Today's big Apple Inc. AAPL event is in full swing, and the company got the party started by unveiling two new new iPhones: the 6 and 6 Plus.
The latter will start at a price point of $299 with a contract, while the iPhone 6 will cost $199. From a better camera to improved battery life, there's a lot that has the Twitter world talking. Some fans were in a great mood:
BATTERY LIFE IS SO KEY ON THE ROAD, GREAT TO HEAR #APPLELIVE #IPHONE6.

Apple CEO Tim Cook even got in on the action:
I'm backstage and this is my first tweet from my iPhone 6. It's amazing. You're going to love it.

Others...well, they weren't as happy:
So there's 2 models of the #iphone6 One for people with big hands and the other for people with bigger hands.

"the longest lasting battery" I'll believe it when I see it #iPhone6
— brennanaa (@brennaleigh21) September 9, 2014
the #iphone6 starts at $199 ... including a blood sample, a 10 year contract and the rights to your first born son.

Personally I'd feel like I had an overweight #iphone6 if I told people it was a "plus."

Come to think of it, even with all this #iphone6 hype, if the phone data plan is still at 3/4GB limit, what's the point?

Well hopefully the #iphone6 works better than Apple's live stream of the event announcing the new iPhone.

But at least they're having fun:
Relieved the #iPhone6 doesn't spontaneously generate flowers, as widely rumoured. Our business would suffer.

The #iPhone6 is so much taller and thinner... than me! I hate her. Honestly I don't even think that's her real hair.

I really wish Stefon could be the one describing the new #iphone6 "It's got everything..." pic.twitter.com/xT7bhIRXXo
