I'm nowhere near being a iOS guy but i can agree with the review. Being unbiased also means giving credit where credit is due. Good job!
Mike Rose Thanks, Mike! ^M
if every tech lover were like you sir, the world would be a better place!
***** why do you need a - ?
Shaker Chabarekh Truth!
This review is fantastic. Personally, I have a nexus 5, but I've always understood why consumers love the iPhone. It's simple, reliable, and well built. Android and IOS both have their pros and cons, but it just frustrates me when people from both sides refuse to have an opened mind.
Emmanuel Hidalgo-Wohlleben Well said. ^M
Pocketnow thank you, once again great review.
the brand itself reflects the consumer who buy the product...if you're complicated type go for android....if you're simple then go for ios.... its weird when some review tells about the negative side of an android or apple products...just appreciate the differences and go for anything you like.... well said emmanuel... :)
I have a Nexus 5 too and honestly, I haven't noticed any difference compared to my iPhone 5s, they both work perfectly. Long story short, I prefer stock Android over iOS, but 100 times iOS than bloated android.
Shawn Rishwan thank you :)
Hey folks. We're keeping a close eye on iPhone threads, so while you're free to disagree with our conclusions or other viewers, keep your tone civil and your arguments focused on the issues. Be advised that we're swinging the ban hammer liberally (and with no warning) on any and all abusive commenters. ^M
While the comments usually get especially bad on iphone related videos, that is also a general trend for all youtube videos. It's really sad to see.
can you review the BlackBerry passport?
tyray wilson In general terms, that's true.
... but none if it applies here. ^M
punchedhalo 3 BlackBerry opted not to include us in the first wave of review devices this time around. ^M
D= oh... just you guys are really good at honest reviews and do a lot of them.
I'm sorry but I have issue with saying its forgivable that they are having so many issues with iOS8. Any other OEM would be getting slaughtered. Apple is always touting how stable their stuff is (just as buggy as everything else) but they get a pass cause it's Apple. Sorry but that is bullshit.
cpthornman Yeah. It's crazy how we never report on Apple problems. Those guys are always getting a pass.

Pocketnow Fair enough. But I still feel that in the review forgiving those problems is something I would not do. Any company for that matter. Especially for something that expensive.
Still though a fantastic review. I love the editing and format. Do miss the older intro where you put up the phone to the camera before the intro song. Apologies for the strong language earlier as well.
cpthornman Thanks for watching, and for sharing your views. ^M
***** For people that have updated. Adoption rate for iOS8 is really low as well. The perception that a new update is abad thing is there. And when new updates come out how stable will that be?
***** In short people always talk about the stability of Apple software when the evidence reveals it's just as prone to problems as everything else.
Am I the only one the actually LIKES the antenna lines?
No... I love it
I like them too.
***** yup. I did the same and yea.
***** Same here precisely
Yes! I love it!
Haha when you originally uploaded this with a different title there was a lot of dislikes. It's amazing what a change in title can do, shows most Apple haters barely even watch or read the reviews.
You can slide anywhere in the camera to switch modes it doesn't have to be right on the words! just swipe over left or right in the middle of the camera like you would on the home screen and it goes to the next mode
I was going to say the same exact thing!
I actually had no idea. Thank you
Was about to post the same thing till I saw your comment! The one thing Pocketnow didnt know? LOL
Why they didn't know this is beyond me...
vexx506 Pretty sure swiping on the viewfinder wasn't invented by Cyanogen...
Michael you are hands down the best tech reviewer in CZcams. This was a great review, completely unbiased. I cannot wait for the Note 4 review, hopefully done by you or Taylor.
Lol that Samsung looks so ugly next to the iPhone 6
lol so true
Bruno Powell
The Edge is ugly the regular S6 looks nice lol
LOL true that. I still go with the iphone look plus.google.com/104923498734515538555/posts/7Z1Gm18r5iQ
***** I already own one. lol
Honestly who cares? Edge is cheaper, better camera, 4k recording. It's even has a faster processor. Your gonna throw away $1200 For looks? Your dumb af.
***** just nailed it (yet again) with a Phenomenal review of the iPhone 6! The most informative, factual, and honest feeling review I've watched/read yet of Apples 2014 flagship. It was an absolute pleasure to have watched it! I've said it in the past and I'll say it again, ***** possesses some of the finest journalistic qualities that you could hope to find on CZcams! Plus one, thumbs up, and all those great things, lol!
