With launch-day support from a number of banks and vendors, Apple Pay was billed as a replacement for the wallet.

The iPhone 6 plus included, for the first time, a near field communication (NFC) chip which, in conjunction with Touch ID, enabled a fingerprint-authenticated payment system dubbed "Apple Pay". It also included an improved M8 "motion co-processor" which now added support for a new barometer sensor, which measured air pressure as a proxy for changes in altitude. The iPhone 6 plus shipped with an Apple-designed A8 chip, which like the A7 was based on a 64-bit architecture, and included improvements both to performance and energy usage. As with previous resolution changes, the iPhone 6 plus maintained several legacy modes for non-optimized apps: those optimized for the iPhone 5 and 5s would be scaled up, and older apps would be both scaled and letterboxed. Apple chose to render at 3x, to a logical resolution of 1242x2208, and then downsample to 1080p. In an interesting approach, the physical and logical resolution of the screen differed: the physical resolution was 1920x1080 (1080p), too large for the 2x rendering of other retina displays, but too small to accomodate 3x rendering. The larger screen maintained the aspect ratio of the iPhone 5s and increased the pixel density, resulting in a significantly higher resolution. While the iPhone 6 plus was significantly wider and taller, it was also thinner so thin in fact, that it forced Apple into another design trade-off: the improved camera could not be mounted flush with the otherwise smooth case backing.

The change in dimensions was necessitated by the need to increase the size of the screen (to 5.5", in-line with industry competition) and the desire to maintain the existing 16x9 aspect ratio, and was not without consequence a new software gesture (the home button double tap) was introduced to allow access to the top half of the screen for smaller hands, and for the first time the power button was moved from the top to the right side of the case, in what proved to be a fairly controversial change.
But the most significant change to the iPhone 6 plus was to its dimensions it was dramatically larger than any previous iPhone, and represented Apple's entry into the "Phablet" market. Introduced in September 2014 alongside the smaller iPhone 6, the iPhone 6 plus represented the most radical change to the industrial design of the iPhone since the iPhone 4 it shifted away from the hard edges of the previous four years back to the rounded corners of the iPhone 3GS, while maintaining the aluminum backing of the iPhone 5.
