I'm finding my 6s pretty needs suiting but the hugeness still feels a bit off, might be the case I got the apple leather one and it's pretty much as slippery as a naked phone anybody got a deece soft-touch case? [no silicone poo poo] [must be kawaii]

also I was pretty surprised I could just walk up and get one sunday at 5pm, I just did an "appointment" and it took fewer than 10 minutes until I was out the door.

everyone wants the rose gold and no one gives a poo poo about the other colors so you can get them anywhere

i held a 6 and 6s in either hand the other day and it is literally just barely noticeable, if that, and possibly only because i knew the 6s is technically heavier

browsing is more pleasant with the larger size. one handed typing is not. two handed typing is better for me in portrait than it was on the 5. not sure if the size is a net positive or negative. mostly i don't care/notice the drawbacks. the positives are obvious.

it's kind of an ugly design to look at, at least compared to the 4's awesome design, but it's very nice to hold and use.

yeah, gf went from a 4 to a 6 and loves it because she always two-hands her phone anyway.

i find it really awkward, but the 5S is dirt cheap now so whatever.

mute / filtering functions, sync timeline position across devices, downloads tweets in the background so you don't have to wait to refresh when the app opens, good photo support

it is the best ios purchase i made. the official twitter client is trash.

(and i also bought the 20$ mac version. it is good also, and only 10$ now)

i mean i understand it if its ur job, and it adds like uh Enterprise Grade Functionality and Better Metrics and Maybe a Scripting Language INterface but if its a frontend for twitter and you have 11.5k tweets about sandwiches and 34 followers well...

tweet bot is pretty cheap and if you use twitter a lot its pretty worth it, especially since i have multiple accounts

yeah it might be useless at some stage soon but I feel like ive got my 2 or 3 dollars worth from it


just fyi, tweetbot is one of the only apps that show that the iphone 4 is technologically adequate and its just that most apps are poorly coded piles of poo poo

i cant imagine how loving smoothly and well tweetbot runs on newer phones

If you have low-impedance/high-efficiency headphones, the 6s makes them buzz when the CPU does stuff, kind of like the audio outputs on a taiwanese motherboard from 2001

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NW-G7IxtXBY

This issue is pretty noticeable with my 6s+ with cheap monoprice headphones, but since you can't hear it with the apple earpods I guess they figured it's close enough.

EDIT:

Same dude made a better video where you can hear it properly:

I haven't noticed that in my S4i's. I can't wear Earpods for more than a few minutes. I don't understand why Apple thinks I want to shove hard plastic in my ears.