Joseph Tongret Much appreciated, Joseph! ^M
Pocketnow agreed 100%, this is definitely the most accurate, and unbiased review out right now. Michael - we salute you.
Can't possibly agree more. I like how he manages to mix in some comedy as well. His reviews are always a blast to watch.
Absolutely. I think Michael does the best tech reviews on CZcams, full stop.
Exactly what I was thinking. I'm glad to see an HONEST review and not one that constantly sucks up to Apple for free review units (looking at your Verge!). Thank you Michael.
Felt the iPhone 6 the other day at Best Buy. Damn it really feels amazing and the screen is also very nice.
I like how the screen is curved at the edges.
***** yes
this was probably the best, most sincere review i've ever seen.
keep the great work up my man
So, hopeless battery life, a design that is both clumsy and apparently prone to bending, 2012's screen technology, new OS features that are clunky and disappointing, very high price, and updates that brick your phone... and Apple gets a pass - how? How are they so Teflon coated that all this important stuff somehow becomes "minutia" that you can "get past" and find that it's "the best"? I do not understand how stuff that would totally sink a phone from any other manufacturer can be put aside because of the Apple logo on the back? Nothing seems to stick to Apple.
Matthew Sharpe Couple things:
-10-16 hours with moderate to heavy use is not "hopeless."
-Reports of bend problems are mainly confined to the Plus, and overblown to boot: www.consumerreports.org/cro/news/2014/09/consumer-reports-tests-iphone-6-bendgate/index.htm
-Not all iOS 8 features are "clunky and disappointing."
-Define "totally sink a phone." OnePlus is a good example of a company that's constantly under fire from media outlets (ours included). Yet when we reviewed the device, we found it to be a good buy: pocketnow.com/2014/07/12/oneplus-one-review
When you replace general claims with supported specifics, we treat Apple the same as any other smartphone maker. If anything, we're more harsh on Apple than on other OEMS:

^M
Pocketnow fair points. I think I am still bitter about my 5c, which is now sitting in the glove box of my car because I can't be bothered trying to get it working again.
Well... To be honest, it's not about the issues in the phone, and in reality, the people having these problems (should) be a minority. I have (and carry) both an iPhone and an Android phone, and for some reason, I always end up with my iPhone in my hand. It's simple, but everything works, even animations like swiping between screens works better on the iPhone, and some animations within apps are implemented on the iPhone app and not in the Android app at all. The iPhone is just a great performer, it's consistent, it never tries to "but" you when you make it do something. I like Android's customizability, although, other than HTC's sense interface, I couldn't care less about other widgets, I do like custom ROMs and Recoveries. This is why most people buy Apple stuff, they perform smoother, for everything, there's just some sort of grace to the way iOS and Mac OS do things.
unidigistudios I use a Nexus 4 as my daily. The iPhone 5C won't get me through a day battery wise so I gave up on it. Also the Nexus 4 is generally faster and more stable.
Just because you dont like it or that it doesnt fill your needs, doesnt mean that it isnt an amazing phone!
I don't get why people HATE the antennas. The moment I saw it, i ACCEPTED it. C'mon guys, stop over critique-ing everything.
One of the best reviews so far, underrated in search results :P
Excellent review as always. Every single time there's a device coming out, I come to this channel to see if it'll be reviewed... and I'm always much more happy when Michael does it. As far as I can remember, you've always been unbiased and telling the truth, being positive or negative. Keep it up!
Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony Android, iOS, Windows, Blackberry. Then, everything changed when the Apple Nation attacked. Only the Nokia, master of all four platforms, could stop them, but when the world needed him most, he vanished.
Lmao.
Fantastic review Michael. Unbiased, explores both the positive and the negative, and comes to a solid conclusion. Nice job.
Thanks Michal! You are one of the best reviewers on CZcams! Stating the obvious facts and truth. These kinds of reviews are just lost in today's tech world! Where everybody is going for the spec sheet, you simply went for user experience! Looking forward to your other reviews! thanks! :)
I must say this review is almost the only HONEST one i see on the internet. You perfectly capture my thoughts on this device! so good!
Im upgrading from the 4s, Can someone tell me how big an upgrade it is?
lol, big enough, trust me
Same. My iPhone 6 hasn't arrived yet, but my dad has one. I've compared my 4s to his 6 (not even a 6 Plus, just a 6) and it's a huge seize difference. Plus his camera is so much better now, and the phone feels much better to hold. Whenever I use his 6, I feel as if my 4s is twice as heavy.
