Apple may have well come up with the blueprint of the modern smartphone, but when it comes to extra-large devices—or what we've come to begrudgingly refer to as 'phablets'—Samsung led the charge. The Galaxy Note, released in 2011, is that original phable...

Familiar quality design with stronger aluminum build. Outstanding performance from A9 SoC. Excellent camera. 3D Touch seems genuinely useful. Improved water resistance.
Apple is sticking to 16GB for the base model, forcing you to pay more on an already expensive device to get decent storage (no microSD slot either).
The iPhone 6s Plus packs a 2,750mAh battery which is actually slightly smaller than last year's. Given the improvements in iOS 9, however, you're probably not going to notice any significant drop in battery life. Should you find yourself running low on j...
