That's not true because Nokia has that feature on
its VZW (NowRetired) LumiaIcon (Lumia929) &
Samsung has it on their MobilePhones since
launching the GalaxyS5 & Beyond (that includes
the Note Series as well as the Galaxy S Series
the GalaxyS6 is about 5.1 Inches & the GalaxyS6Edge+ is about 5.7 Inches
And, as I recall, the iPhone6S+ is about 5.5
Inches & the iPhone6S is about 4.7 Inches
Apple could have this feature on both modles, but it chooses not to
As I understand it, this feature is rumored to
help in catching/viewing Video and/or taking pictures
I'm sure others, who have the iPhone6+ and/or
iPhone6S+ can ChimeIn on it. I am particularly
interested to hear from TotallyBlind users of the
iPhone6+ and/or iPhone6S+, and how it functions
for them. It would be Great if they had an
iPhone6 and/or iPhone6S to Compare&Contrast
TheDifferences With & WithOut the Optical Image Stablization feature

Optical image stabilization isn't the only thing
you get for that extra hundred dollars for the
6S plus. I don't know how it is accomplished. It
is possible that they need the larger size to
make it happen. I don't know how big the Samsung
phones are either. But I do know that for me as
a blind person, optical image stabilization is not necessary or useful.

would like to have something the same size as
the 5S. The fourss, or the iPod touch, which is
the same dimensions I think as far as width and
height are concerned, are OK too. But I wish
they would do something for those of us with
smaller hands. Oh well. There was a rumor that
said they were going to come out with a new one
that was the same size as the 5S. But so far,
as you know that has not happened. Plus, if
they do, it probably won't have all of the same features as the larger phones.

cutout of a Plus, with some popsicle sticks
taped to the back to give it structure. I
carried it for a day, then attached my iPhone 5
to it for the next day. Both days, I was amazed
to find that the cardboard Plus felt large in
my hand, but small in my pocket. It's very thin
and light, and is longer and narrower than you
might imagine. Not being a more boxy shape lets
it rest in my pocket better, and I had no
problems with it the two days I tested it with
my model. While not an actual phone, this gave
me confidence that the Plus will be just fine,
which is good as it's the one I was leaning
towards. The better battery life, larger
braille input area, landscape mode for apps,
and image stabilization are all things I'm looking forward to.

template I used, and carry around a cardboard
version of a Plus, to see how it'll work for
you. Yes, it might require minor adjustments in
position or grip, but there are definite
advantages and I encourage you to consider the
change to a Plus as just that: a change, rather
than looking for something the same size as the
5S but with better internals. Of course, if the
plusses don't outweigh the minuses for you,
there's nothing wrong with the 6S, that's why
Apple makes both sizes. Give the Plus a shot
though; you might be pleasantly surprised.

obviously subjective, but I do wonder how the
size of the 6Plus and 6S Plus phones makes a
difference in every day usage for VoiceOver
users. On the plus side, perhaps for folks who
use Braille screen input, the larger screen
real estate you have to work with might make
typing easier. On the other hand, are folks
finding the phones easy to carry when out and
about? Do they fit comfortably in your pockets?
I use my iPhone 5S on my commutes and often I
donâ€â„„¢t even need to take it out of my
pocket to use the touch screen. I have a
transit widget that I check to monitor bus
departure times, and I use apps like
BlindSquare and Google Maps as well. And of
course, I can listen to music or audiobooks
while commuting, too. If I couldnâ€â„„¢t carry
the phone in my pocket and had to carry it in a
backpack or briefcase, that would be quite a
bit less convenient for me. How do you folks
feel about this—for those wwho’ve used the
lahe larger phones for a year now, do you
eventually adjust to the larger screen size?
