A Review of Apple iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus | InfoZonePK

iPhone6 & iPhone6 Plus

Apple introduces the new iPhone device this year, the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus with larger screens rather than its previous versions with 4.7″ and 5.5″ respectively.

iPhone 6:

People can’t wait to get their hands on the latest gadget of Apple, iPhone 6, ever since the rumors of its launch has been buzzing around. Apple launched iPhone 6 in mid-September. People have already been lined up for iPhone 6 in front of various outlets of Apple.

iPhone 6 is not just bigger, it’s better in every way. Despite of its larger body, it is dramatically thinner. More powerful, but remarkably power efficient. It has a smooth metal surface that seamlessly meets the new retina HD display. iPhone 6 has a screen size up to 4.7 inches to a feature of 1704 x 960 resolution display which is an upgrade from the 4 inch 1136 x 640 resolution display.

iPhone 6 will be less prone to damage for its sapphire crystal display. It comes with a new feedback feature which allows the screen to lightly vibrate when touched for screen keyboards as it provides feedback  that you are actually typing on the screen rather than just tapping the glass.

Built on 64-bit desktop class architecture,  the new A8 chip delivers more power, even while driving a larger display. The M8 motion coprocessor efficiently gathers data from advanced sensors and a new barometer. And with increased battery life, iPhone 6 lets you do more, for longer than ever.

The new camera on the new iPhone has an electronic image stabilization tech to offer benefits of optical image stabilization to eliminate any noticeable blue from the hand movement in the images while keeping the camera component slim. The camera will also be able to take in more light when capturing photographs to boost overall image quality.

iOS 8 is the world most advanced mobile operating system. And with incredible new features and capabilities designed to make the most of a larger display, iOS 8 just doesn’t work seamlessly with iPhone 6. It makes every experience feel bigger and better. It has fatest LTE download speeds and it supports more LTE bands than any other smartphone so you can roam in more places. And when connected to Wi-Fi, you will get up to 3x faster speeds.

iPhone 6 Plus:

To say that Apple is doing something differently is an understatement. With 5.5 inch iPhone 6 plus, the company introduced a new high-end phone with a complete redesign and much larger screen than any iPhone that came before. Even though its Apple’s first attempt at building larger phones, it’s not breaking new ground. It feels more like company is catching up than innovating. Even with slightly larger screen, iPhone 6 plus remains comfortable to hold. It is one of the best smart phone you can buy right now with fast performance, a great display, an elegant new design and a much needed software update.

Despite of its larger size, iPhone 6 plus is thin at just 7.1 mm. it also comes with typically accomplished design. The glass and aluminium merge seamlessly together. iPhone 6 plus feels great in your hand like a smooth pebble. It’s well balanced and light too at just 172g. you’ll happily hold it for hours and screen is perfect for browsing the internet or watching movies. The size means you’ll struggle to reach the whole screen though. It has the power button on the right hand side, about an inch and a half from the top.

No one can quite match Apple’s superb build quality. But there is one area where Apple couldn’t quite get everything to fit smoothly into the body of iPhone 6 plus. The camera juts out of the back so it can fit the sensor with the addition of optical image stabilization. It only comes out slightly and doesn’t snag on material as you put it in your pocket.

iPhone 6 Plus does boast of a couple of unique features however. It is first iPhone to pack a full HD display, plus it’s bigger body means it houses a larger battery. It supports A8 64-bit architecture, 1GB of RAM, M8 motion coprocessor and 8MP rear camera. iPhone 6 plus doesn’t come cheap as it is one of the expensive handsets around.

SIM-free the 16GB iPhone 6 Plus carries a lofty price tag of $749, £619, AU$999 – and that’s just the start.

Apple has ditched the 32GB variant for both the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, with the next storage level coming in at 64GB, and for the 5.5-inch iPhone that equals $849, £699, AU$1129.

The good news for storage fans is that Apple has finally introduced a 128GB model – which may quieten those whining about the lack of a microSD slot – but it will cost you a small fortune. $949, £789, AU$1249 to be exact.

Finally, we need to address the issue that has gone viral – the bendable iPhone. Apple has responded by claiming that there have only been nine cases so far and we believe it. We’ve had both the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus in tight jeans while cycling and for more than a week in day-to-day use. We’ve experienced no sign of bending at all. 

Time will tell if this is a valid complaint or not but in our experience they appear as solid, if not more, than many other phones on the market. This has also been verified by independent tests.
