The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus came out a couple of years ago, and in the last little while, upgrades and updates have made other older iPhones obsolete, bringing people to ask the question: Is the iPhone 6 Plus even worth using anymore?

I'm under the strong impression that "if it ain't broke, don't fix it!", but what do you think? We're chatting about the iPhone through the years in the iMore forums and would love to hear your opinion!

My wife likes her Android but it had an accident. She would like to try iOS on a used phone for a few months before deciding between the new iPhone and Pixel 2/Note 8 in the fall. I was thinking about buying her a used 6 or 6 plus. Is the 6 still good for day to day use with most normal usage patterns? Posted via the iMore App for Android

Some people claim that the iPhone 6 Plus is still great, citing that others are still attached and loyal to their iPhone 5s...

Yup, people still use the 5s like crazy and it has worse specs so go ahead, the 6+ has better software and battery, I do know most people who use the 6/6s/7 end up getting a battery case so you might want to consider that as well.

While others say that their iPhone 6 Plus still has an "outstanding battery life", despite it's age...

My 6 plus has outstanding battery life. I highly recommend it.
