iPhone 6 Plus review



It is after all, the whole point of the handset - offering Apple fans a supersized screen on their most mobile of devices.

At 5.5 inches the display on the iPhone 6 Plus is certainly sizable, but it's not uncommon in a market where 6-inch monsters like the Nokia Lumia 1520 andHuawei Ascend Mate 7 exist.

It's got plenty of company around the 5.5-inch remit too, but for Apple fans who have been desperate for a phablet-sized iOS handset, your time has finally come.
The 6 Plus is the first iPhone to boast a full HD, 1920 x 1080 display. The iPhone 6 only musters a still somewhat average 750 x 1334 resolution with a pixel density of 326PPI.
By contrast the iPhone 6 Plus boasts a 401PPi display, so there's only one winner when it comes to clarity. Compare it to the 5.7-inch, QHD Super AMOLED Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (515ppi) though and the iPhone cannot match its Korean rival.

The LED-backlit display has impressive viewing angles thanks to Apple's use of "dual-domain pixels", which makes for an excellent visual appearance - especially if there are a few of you crowded round the screen.
The IPS panel helps make colours bright and clear, and with a 1300:1 contrast ratio to boot, the new screen elements combine to make a noticeable improvement over the screen found inside the iPhone 5S.
The iPhone 6 has also been run through the expert DisplayMate battery of tests, which found in it shoot-out that "the iPhone 6 Plus [has] the best performing smartphone LCD display that we have ever tested".
This is quantified by stating that the records it breaks are in the day to day elements that need to work for consumers to enjoy a smartphone, especially in terms of removing reflection and being able to show off content on the screen in both bright and optimum conditions, as well as tilting the phone around.
Apple also claims the screen has a fingerprint-resistant oleophobic coating, and while I found the iPhone 6 Plus was much better than most at avoiding really obvious prints, it certainly wasn't immune from my oily digits.

The colours don't pop as much as they do on the Super AMOLED display of theSamsung Galaxy S5, and clarity isn't as razor sharp as the QHD LG G3 - but the iPhone 6 Plus still has a very, very good display, and the more day-to-day elements, shown in the DisplayMate shoot-out, work very well as showing Apple has worked out what stops you being able to use your phone for general tasks.
If you're upgrading from an iPhone 4S, 5 or 5S your eyes are in for a serious treat.

Reachability

As you may have already guessed, the 5.5-inch iPhone 6 Plus isn't exactly a small handset, but Apple is determined that, when it comes to convincing users about usability, its iPhones are still perfectly usable in one hand.
For the vast majority of the iOS interface and iOS apps, navigation is located at the top of the screen - there are no back keys at the base as with Android and Windows Phone.
This wasn't a problem on the 3.5-inch and 4-inch iPhones as their compact size meant you could easily reach all four corners of the screen with minimum fuss.

Things are different on the iPhone 6 Plus. Some serious hand shuffling is required to move up to the top of the screen - especially when exiting an app by clicking the home button below the screen and then reaching for an app icon on the top row.
To combat the this Apple has cooked up "Reachability" in iOS 8, which aims to reduce the amount you need to stretch your thumb to the very top of the screen.
It's very simple to use, as you'd expect such implementation would be from Apple, although I found the execution rather less pleasing.

A double tap (not press) on the home key will see the screen jump down, bringing the top part of the display to the middle.
This works on any screen, from messaging and Safari to the notification bar and third party applications - what's not to love? Well, it just doesn't look very good, like the screen has got a bug. Which for Apple, is surprising.
Unless you're enabling 'reachability' (and FYI, I already hate that term) from the home screen where your wallpaper remains in the same place, you just get a big black block in the empty space.
