iPhone 6

[TheBuilder]

Have anyone tried deploying to iPhone 6 (plus) yet? How does it look like, considering they have different screen resolution and you can't edit system setting for those devices in UDK?

Well, I'll be receiving my i6+ in a couple of weeks so I'll post then if no one else does. So far though, I can say everything I'm using works on iOS 8, on other devices (phew).

Might get my hands on a normal iPhone 6 in a few weeks for testing.

Technically, you could set iPhone6 specific settings; however, it's a bit "hacky".
If you treat the base SystemSettingsMobile as your highest specced device and then config "downward" in all the other existing sections such as SystemSettingsIPad3, etc, etc - then any new platforms should use the base level high spec settings by default. This is a better way to go in my opinion as it doesn't rely on UDK being up to date.

This only works if you're willing/able to set iPhone6 and iPhone6 Plus to the same settings obviously.

I've not actually tested this - but it should work in theory.

Good thinking

But if I remember correctly, iPhone 5S used the settings from iPhone 5 before UDK got support for 5S. So I would assume that iPhone 6 would pull its settings from iPhone 5S?

[WilliamDocherty]

Maybe it does, not tested that - is it documented anywhere what the fallback use is?

[Spoondog]

Well had a quick 2 minute test - everything I'm doing seems to work on iPhone 6 Plus. Haven't had time to check whether it uses the base mobile system settings or the 5S ones.

.. and startup is blisteringly fast.

Nice to hear! Does things look acceptable after the automatic upscale?

[Spoondog]

Looked acceptable to me, it was a little hard to tell though because really strong DOF was enabled (just because I haven't tested on anything higher than a 4S and it was disabled on that and earlier devices)

[Spoondog]

Appears that it does use the 5S settings (once I stuck some 5S overrides in my system settings to turn off DOF, it changed it on the iphone 6). Upscale looks acceptable, though it'd be nice to up that a bit.
