In 2011, Samsung created the first "phablet" with the original Galaxy Note.

Read on, for our hands-on thoughts.

Apple may have taken its sweet time jumping into the big-screen smartphone game, but you can't accuse the company of doing things halfway. The iPhone 6 Plus isn't just bigger than older iPhones – it absolutely dwarfs them. Join Gizmag, as we take a quick first look at the first Apple phablet.

The iPhone 6 Plus is Apple's biggest smartphone by far, but it has quite a few rivals on the Android side of the fence. Let's compare the 6 Plus' features and specs with those of one of the top phablets of 2014, the LG G3.

For the last few years, Apple's iPhones were looking very small next to the competition. Those days are now over, as Apple is launching two bigger iPhones. Let's see how the bigger of those two compares to its most obvious rival, the Samsung Galaxy Note 4.

Apple has taken the wraps off of two new smartphones in its popular iPhone line. The new devices, known as the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, feature 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch displays, are powered by the company's in-house A8 chip and are the thinnest iPhones ever.