I was a Samsung user and I hated apple so much if any one of my family decided to buy an apple product I would call them dumb people but now I've switched to the iPhone 6plus I fell in love with iPhones
king dodo Why?
TDS Because they're very good devices
They're so smooth an lag free
It is becouse there is nothing what to run a part of just OS
The iPhone's build quality is the best
This is probably the best phone review I've ever seen. Concise, fair, informative, descriptive, even provocative.
Class act, sir.
I'm following Pocketnow for quite some time now. Your unboxings, first-looks and especially reviews have always been extremely good. But this, this is a true masterpiece.
I own an Iphone 6 and its my first apple phone. The only other apple product I had was the ipod 4 lol. But I gotta say the Iphone 6 isnt that bad and the battery life is alright for me, the battery lasts all day for me. I get at least an hour of usage before my iphone goes to 99% from 100. And I got this iphone around somewhere in July 2015.
greatest smartphone!
great review
Its always refreshing to see a review that doesn't bust its wad over the iPhones camera. People act like its the best thing since multi touch, and I've never really found it all that different than most other major flagships.
One of my all time favorite reviews. Extremely informational and well-balanced, no bias noticed whatsoever.
Coming from an Android user who is about to switch to Apple, I can say using an iPhone was a better experience for me. Personally I see Android as an OS for people who want to be flashy and always be unique. iOS is an OS for people who have gotten past that need to completely customize their phone and want a handset that delivers consistent performance. I see Android as a personal phone OS and iOS as a business-oriented OS (though many may disagree). If I was a traveling business man who needed two handsets, I'd have an Android (Most likely a Galaxy model) as my personal phone and an iPhone as my business phone. Apple has always been good at software optimization so to me it's more reliable in a business situation. But to say one OS is better than the other is complete nonsense. They both have their perks and their disadvantages. As always if the two would merge we could possibly see a near perfect OS. Something with Androids customizability and Apples fluidity and precision.
+DiAbOliCaL41 best comment on here!
I have been using both and I like on android how can customize it, but I use iPhone 6 because it just works and all is how its best. There is no need time to customize it, it just is how I need to be.
eetu53 i understand what you mean
Silly Michael you can swipe anywhere in the camera app to change modes :)
Scott Chambers D'oh! Thanks. Consider this our correction. ^M
It’s almost the end of 2019 and I just came up across this video. It feels crazy to me that iPhone 6 came up 5 years ago.
You guys seem more active in responding back to the general community versus other tech channels. I like that.
I love this phone, it's smooth & highly Reliable.
Cool, you guys are from Boston, I saw the Red Line and the Boston Skyline in the video :)
MrNikeFresh808 Absolutely! ^M
Really nice review and video editing Michael! I enjoy Pocketnow content more and more!
Congratulation Pocketnow ! this is the more honest review I have seen on the iphone 6. Greetings from Sicily ;)
Probably the best and accurate review of iPhone 6. Agree on every and each statement. I can't stand spec nerds with their usual claims on useless ram numbers.
I own a OnePlus One and I really enjoy iOS on my iPad, especially when jailbroken. It's also so easy to do now and there's no real risk. I am definitely considering a 6 Plus. Why can't we all just get along and appreciate that both Android and iOS are brilliant, and both Android phones and iPhones both contribute to making each other better each year :)
The internet is unfortunately incapable of that
My phone just broke and i'm looking for a cheap alternative. I found an iphone 6 64gb on ebay for $285. Is the 6 still a fast enough phone in 2017 with good enough camera, etc?
Great review as per usual Michael. Looking forward to bb passport one hopefully in the future. Cheers.
Wow. Glad it's unbiased.
TechBox That's always the goal. ^M
Pocketnow you are the man
Watching this on my iPhone 6 lol
Me too 😂
who cares.
+Turnt Alien salty ass
+xxtgracynxx same here :)
Guys I miss ios8 😫😫 iOS 9 is soo slow on my 6 :(
Great review Mike! BTW thanks for the shout out of the Bad Boys picture. I am @juliogol80 who tweeted it XD. Reaaaally interested on this phone this time. Keep it up!!
Quite possibly the best pocket now review I've ever seen. Beautiful presentation and to the point info. Truly a great review
i need to validate my purchase by watching these reviews back to back...but really in the end i just feel empty inside...
Same
Am I the only one who doesn't understand the criticism of those antenna bands? Every review I've seen trashes them. "Eugh! They're so UGLY! I want to vomit!" They look subtly Art Deco to me.
