I agree that the John Gruber post @ Daring Fireball is a must-read. He never fails to amaze when it comes to his longer, thought-provoking blog posts.
Gruber is the man.
how the heck do these guys get their iphones ahead of launch day?
They are review units that Apple lends them.
“Lend” as in “always have to return the unit to Apple” after writing the review? Where’s your “review unit?”
They only get a week, both Gruber’s and Dalrymple’s review mentions which device they have pre-ordered themselves… See? They are just like us (minus the beard, including the Heineken love)
Still waiting for my golden ticket like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
All these guys got their iPhones during Apple’s press event last Tuesday.
WHY HAVEN’T ANY REVIEWS/REVIEWERS TRIED TYPING/TEXTING ONE HANDILY WITH THE IPHONE 6 PLUS… I’ve been searching the internet for just one review of someone texting/typing with one hand with the 6 Plus and no one seems to care or even to try smh… Am I the only one who does a quick reply to a text/email with one hand?
If it’s anything like the Note 3, you can text with one hand, just not easily or comfortably. But this is a bit thinner than the note 3, so maybe it’ll be different.
Thanks!
