I can look at the road and type without looking at my phone. That's how awesome 5/5s size is.

Had to reboot this morning after the sound packed in. I tried to play music through Bluetooth in the car but although the track was playing, no sound came out. Switched off the car and tried through phone speaker, still no sound so obviously software related.
First time it's happened, but that's now 2 big issues over 2 days for me.

I'd say that if you can type a message while driving and not looking at the phone, it's you that's awesome and not the phone
couldnt agree more.
my frustration was that home launcher keeps crashing and phone would reboot randomly. Sometimes would just switch off during operation.
needless to say loving the 6s a lot. 3d touch is bit weird. touch ID is awesome.
looking for a nice cover now as phone feels too thin.

Cygnett work mate gives it some bulk. Highly protective too. Nice rubberized finish makes it easy to hold onto.
My brother in law got one for his S4. Left the phone on the roof of his car and only realized after he had driven 2 blocks up the road. It was still where he left it.

I'm playing with it. Works great in Instagram for previewing profiles etc.
Lots of support for it.
A little clumsy with one handed use though.

Works well in email when there's a link, quick look is so much easier without actually leaving the Mail app.

As time goes on more and more apps will start to integrate with it.

Already impressed by the amount of integration, most apps of mine have it.
Depends on use case. For quick start some apps are awesome with it, like Waze start and take me home/work. For peeking it's also exceptionally useful in e.g. whatsapp. All in in all it's just more convenient for quick look at things or launching with a specific command (kinda like having right click on machine). All in all it's not revolutionary(right click) but something u kinda adopt and learn to expect because it uses skills u may already have vs pc's.
I sometimes use it to open the app switcher instead of double-tapping the home button..
You force-touch the left-hand-side of the screen and swipe a bit to the right.

Finding this tricky, maybe due to the tempered glass protector.

I'm noticing excessive distortion from the camera lens. Objects closer the sides look distorted. Not like this on my 5s.

Here you can see that the Merc is distorted.
And here you can see the building being distorted.
Hmmm.

Yeah, I usually forget it exists and just launch the app normally.

I'll take some pics tomorrow and compare (I don't have any landscape type pics at present).

Your experience is really not making it very easy for me to consider this as my next phone! You must be rather sad
. Especially considering how much you liked the 5SPostmanPot

Sigh. I'll test with some straight lines tomorrow.