They are a bit of an eye sore, not so much on the silver and space gray versions but they look incredibly bad on the gold one.
The gold ones bad, but I have a silver and it's quite nice
review well done! best i have seen till now!!
Best voice on YT.
Love to watch yours reviews.
THANKS
I know it's been a while but I still think it's ridiculous that you think that the sliding mode adjuster is a "frustratingly small touch target". You know you can swipe on the display itself? Like where the photo is lol
Well it would seem that this phone is getting consistently great reviews, so unless Apple are paying every website then I think Android fans should shut up.
lol not every android fan is a hater relax
Yeah most of them are crazy. No matter what you say they will find a way to disagree lol
And they love their specs sheet haha
vuthina roeun I love android but I'm not a hater. Xray told you the same thing but you just ignored him and started raging about android fanboys. What does that say about you?
123x234 Well he did say most of them, meaning not all of them.
Pierre Minnaar That was the first sentence. The other two were blatant insults.
Great video Michael ! probably the best I've ever saw on pocketnow :)
Very well done and unbiased review. Thanks :D
Whose watching on iphone 6
me
Vedh Mungara iPhone 6s Plus to be exact
6s in 2020!
Your review is great as usual and your command of the English language is refreshing. I do however get the feel throughout the video that you are still under the reality distortion field of the new device and a little less critical than usual.
This title and the previous title that got cancelled faster than firefly were a little over the top to my taste for a phone that is better than the 5s but not by much. basically it's an iphone 5s with slightly better camera and a little bigger.
I carry an android device and an iPhone for my work and I couldn't find one good reason to refresh my 5S besides screen size. all the IOS8 goodies are on my old 5S just the same.
***** Actually, the previous version of the review was taken down to correct the erroneous assertion that you couldn't put folders in the dock. We decided to re-title it only after a discussion on this afternoon's podcast.
Re: improvements. In our view, the new A8 (with second-generation M8) and larger screen are more than enough to justify the added excitement vs 5S, despite style compromises which we mentioned.
Thanks for expressing your disagreement rationally, though! Always happy to have a dialog. ^M
Tfffffffrdgddfgtc gag fiXed fEw tea ax
if you don't want it don't buy it end f i'm probably gonna upgrade from my 5s fora 6s plus big jump i know but i want to at least try the bigger screen
Amazing review Mike! Keep it up. And thanks for the shoutout :D
You're reviews are just so good!
Nope, still sticking to my beautifully crafted beast, the One M8.
You forgot to mention the poor button layout lol
2014 was Apple's BEST year
AwesomeArmpit123 their iphones were bending like crazy because of how poorly designed they were , I wouldn’t call it their best year.
The master of nuances as always manages to deliver his thoughts in a clearest manner. Respect .. awesome review!
Ur reviews are always pleasant n shows elegance no matter the product bn reviewed. Every reviewer should b like this. Organize, well use of terms in the right way even in the sarcastic way. I think ur passion for ur job presents itself clearly through ur videos. Keep up the exceptional work.
"The iPhone is for people who want comfort, stability, reliability". You're making it sound like every other phone out there doesn't provide these when that isn't the case at all. To say that, and to give this video the title "Excellence Exemplified" sounds a little one sided and is contradictory to the very negative points you rightly remark upon in your own review
T- Smooth Those facts are the purest of bullshit if you have any actual experience with both iOS and Android devices. With normal usage you can get an S4 to crash daily (almost hourly if you browse the web a lot). I've never seen an iOS device crashing as much as an Android device. Only a fucked up jailbroken 3GS could come close to Android levels.
No rest for the wicked the issue I have with your statement is you're comparing to just one manufacturer of Android device. Samsung is notorious among Android users as not quite being the best example of Android, as they add all their own boat on top of the operating system. Since owning my HTC several months ago it hasn't crashed on me once.
Barry Ward I've seen M8's crash, you're not special. And the crashes I've witnessed were people all running stock ROMs.
No rest for the wicked well maybe it's because they were running stock ROM's. I've not done so with mine. Not sure what you're implying when you say I'm not special
Barry Ward That was a random brain fart, don't worry about it. Anyways I'm happy that you are content with your device.
I have this phone, I love it😍😍😍😍😍
It just a shity copy of the nexus 4 from 2012
*****
They look girly and silly and are expensive
*****
A €600 phone with them specs OBVIOUSLY is a scam
*****
It costs €200 to make an IPhone
And they're selling it for over €600 -_-
Haiii
Beautiful review, been waiting on an iPhone review that does the phone justice but keeps things real and this is it.
