Apple iPhone 6 Plus against the competition: size comparison

Apple today unveiled not one, but two bigger iPhone smartphones - the 4.7" iPhone 6 and the larger, 5.5-inch iPhone 6 Plus. Cupertino's first foray, at least at first sight, looks like a pretty important first step into devices that directly stands up to the fierce Android competition in terms of size, at least.

The largest up to date, the iPhone 6 Plus, directly stacks up against such Android behemoths, such as the LG G3, the newly-unveiled Samsung Galaxy Note 4, the Galaxy Note Edge, the Galaxy S5, and the other usual suspects, such as the Sony Xperia Z2/Xperia Z3, the HTC One (M8), and, of course, a multitude of countless other Android smartphones that employ screens way over 5 inches.

But how large exactly is the new iPhone 6 Plus compared to the competition? Well, we bet you are quite eager to check out (we surely are), so we decided to make an improvised size-centric showdown and see which one's the bigger and more dwarfs its rivals. Check the comparison below and feel free to share any of your thoughts you might have.
