Previewed at WWDC, launching in the fall.
iPhone 6 and 6 Plus Shown Off in Early Hands-On Videos
Apple's iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus won't be available to consumers until Friday, September 19, but some devices have been trickling out early ahead of the phone's launch. Korean site UNDERkg has managed to get both an iPhone 6 and an iPhone 6 Plus, sharing hands-on videos and photos.
The first video focuses on the 4.7-inch gold iPhone 6, walking through all of the features including the display, the Touch ID home button, the protruding lens, and the power button, which has been relocated to the right side of the device for easier one-handed access.
In the video, the iPhone 6 is also compared to earlier models of the iPhone, like the iPhone 5s and the iPhone 3G, as well as Samsung devices like the Galaxy S5 and Alpha. The device is shown running iOS 8, with several of the apps demonstrated in the video. Authenticity is of the iPhone 6 in the video is confirmed via a FaceTime call.
UNDERkg's second video shows off the larger 5.5-inch iPhone 6 Plus, again running through all of the newly introduced design features, including the wraparound screen, relocated power button, and redesigned pill-shaped volume buttons.
As with the iPhone 6, the 6 Plus is shown powered on, with the reviewer showing off a few apps on the phone as well as the larger available home screen space. The iPad-style landscape mode is also demonstrated, showing how the device uses its additional real estate.
Apple's iPhone 6 and 6 Plus will be available to consumers beginning on Friday, September 19. The devices will be available in stores on that date, and that is also the date that early pre-orders will begin arriving. Official iPhone 6 and 6 Plus reviews should be available tonight.

They will never do those thick lines.
5.5 doesn't exist, there hasn't been any leaks!
Apple would never make a phone that big.
They will never use the term plus, that's so tacky!
WTF, protruding camera? That's not Apple.
Did I forget some?

Funny how they use their right hand to double tap and move the screen down, thus defeating the purpose of the function.

The double tap one-handed mode "feature" is something that many here would have mocked had it been a Samsung feature on a Galaxy model.
In fact, it's so ridiculously gimmicky yet impractical that it's exactly the kind of thing Samsung would do.

I was hoping somehow the antenna bands would look good in the final version.
I guess not.

Why is it impractical? I've seen a couple reviews saying how great it is and will become second nature you won't even think about it.

You're an idiot. Your selection is either too small and lacking features or too huge to use comfortably and you'll look like a dork using it. :p