Love to see at least everybody else in Pocketnow is not a fanboy and can still make a normal review.
Thank you Mr. Fisher.
Someone in your own team has some real big thing's to learn when it comes to neutrality!
Keep doing the great work.
This phone is blander than a bowl of unsalted grits.
"Hard to hate iOS 8 even if you're coming from Android". I couldn't disagree more. That's exactly my situation. My personal phone is Android, while I am using (against my will) an iPhone 5S for work. I find the lack of freedom just plain insulting- how can iPhone users put up with it? A cheap USB stick can do something that a $700+ iPhone can't- you can drag and drop files onto it without a middleman. Going from Android to iOS is like being put in jail. But for someone who's always used iOS, the jail cell is all you've ever known, so how could you be dissatisfied if you've never known what freedom is in the first place?
smashbro5 The answer probably lies in most people not caring one whit whether their smartphone can serve as an impromptu USB drive. ^M
One can argue that you’re also trapped in a “jailed” platform mind set, therefore failing to see they upside apples closed platform. While I do agree iOS could use a little more openness, there are definitely tangible benefits for it. Having a nonpartisan mindset allows one to appreciate both iOS and Android. As for me, I greatly enjoy both platforms. I’m lucky enough to own a Moto X 2014 and an iPhone 6. To me, both are brilliant devices.
Paulo Cardenas "Having a nonpartisan mindset allows one to appreciate both iOS and Android."
This right here. This is wisdom, people. ^M
Paulo Cardenas Having preferences is not the same thing as being closed-minded. Does one have a "jailed' mindset if one doesn't like every food in the world? No, being closed-minded is a refusal to give things a chance before making a judgement on them; I tried both systems.
I am genuinely curious about the benefits you speak of. In my experience so far, I'm finding that iOS is either equal to or worse than Android. Also just to be clear, my criticisms lie with iOS, not the physical iPhone itself, which I think is good actually.
I was a android user but I switched to iPhone. Being honest i like it. I don't like the control freak thing but other than that it's great. It just depends your likes and dislikes
This is the best review Ive seen on here. Neutral and honest
Very nice review *****! I always enjoy your reviews most on Pocketnow and frankly more than anywhere else on CZcams. Very honest, but not too harsh. Keep up the good work!
iMessage is the only reason I might actually buy an iPhone. EVERYONE has an iPhone, having one too would make communicaring even easier
+Jose Lopez How would it make it easier? Elaborate.
+Seven Foot Pelican I live at an international border. I live in Mexico but I go to school in the united states. I have verizon, so I can't text when I'm in mexico. If I had an iPhone I could text using wifi. I know I could use WhatsApp or apps like that one, but not everyone has that, while nearly everyone I know can use iMessage
This is the sole reason I use a iOS device. I would love an android but iMessage is just so convenient. Especially in the office its so much more fluid.
iPhone 6 does one thing very well - causes price drop of 5S :D
Lol
HAHAHAHA.
Your reviews are the best!
I really like your review style!
But it looks exactly like the 5 just bigger. All the icons population the entire screen, non customizable, still no multi tasking, I mean they should of just named it the iPhone 5s plus, same old stuff.
Not everyone needs all of that. Exactly what he was getting at in the video. Some people just want a smartphone that works. And works very well.
Freitag T You know i have to agree.😉
iveused all platforms and ihave to agree, iOS was the one that gave me the less problems, i only use text calls internet adn music, and so do many other people, and thats what iphone excells more. I also got myself with an HTC one m7, and i never once used the NFC, the ir, and cpyspy showed that i never pushed the cpu more than 1.5 clock speed. So there are some people that dont want powerhouses, as long as it does the core apps and (like my sister says) have alot of "pretty cases" people will like it
No! Your right! If you just looking for a phone that is consistent on doing a few things and nothing else and non customizations to make it your own and looks like every other iPhone out there and you have to pay for music than its definitely the best phone out there.
2007suprasport pay for music? im not gonna go into piracy but they do have itunes radio, and my gf loves it and so did i. also,there is waay to many cases and accesories for the iphone, you can customize the outside, but you are right the inside is always the same
Android let stuff run while, keeping it stable is really hard, while apple has a strict rule for everything, keeping it stable and smooth is an easy task for them. the decision is up to you. You want strict rule but it is stable and smooth, or you want freedom for the price of stable and smoothness.
