Slow Wifi on iPhone 6 Plus

Anyone experiencing really slow WiFi on their new iPhone 6 Plus? Mine is super slow. When I switch off WiFi, LTE works perfectly and very snappy. I didn't have any issues with my 5s and not having issues with my iPad Air. I doubt it's an iOS 8 issue because the 5s and iPad Air are running iOS 8. WiFi also works fine on my 13" MacBook Pro Retina. It's not a router issue. Any ideas??

Does anyone from apple actually reply to posts on here! Wifi is always slow on iphone 6s, i turn the wifi off and on 3g, works great. I have checked wifi connection, and it is perfect fiber running 25-30meg! Other handsers in the houseare Samsung, iphone se and ipad with now connections issues at all. This has got to be a common problem with the iphone 6s which apple are keeping stum about! Seriously considering samsung next! No good

Same here, I thought it was my ISP. I downloaded a speedtest app on my iPhone 6 Plus and iTouch. Results showed that I was getting less than 1 Mbps download compared to over 10-2Mbps on the iTouch. I believe my brand new iPhone is defective and scheduled a Genius Bar appointment tomorrow to address this, hopefully swap a new phone since they wont have any refurbished.

Mine still seems to be working fine. There were some intermittent hiccups, but overall still going strong. I did a side-by-side with my work iPhone 5s, pages seemed to load about the same speed, maybe a hair quicker on the 6 Plus. I hope whoever takes their phone to the Genius Bar posts their response and experience so we all know what to do just in case. Keep the comments coming.
