The battery life on my iPhone 6 has been the best of all three iPhones Ive had so far. The 6 plus is supposed to be even better.

That was the main reason I didn't make the switch awhile back. The touch was no where as intuitive / advanced as the blackberry but the 6 is actually better, so far.
As for price. The phones are insane. 1,029 plus tax on a 2 year plan, that also varies on what tier you go with for service. And just over 1300 to buy it flat out. I wouldn't pay for it personally but it's a work piece of hardware. 
The price went up a 100 bucks the other day. I asked why and was told due to the dollar etc. I asked how long he had the phones in stock. Before or after the change to high he replied before. So I asked why he gets to make a 100 more per device when he bought them before the price jump shouldn't the new ones coming in be at the new rate. He didn't have an answer.

As for overage charges. That can happen with any device if the owner is not savvy enough to turn off background data using services. Locations etc. being on the road for a living I am always tethering if not hotspot available and constantly go over my 8gb a month. They love me as a customer.

You'll enjoy your phone... I got the six over new years after accidentally dropping my 5 in hot tea, after dinner and a few drinks
Wasn't planning to upgrade, but kinda forced...
It's by far their best device both hardware/software to date, but there are a lot of bugs in the software, which isn't normal for Apple... Now that IOS 8.3 is out, you might not get them... Haven't upgraded to that yet though.
My only complaint is the 8mp camera. Having such a good lens/sensor they should have gone with 10-12... I like to blow up the odd poster and you can with an 8, but the bigger MP's would help. Most people won't care about this though.
You must shoot a lot of video or have lots of movies for that size memory, it's bigger than my laptop... Lol

Still using my Samsung Rugby Flip Phone. Can't kill this thing. It's 7 years old and has been in the hot tub, been surfing, white water rafting, and driven over twice by my rubber tire backhoe. Still using the original battery as well. No fancy features but it does what I need.
The wilderness is not a stadium where I satisfy my ambition to achieve, it is the cathedral where I worship.

Those Samsung Rugby cells were badazz mofos. Tough as nails. Always thought they should have branded them 'Rigby' for the hunters. Lol

Not natively. You can side load yes but it's buggy. As for tapatalk it was dropped for bb don't uninstall or you'll have to side load the android version which is incredibly slow compared to using it on an actual android or iPhone.

Side loading has been a thing of the past for quite some time now. Android apps download directly onto Blackberrys. I actually have several versions of tapatalk on my phone to see which I liked best. They are native android apps. Not buggy at all. Very happy with my CANADIAN product.

The software. Sure. We shared buildings with RIM in Waterloo for years until they started tanking then we built a new complex in the tech and research park in Waterloo. Flip your phone over. More than likely it was made in Mexico.
