iPhone 6 and 6 plus screen sizes in pixels?
If you are upgrading your application to support iPhone6 and iPhone6+ and you do not wish for your application to scale on these devices you need to update your launch images to include:
iPhone Portrait:
- Retina HD 5.5 - 1242x2208px
- Retina HD 4.7 - 750x1334px
and or:
iPhone Landscape
- Retina HD 5.5 - 2208x1242px
Please note that although the screen size for the iPhone6+ is 1080x1920, it is using downscaled renders: https://twitter.com/stroughtonsmith/status/509438167280549888
iPhone 6 (Plus) screen size
It seems like you didn't provide correct launch images to your app. When there is no correct launch images set, the app will run like on iPhone 5/5S, that's why you are having these confusing results while logging. iPhone 6 screen size is 375x667 px scale x2, iPhone 6+ 414x736 px scale x3. So, if you want to set launch image for iPhone 6 it should have 750x1334 px size, and 1242x2208 for iPhone 6+ respectively. Good Luck!
EDIT:
As rmaddy mentioned in the comments, it's better to use launch screen storyboard with proper layout constraints to fit all screens, than having bunch of images for all screens(which also increases the app size).

Predicted
According to the Apple website the iPhone 6 Plus will have 401 pixels-per-inch and be 1920 x 1080. The smaller version of the iPhone 6 will be 1334 x 750 with 326 PPI.
So, assuming that information is correct, we can write a media query for the iPhone 6:
@media screen
and (min-device-width : 1080px)
and (max-device-width : 1920px)
and (min-resolution: 401dpi)
and (device-aspect-ratio:16/9)
{ }
@media screen
and (min-device-width : 750px)
and (max-device-width : 1334px)
and (min-resolution: 326dpi)
{ }
Note that device-aspect-ratio will be deprecated in http://dev.w3.org/csswg/mediaqueries-4/ and replaced with aspect-ratio
Min-width and max-width may be something like 1704 x 960.
Apple Watch (speculative)
Specs on the Watch are still a bit speculative since (as far as I'm aware) there has been no official spec sheet yet. But Apple did mention in this press release that the Watch will be available in two sizes.. 38mm and 42mm.
Further assuming.. that those sizes refer to the screen size rather than the overall size of the Watch face these media queries should work.. And I'm sure you could give or take a few millimeters to cover either scenario without sacrificing any unwanted targeting because..
@media (!small) and (damn-small), (omfg) { }
or
@media
(max-device-width:42mm)
and (min-device-width:38mm)
{ }
It's worth noting that Media Queries Level 4 from W3C currently only available as a first public draft, once available for use will bring with it a lot of new features designed with smaller wearable devices like this in mind.
iPhone 6 Plus resolution confusion: Xcode or Apple's website? for development
The iPhone 6+ renders internally using @3x assets at a virtual resolution of 2208×1242 (with 736x414 points), then samples that down for display. The same as using a scaled resolution on a Retina MacBook — it lets them hit an integral multiple for pixel assets while still having e.g. 12 pt text look the same size on the screen.
So, yes, the launch screens need to be that size.
The maths:
The 6, the 5s, the 5, the 4s and the 4 are all 326 pixels per inch, and use @2x assets to stick to the approximately 160 points per inch of all previous devices.
The 6+ is 401 pixels per inch. So it'd hypothetically need roughly @2.46x assets. Instead Apple uses @3x assets and scales the complete output down to about 84% of its natural size.
In practice Apple has decided to go with more like 87%, turning the 1080 into 1242. No doubt that was to find something as close as possible to 84% that still produced integral sizes in both directions — 1242/1080 = 2208/1920 exactly, whereas if you'd turned the 1080 into, say, 1286, you'd somehow need to render 2286.22 pixels vertically to scale well.
Detecting iPhone 6/6+ screen sizes in point values
The first screen will be the device screen, Note that a launch images for the new phones have to be added before, otherwise the app is running in Zoomed Mode for older apps :
Here is the code I used to check this out. Note: This only works with version iOS 8 and higher:
UIScreen *mainScreen = [UIScreen mainScreen];
NSLog(@"Screen bounds: %@, Screen resolution: %@, scale: %f, nativeScale: %f",
NSStringFromCGRect(mainScreen.bounds), mainScreen.coordinateSpace, mainScreen.scale, mainScreen.nativeScale);
Code for detecting iPhone 6 Plus:
#define IS_PAD (UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad)
#define IS_PHONE (UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone)
-(BOOL)iPhone6PlusDevice{
if (!IS_PHONE) return NO;
if ([UIScreen mainScreen].scale > 2.9) return YES; // Scale is only 3 when not in scaled mode for iPhone 6 Plus
return NO;
}
or
-(BOOL) iPhone6PlusUnZoomed{
if ([self iPhone6PlusDevice]){
if ([UIScreen mainScreen].bounds.size.height > 720.0) return YES; // Height is 736, but 667 when zoomed.
}
return NO;
}
Note: If you are checking for iPhone 6 Plus, to adjust the user interface then don´t rely on .nativeScale, because the simulator and actual device give different results. Due to the comment below. Scale is a CGFloat and thus, code should not check equality, because some floats values may never be equal.
After adding Launch Screen you can utilise the new iPhone sizes, otherwise your app will still look scaled.

Note: Upload LaunchImages otherwise the app will run scaled and not show correct scaling, or screen sizes.
Why is iPhone 6 Plus' screen size 375x667 on real device?
Check that the device isn't set to the zoomed resolution mode in Settings > Display & Brightness > View.
Setting the phone to a zoomed resolution will result in a different point size to be returned for the screen, which seems to be what you are experiencing.
iPhone 6 plus dimensions showing up as 375.0 x 667.0?
Your device has the Display Zoom set to Zoomed under Settings->Display & Brightness.
Quoting a post from the Apple Developer Forum:
If the phone is set for zoomed mode, you get either the iPhone 5S screen size (on iPhone 6) or the iPhone 6 size (on iPhone 6 Plus). Keep in mind that on iPhone 6 Plus in zoomed mode you still get a 3x screen, and thus your 3x assets are used.
