i have a 6, if given the chance, i'd get a 6+. its really not too big, it can fit in your pocket. at the time, there werent many available options for me and i still had to put in an order for mine(128gb). durability wise, well i drink a lot and drop it, have been using a spigen(old version of this)case for it. i've knocked over my beer on it, while at the pub, and it was soaked. im having MINOR problems with the charger not being read, but it can read 3rd party chargers/cables NO PROBLEM. its easier to manage playlists (IMO) with itunes, unless you stream lots of it(spotify is OP as shit)
