"We have this notion that if you're poor, you cannot do it. Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids."

As the audience reluctantly began to applaud during the silence, Biden tried to fix his remarks.

"Wealthy kids, black kids, Asian kids -- no, I really mean it." Biden said.

I was forever a dude who laughed at the thought of owning and using a giant phone like the Galaxy Note, so it's pretty funny and a bit confusing how I ended up ordering a 6+ for myself. I told myself I'd never get a big screen phone, that I didn't like big phones, that over 4.5" is ridiculously large for a smartphone, and that there isn't really a practical need for one. I still basically believe most of that, except for the fact that I bought 6+.

Knowing how amazing iPhone displays are, I just couldn't resist getting the 5.5" size. When it comes to electronics, I don't really ever get excited but the iPhone has always been a special case. If it was any other brand phone I'd have likely picked the smaller one in a heartbeat, but it being an iPhone made it different. Back around the Steve Jobs era, it seemed impossible that Apple would ever even come out with a phone bigger than 4" or so, so I'd never had to decide whether or not to get a giant screen phone anyway. When it actually happened, I surprisingly found it impossible to resist.

I have an iPad but never use it, usually just using my iPhone instead since it's close at hand. I'm hoping the 6+ is going to get rid of my need for that iPad and I can just sell it. Most of what I do on my phone is web browsing and apps and photo/video, so that's what got me to decide the larger screen might be a nice luxury to have. Also, that hardware image stabilization sounds awesome since all my pictures are always loving blurry. If I was on the phone the majority of the time I'd have gotten the regular 6 in a moment. However, being a big web user, the thought of how amazing web pages will look on that 5.5" screen I'll have with me 24/7 was just too alluring. The jump from my 4's screen to my current 5 was wonderful, and that was only slightly bigger. So I think I'm really gonna enjoy the 6+.

I've become a giant phone owner somehow, after never thinking it possible. Thanks Apple.

I'm just really hoping I don't come to regret it, though. I am not a large guy and I don't have large hands. I already know it's going to look ridiculous when I use it given my small frame, but I don't care about that all that much. I'm more worried it's just going to be just too large and unwieldy for use in my small hands, and to fit clothes pockets. If so, I'll probably end up returning it to the Apple store for a normal 6.
