Other consumer may think that the bigger iPhone 6 is too much to handle on their hands and if you're one of those, then your iPhone 6 screen size problem will be finally over by buying a bigger thumb. Wait? What??!!! Buying a thumb! Are you serious?!
If you feel the 5.5-inch display on the iPhone 6 plus is too big to use with just one hand, Japan’s Thanko Inc. has a solution for you.
The Tokyo-based gadget maker’s “Yubi Nobiiru,” available for ¥1,480 ($13.63), is a thumb-shaped stylus to be worn on the finger while using large-sized smartphones. It adds about 15 millimeters to the length of one’s thumb, allowing easy access to every corner of the display.
Yubi Nobiiru, designed in Japan and manufactured in China, first became available in May. It is embedded with a conductor for easy interface recognition.
“This wasn’t specifically designed for the new iPhone but for overall smartphones because screen sizes are getting larger and difficult to handle,” a spokesman at the company said.
Thanko explains on its website that the thumbstall is perfect to use on trains, since smartphone users only have one hand available with the other holding on to a strap. Its colorless prototype “looked like a zombie finger” according to the company, but the finalized product uses a flesh-colored silicone for a natural look.
Yubi Nobiiru weighs 11 grams. One size fits all.

When we first saw this article, we rrally find it hilarious at some point. Just think of this: Just imagine bringing an extra thumb in the public just to solve the screen size issue of the iPhone 6. But at some point, specifically scientifically speaking, the ergonomically designed thumb may take away the stress on your hand holding the phone for a very long time.
