Preordered a 6 on Monday for Oct 14 delivery. Had to snipe my wife's upgrade to replace my smashed up 5. Also ordered a much more protective case this time to hopefully counteract my bad case of the dropsies.

Yea! I say to you sheeple... Thou must reach deep into thy pockets for thy new phone which, lo it be not the equal of the moto x, and yea, it costs many alms, you must do as the holy apple empire commands!
From beyond mine own grave, I will reward you with many useless apps and a free album from a noted band of geezers that your parents might be into.
Go forth! To thyne best buy or Apple shrine, uh store, and wait as long as necessary to pay thy tithing, uh, get your new iPhone!
Question.
Will the iPhone 6 run better than iTunes? Because itunes is an absolute disaster of a program. It's my only apple product & if it's any indication of how macintosh makes things, then screw them. Screw them. As we speak the program is frozen. Congrats Mac, you've made the first program to actually freeze on my laptop since I bought my laptop in July 2012.
Don't get me started on how inefficient this piece of crap Apple program is. My podcasts used to update automatically. Not anymore. Now I have to click refresh several times throughout the day or it won't get updated. After I listen I get this notification that says "we've noticed you haven't listened to this podcast for awhile so we will stop automatic downloads". Hey piece of crap Apple/itunes, I just finished listening to the podcast, of course I listen to this podcast. Stop messing things up!
Crappy company, crappy product.
I had a similar experience as you except now I just stay away from apple and samsung devices. I now have a Nexus 5, by far the best phone I've ever owned. Have had it for about a year and my Android experience is so much better than the S4 I used to have. But to each their own.
And why does iTunes make it so hard to organize & add music? Why? All the other programs I use correctly & efficiently add stuff to the previous folders I made or at least in the general area (amazon doesn't put it in the exact folder, but at least in the music general area), but itunes feels the desire to make an entire new folder in a completely different area just to annoy users & make it as complicated as possible!
Oh great, I just restarted itunes (because it froze & I had to restart it) & now it's asking if I want to download version 11.4. All these problems were fixed when I found a way to install an old version, but then itunes freaked out & no longer lets me use an older & better version.
My point with all this rambling: crappy product, crappy company
I hate iphones for one reason, and one reason only. Every single photo, without fail, that I have ever seen of some pouting tart / musclehead moron / attention seeking wannabe taking a 'selfie' in the mirror has been holding one

It's funny, but apple is starting to look desperate and certainly the follower and not the leader. Samsung started making large phones how many years ago? 5?
Instead Apple decides to make a cheap but ohh so colorful 5c. Hmmm. Dud. And then the make the standard phone longer. Why not make it a baseball bat? It won't help people view pictures or video any better.
Ding dong, Samsung phones are everywhere now. Why? Because people are doing majority of their FB, Instagram, Twitter, Youtube from their phones and the would like to be able to see it better.
Took 5+ years to forecast (sarcasm) this?
Apple still makes nice products, but they have totally lost their cutting edge.
I'm done with Apple products. Every "software update" of my iPhone has resulted in hours and hours of effort recovering all the data that gets wiped. Never again.
They are both too big.
I like the size of the 5.
I'm sticking with my nasty 'ol beatup Samsung flip phone. I can call with it, receive calls, and even send and receive texts. It's perfect for me!

Likewise! Been rocking my flip-phone for 6 years now... has never let me down. I've still never touched a smart phone.
That's obvious.
I've had a iPhone for 4 years and use iTunes as little as possible. I don't remember the last time I synced my phone to my laptop.
So, to answer your question, Yes, the iPhone will run better than iTunes. iTunes suck, iPhone works really well.
That'd be my answer too. I can't remember the last time I used iTunes? You can restore your new phone from iCloud, which is the extremely easy.
Music to my ears :-)
I'm still not convinced I made the right decision with the Plus, but the better battery and OIS were too enticing not to try. The iPhone serves as my camera 99% of the time, with my only disappointments coming in very low light conditions. I'm hoping the OIS will fix this.
Received a txt today from AT&T that my iPhone 6 should arrive on Friday. The initial estimated date of arrival was mid October and I was pretty disappointed.

Only for non-moving objects. If there is motion blur, there is nothing OIS can do. Only a better aperture and sensor will help.
6 PLUS, 128 GB.
Go BIG or go home.
I've got big hands and I take a lot of pictures of my BAE's assets. The Plus 128 GB is a no-brainer.
You SCRAWNY runners are probably best off sticking to the normal 6 or even 5c, because it isn't so heavy for you guys to carry around, lol.

Isn't the 5c heavier than the 6+?

Nope, it's heavier than the 6, but not the 6+.