WILD*
iOS isn't even as stable as Android Gingerbread through Kit Kat. iOS actually crashes twice the amount of Android apps. In a sense, a good High end Android device, such as HTC One M8 Google Play Edition, runs more stable then iOS, significantly more multitasking capability, freedom, and phenomenally smooth.
I love this guy, awesome review
I have a iPhone 6 SpaceGray and I love it.
not the best design
Offcoz not the best design
100%
Not fair and balanced review!
700$ smart phone with 2012 specs.
Android phone has no limit and it's cheaper than iphone 6.
***** NO, Android device can beat your iphone.
***** OK I got it. Please, don't be an apple fan boy.
***** Oh really...I'm not a "fandroid" neither.
오재호 $700 that would be worth the amount you use on the phone, Samsung uses unwanted stuff on the phone, while the process seems slow for Apple, and iphone 6 could of been much better this year, i still think Iphone 5s beats every phone out there.
nfsmwnfsc You can think like that, But I don't agree.
Apple is being greedy. iphone consumer pay a lot.
iphone 6 real price 200$ , consumer price 649$
Galaxy s5 real price 250$ , consumer price 510$
Android phone can do more.
I've noticed that you've changed the way you speak/narrate. Sounds much more sincere, I like it.
I love the honesty of this dude !!
Android can't hold a candle against Apple , a buddy of mine showed me his Brand New Galaxy Tab , I think 8.4 , ALREADY LAGS !!!!!! Out of the BOX !!!!!
Had both Android people know these words ,
" Forceclose " and " " Program Not Responding "
I no longer see them .. And IOS App Store kills Googles !!!!😂📱⌚️
Why do people always say "my new iPhone's battery is great."
That's only because the battery is new!!! ... wait until its starts to slip and you can't replace it. The more you charge it the more you make it worse (charge cycles matter). Then Apple charge you for a new battery.
The iPhone frankly seems flimsy compared to the iPhone 4 and 5. Feels more like an iPod Touch to me now. And the whites on the screen are clearly off with a bluish tint. The colors seem shallow not at all vibrant with the punch of Super Amoled. This matters less on a big screen tablet or your living room TV but on small device like a phone muted just looks well.... muted.
And those static rows of icons that we've all been staring at since we were all seven years younger. Seriously... try something new. Stop ordering the same Starbucks coffee every day. Stop ordering the same dinner. Go out and do something different for once. "Think different".
Polymer batteries don't slip. I've got a 3G iPhone laying around somewhere and it still holds about 70-80% of the original capacity.
Mihail Sirbu I can confirm that - my 3G can work for 1,5-2 days today concerning my usage.
vexx506 Concerning a 1200mAh battery and used chipset, the power usage is equal or worse if you compare with actual models (would be strange if it wouldn't :).
***** the power demands of 4G LTE and a large 1080HD screen are nothing like what a small ipod touch has to provide. Even a small iphone4 on a 3G signal like Virginmobile will last days. But screens are a lot bigger, 4G is a lot faster and iOS8 needs a lot more storage capacity.
Mihail Sirbu unless you use a Mophie, all new iphones will have nothing to do with polymer, it's lithium only now. And those slip every time they are charged. The worst thing is that lithium batteries arw so cheap now that you can get 3x's what's in iphone 5S for $10. But apple won't let you change out the battery without cracking open the phone and voiding your warranty. With LG and Samsung simply pop off the back cover and you never have to lose use of the phone because its anchored to the wall.
This is definitely the best review i've seen yet of the iphone 6
Great review man, good sense of humour too :)
Always great reviews
Loved the review!
Nice review man. You explained everything well. :)
So excited. Getting one this week.
Pocketnow I know the buzz won't go away soon but waiting for it. Nice review.
Wonderful review!
For some reason CZcams recommending this video to me in 2019. I loved the iPhone 6 back when it launched. Though mine did have issues with the screen creaking after some time.
I used to have an iPhone 6 and it felt so good! It was razor thin, super round and it easily fit in my tiny hands
Pocket now always does the best reviews
Mr. Michael, i always wait for your fair and equal review.. thumbs up

What a great review. It's not an obvious over praising of the iPhone, but well credits it for everything it strides strong in. I'll be watching pocketnow in the future.
Best review of the iphone 6 on the internet, thanks for the honesty
Best review ever. Concise, unbiased, critical, and even able to make fun of it. Awesome. Keep'em coming.

Glad Michael reviewed an iOS device this time.
