This is the only one I disagree with you one. If I can get more battery life I would GLADLY give up several mm. Battery life is practically the most important thing for my phone and the race to be thinnest is counter to what I desire. It wouldn't kill me if the iPhone 6 was 10mm if that extra 3mm was filled with battery goodness.
I agree with many of your points, but

I started running out of 140 characters a long time ago, twitter isn't the place for a novel.
>Plus it lacks motion processor that monitors my movements
You're selling this as positive for the iPhone?
You're seriously questioning why someone would want more storage on their mobile device? Clearly 640kb is enough for anyone.

How is that relevant?
* No 128GB memory option. This is absolutely important for me and it seems Apple is the only one of few company who gets this. I started running out of 64 GB long time ago.
* No TouchID equivalent which is excellent and works flowlessly on iPhones.
* No slow-mo videos at 200+ frames per second.
* From hardware perspective N6 still stuck in 32-bit world. Plus it lacks motion processor that monitors my movements and fitness data all the time without draining batteries.
* 8MP camera is actually better than 12MP and gives better low light performance. Higher MP is actually deal breaking for me (if sensor size remains same).
* At 10mm thickness, that's actually going backwards from 7mm for iPhone 6. Every mm of thickness adds perception of "hugeness" dramatically.
