICE improvement there for me. I am also getting use to the size, and have had no problem with it in my pocket.

Well, I can't even get Hey Siri to work, so I am not losing a lot of sleep of this one.
