Apple iPhone 6 Plus Introduction :
Apple
has launched the 5.5-inch
iPhone 6 Plus. Along with larger screens and a completely new
iPad-style design with an ultra thin body and rounded corners, the phone offer
faster processors, better cameras, and Apple's new Apple Pay payment system.
Apple iPhone 6 Plus Features :
It has
64-bit A8 chip and general design. The iPhone 6 Plus is slightly thicker at 7.1mm. Apple's
iPhone 6 Plus also has three major differentiating factors: optical image stabilization for the camera, and a longer battery life,
and an iPad-style landscape mode that
displays more content on the screen.
Though the iPhone 6 Plus has optical image stabilization, the
phone got some major
camera improvements in
form of sensor upgrades, improved tone mapping, better noise reduction, and new
"Focus Pixel" technology, which improves the phone's ability to
select autofocus points. For videos, there's a new 240fps slo-mo option,
along with support for shooting in 1080p at 60fps. The front-facing camera was
also upgraded, with an f/2.2
aperture that
lets in more light and new
burst mode capabilities. The phone
have an impressive new "Retina HD Display," the iPhone 6 Plus featuring a resolution of 1920 x 1080 (401 ppi).
Design wise, the phone more closely resemble the iPad and the
iPod touch than the iPhone 5s. It has soft,
rounded corners and
a curved glass screen that melds smoothly into the thin metal
body of the device. The volume buttons on the left side of the device are now
pill-shaped, and the power button is located on the right side of the device
for easier one-handed use. To
further make its devices easier to use one-handed, Apple has added in a new
double tap home button gesture called "Reachability,"
which moves items from the top of the screen to the bottom of the screen for
quick access.
Other new features in the iPhone 6 Plus include WiFi calling support, faster 802.11ac WiFi, and
support for Voice
over LTE (VoLTE).
The iPhone 6 Plus is available in 16, 64, and 128 GB
capacities and will be priced $100 higher at $299, $399, and $499,
respectively. The phone is available in Space Gray, Gold, and Silver.
