The iPhone 6 Plus is the larger model of the new phone, and will cost more than the regular iPhone 6.

Both models are being released on Friday, September 19 in the United States, United Kingdom, and other first wave countries.

AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, U.S. Cellular, Verizon, and C Spire will sell both models from Friday while Alaska Communications, Appalachian Wireless, Bluegrass Cellular, Cellcom, Nex-Tech Wireless, Silver State Communications, Strata, and Syringa Wireless will sell the models starting on September 26.

Gotta be Mobile notes that the Plus is the more popular model. “We expect stores, particularly Apple stores, to have ample iPhone 6 stock. The iPhone 6 Plus is probably going to be a little harder to find given the demand,” it said.

It’s also been reported that iPhone Plus pre-orders from some stores are sold out, especially in the United Kingdom.

“Pre-orders began on Friday, and the iPhone 6 Plus sold out almost instantly. It’s currently showing a 3-4 week delivery estimate - but the 4.7” iPhone 6 is still available with delivery in 7-10 working days,” reported the Daily Mirror.

Both iPhone models come in one of three colors--Gold, Silver, and Gray--and with one of three GB capacities--16, 64, and 128 GB.

The phones start at $199 (regular) and $299 (Plus) but increase with more GM. For the jump to 64 GB, the price jumps to $299 and $399; for the jump to 128 GB, the price jumps to $399 and $499. All prices are contingent on a two-year contract.

Apple has made two different cases available so far--a leather one and a silicone one. There are two different sizes, one for each mode. The leather case comes in black, soft pink, brown, dark blue, or red.

The iPhone 6 leather case is $45 while the Plus case is $49.
