IPhone 6 and IPhone 6 Plus Launched

iPhone 6




The much awaited iteration of Apple iPhone smartphones, the iPhone 6 launched sticking to all the rumors it was subjected to in the past few months. Apple finally decided to make a significant change in its design theory, the most noticable and talked about being the upgraded 4.7 inch display as compared to the 4 inch display in the previous generation iPhone 5 and 5s. The presence of rounded edges remind us of the iPod touch.

16, 64 or 128GB storage

A8 processor (64-bit)

8MP iSight camera (rear) with 1.5 micron pixels and optical image stabilization, 1.2 megapixel FaceTime camera (front)

Pros

Lack of customization in IOS remains.

Lack of a full HD 1080p display.

iPhone 6 Plus




Apple launched not one, but two premium smartphones today, and the iPhone 6 Plus is the one many probably were skeptical even existed just a few short months ago. With a screen size measuring 5.5-inches across the diagonal, iPhone 6 Plus is ready to compete against the likes of Samsung Galaxy Note series, LG G3 and other 'phablets' present in the market.
