Apple set a new record this week, selling more than 10 million iPhones in one weekend. But it was the iPhone 6 Plus, with its five-and-a-half inch screen, that made news.

This week, Apple announced that it set a new iPhone sales record, pushing more than 10 million units into the palms of eager consumers in one weekend.

But it was the bigger model, the iPhone 6 Plus, that made news with its five-and-a-half inch screen -- much bigger than anything Apple has released before.

So it would appear that size does matter when it comes to phones and phablets.
