I just want a bigger battery in a physically smaller phone. An iPhone 5 weighs 4 oz. I'd be happy with a slightly thicker and heavier 5 oz phone with much longer battery life. That's as opposed to an iPhone 6. I now have one because it was "free" with trade in of my old iPhone 5. But I didn't really want the larger size. I do concede that I'm the minority view. Most people really like the larger screen sizes.

Why not just get a battery case? I've got the Lenmar, ~$30 on Amazon. Couldn't be happier

  The problem is that a battery case may be too heavy for where I carry my phone (in front pants pocket). Here's the math: 4 oz "base" phone with bigger (by 1 or 2 oz) battery == happy 4 oz phone + 5.6 oz battery/case == too heavy? I actually carried my iPhone 5 w/o a case for quite a while, it's doable. The silicone case that Apple sells for the iPhone 6 is really light and really helps the grip.
